Cloud9 and Astralis will compete for the right to make it to the playoffs of IEM Cologne 2022, and at the same time to go to the final of group B. Frankly speaking, I don’t believe that the Danish team will have enough strength for this victory, because, as practice shows, Cloud9 for the Danes are an impassable option.
In turn, the Russian team had a great start in the championship, breaking the Outsiders. And if Cloud9 continues in the same spirit, it can easily complete the minimum task.
In any case, Astralis is experiencing old problems that it has not been able to deal with for half a year. And if it still works out with FURIA, then I can hardly believe that the Danes will be able to beat a more serious opponent.
Form Cloud9
The fourth team in the world ranking from the last one became the winner of IEM Dallas 2022, showing a really cool game and champion character in Dallas.
However, further Cloud9 managed to blunder at the Roobet Cup 2022, where they stopped at the semi-final stage. Moreover, in the playoffs, the Russian team began to play too slowly and predictably, for which they almost paid the price from 9z, but lost without a chance to BIG.
As for the start at IEM Cologne 2022, here the team dealt with the Outsiders in class. And if Cloud9 is capable of such comebacks, then I think the guys are fine.
Latest Cloud9 results:
- Victory over Complexity with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over Astralis with a score of 2:0.
- 2:1 victory over 9z.
- Defeated by BIG with a score of 0:2.
- The victory over the Outsiders with a score of 2:0.
Best Cloud9 Maps:
- Ancient - 100% win rate.
- Vertigo - 80% of wins.
- Mirage - 71% of wins.
- Overpass - 67% of wins.
- Inferno - 60% of wins.
- Dust 2 - 50% win rate.
It is worth recalling that the Russian team does not play on the Nuke map.
Astralis shape
The twelfth team of the world ranking also reached the semi-finals of the same Roobet Cup 2022, which cannot be mentioned, because a nervous tic is coming.
Well, at the start of their journey as part of IEM Cologne 2022, the Danish team managed to lose to 00NATION, it seems, without getting together. Well, at least after Astralis thought of closing Complexity and BIG, thus making it to the main stage.
Here the Danes confidently dealt with FURIA, leaving few questions behind. But you need to understand what form those Brazilians are in now, just as k0nfig does not shoot like that every day.
Astralis latest results:
- Defeat from FaZe Clan with a score of 1:2.
- Lost to 00NATION with a score of 6:16.
- Victory over Complexity with a score of 2:0.
- Victory over BIG with a score of 2:1.
- Victory over FURIA with a score of 2:0.
Best Astralis cards:
- Nuke - 83% of wins.
- Overpass - 67% of wins.
- Inferno - 67% of wins.
- Ancient - 55% win rate
- Mirage - 50% of wins.
In turn, the Danish team is increasingly refusing the Vertigo card.
Match statistics Cloud9 — Astralis
Within the framework of the current season, the teams held two meetings:
- Cloud9 won at PGL Major Antwerp 2022 Europe RMR B with a score of 2:1.
- Cloud9 won in Roobet Cup 2022 with a score of 2:0.
Interestingly, the teams played on five different maps, with the exception of Vertigo and Nuke.
Prediction for the match Cloud9 — Astralis
I believe that Cloud9 will once again analyze the game of the Danes and prepare for all the jokes from blameF and k0nfig. It is clear that Roobet Cup 2022 is not an indicator, but then the guys tightly closed this couple.
In any case, the game of the Russian team is a little more interesting, and if Cloud9 again makes spot preparations, then Astralis will again face problems.
That being said, I don't particularly see strong cards for the Danes, who will be taken away from Nuke. Therefore, here I would recommend betting on the victory of the Cloud9 team.
