This is best of 3 quarter-final match, and the winner will play against the winner of Imperial/GODSENT.

Virtus.pro came from the high seed, so i don't have stats for them, but Windigo played three matches and won two, but also lost one. They had a round difference of +33 and 6 points.

Pistol performance goes to Windigo gaming with 48,7% total over Virtus.pro who have 39,2%.

If we look at the maps played, we can clearly see that Mirage, Inferno, and Train benefit VP, while Train, Cobble, and Mirage benefit WG. Both teams played quite the amount of matches in April, VP had more lost games, but also the opponents were stronger and better ranked. I have a firm belief that Virtus will do their best to win this game, since the final tournament of these series is held in Kiev, Ukraine and has over $300k prize pool, so Virtus.pro likes those events, and we all know they perform better on LAN. These two teams played five times together, and the score is 2-3 in favor of Windigo gaming.

My bet here will be a win for Virtus.pro. I dare not to predict the correct score, but i am mostly confident that if VP doesn't win this, they are in big trouble.

Good luck to all who gamble.
