Maç Tahmini: MOUZ - Wings Up | CS2 (CS:GO)

Welcome to EGamersWorld.

The big Counter-Strike is back, this time in a rather unusual setting. The internationally popular shooter from Valve is beginning its expansion into the Asian region with the CS Asia Championship 2023 tournament.

The CS Asia Championship 2023 will award $500,000, making it one of the most prestigious championships of the year. Top teams and local clubs will battle it out for that cash reward. Among the list of participants are MOUZ and Wings Up, whose match we will talk about in more detail.

Let's try to figure out who will be stronger in this confrontation and will go through to the next round of the group stage, and already there will play for the play-offs.

Let's go.

MOUZ uniforms

Initiating the match analysis, let's delve into an assessment of MOUZ's current form. Notably, in this particular matchup, they are positioned as favorites with odds to win at around 1.08 on top CSGO betting sites.

MOUZ's main achievement this season is reaching the final of the Intel Extreme Masters Dallas 2023. There they battled ENCE, but were beaten 0-2.

Prior to Long Cologne IEM Cologne MOUZ made a splash at the Elisa Invitational Spring 2023. They failed to jump above the top 4 - they were beaten by Apeks on their way to the Grand Final.

Back in the season, they made it to the top 8 at BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023: European RMR A, and then to the event itself. It didn't end well, as the team finished in the top-24 at Major e.

• MOUZ line-up: frozen, siuhy, torzsi, Jimpphat, xertioN.

IEM Cologne 2023 will be a test for the new line-up of the "mice". After Elisa Spring, siuhy, who previously played for GamerLegion, and Jimpphat, a youth player from MOUZ Nxt, joined the squad.

In the debut match the revamped MOUZ roster played against The MongolZ. An easy outing on paper ended in a nervous Bo1 on the dopes, followed by a 22-19 win for MOUZ on Nuke.

Already in the match to qualify for the group stage MOUZ were much more confident. They beat NiP 2-0 (16-12 Nuke and 16-7 Inferno) without any problems.

The first match of the group stage was not a big challenge for MOUZ either. NaVi lost at Ancient with a score of 16-9 and Overpass with a score of 16-12.

After beating NaVi, MOUZ failed to gain a foothold and lost the next two series. As a result, the "mice" at IEM Cologne 2023 took the top 12.

Before ESL Pro League Season 18, the team played at the local championship Thunderpick World Championship 2023: European Series #1. They managed to win, defeating BIG 2-0 in the grand finals.

In their debut match at ESL Pro League Season 18, MOUZ faced mibr. Being the favourites, MOUZ failed to defeat the Brazilians and unexpectedly ended up in the bottom of Group B.

The group stage was a mixed bag for MOUZ, but still more successful than not. An unexpected defeat in the top set cheered MOUZ up and they effortlessly went over the heads of their opponents, Heroic among them, at the bottom of the group stage table. Having not lost a single game in the lower grid, MOUZ made it here.

In the first round of the ESL Pro League Season 18 play-offs, MOUZ seemed to be off the chain. The Brazilians from FURIA were literally stomped, and the "mice" celebrated an easy 2-0 victory, giving their opponents a total of 9 rounds per game.

In the match before that MOUZ met another grandee of the European scene - FaZe Clan. "Mice" on a spree swept through the match and closed the series with a score of 2-0.

In the match for the exit here MOUZ met G2 Esports. They became the next trophy in the "mice" piggy bank at ESL Pro League S18.

MOUZ went on to defeat ENCE (2-1) and NaVi in the EPL S18 Grand Final with a resounding 3-0 score. Prior to the Thunderpick World Championship 2023, MOUZ played at IEM Sydney 2023, where they again faced FaZe. This time FaZe retaliated for the upset defeat and knocked MOUZ out at the Top 4 stage.

Thunderpick World Championship 2023 MOUZ ended prematurely. They lost in the first round of the play-offs to FaZe, who later became the tournament champions.

MOUZ Mapple

MOUZ's favourite card remains Inferno. The Mice have played it three times in the last 3 months and won all their games there. Nuke is also doing well, with MOUZ winning 3 out of 4 Nuke games played.

Among the good options are Vertigo and Ancient, where MOUZ have 2 wins in 3 games each.

The most undesirable map is Mirage. MOUZ have played it 6 times, but have only won once.

Wings Up

We continue the match analysis with the analysis of Wings Up's form. In this match they will play as a clear outsider with odds to win at around 6.5.

Wings Up is a local team that got to the championship by Asian quota. Prior to that, they have played in numerous local championships. They played with mixed success.

Started the year with three qualifications: BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023: Chinese RMR Qualifier, 5E Arena Asia Cup Spring 2023, and ESL Challenger at DreamHack Melbourne 2023. All of the qualifiers failed, ranking from top-6 to top-16.

Next up was a string of B and C-tier tournaments. They were Baidu Cup Invitational #2023, ESL Challenger League Season 44: Asia-Pacific, Perfect World Arena Premier League Season 4: Challenger Division. It wasn't bad here - Top 2 everywhere.

Then there were TOP-6 ESL Challenger League Season 45: Asia-Pacific, Perfect World Arena Premier League Season 4: Professional Division, XSE Pro League 2023: Online Stage. Again, top-6 everywhere else.

• Wings Up: Ian, gas, Childing, flying, blogg1s, kreaz .

It is not yet fully clear who exactly will take places in the Long Sogpeg roster, but we will find out soon.

Before the CS Asia Championship 2023 Long Roster, Wings Up played at the qualifiers, which they did all year long. They tried to get through to IEM China 2024, ESL Challenger at DreamHack Winter. We failed to qualify anywhere, but we have a chance to show ourselves here.

Wings Up Mapple

The best card of Wings Up remains Ancient. Out of 6 cards played, 4 won. There are also Mirage and Overpass in the pool, where the team has 50% wins for 4 and 2 maps played respectively.

Nuke and Inferno have a minus winrate. On Nuke they won 2 matches and lost 4 maps.

The worst map is Anubis. There they have 1 win in 4 matches.

Vertigo do not play.

Previously the teams have not played each other in official matches.

Predicted result of MOUZ vs Wings Up at CS Asia Championship 2023

I see no chance for Wings Up in this match. MOUZ is MOUZ and that's enough to bet in favour of the "mice".

Bottom line: Win for MOUZ.
