CS2 eşleşmesine ilişkin tahmin VERTEX - Rare Atom

VERTEX and Rare Atom will meet in the group stage of ESL Challenger Melbourne 2023, where they will try not to drop out. And the winner will try their luck next, although the chances are slim.

I can't say anything about the Australian team because they are the weakest in this championship. As for Rare Atom, they clearly underperformed against the Spaniards, but objectively they did not deserve the last place in the group.

So here I would take a closer look at the Rare Atom squad, which has recently taken down VERTEX, albeit in BO1 at the RMR tournament.

VERTEX's form

The world ranked 79th team recently failed in qualifying for IEM Dallas 2023 before finishing last in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Asia RMR, losing to Rare Atom among others.

Back at home, the Australian squad went on to play in the ESL Australia & NZ Championship Season 16, where they didn't lose any chance of winning the tournament, but Grayhound Gaming are also competing there.

Speaking of Long Corner in the group stage of ESL Challenger Melbourne 2023, VERTEX failed to clinch a game against Bad News Eagles, which makes sense, generally speaking.

VERTEX's latest results:

• A 1-2 defeat to Twisted Minds.
• A 0-2 loss to Grayhound Gaming.
• A 2-0 win over Encore.
• 1-2 loss to Grayhound Gaming.
• Defeat to Bad News Eagles 10-16.

VERTEX's best wins:

• Overpass - 88% wins.
• Nuke - 67% wins.
• Vertigo - 64% wins.
• Mirage - 60% wins.
• Inferno - 60% wins.

It should be noted that the Australian squad does not play on the Ancient map.

Rare Atom form

The 31st ranked team in the world visited the BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2023 Europe, where they even managed to take one card from BIG, but still lost.

Next, Rare Atom failed at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Asia RMR as they suffered two losses to TheMongolz and were again left without a major.

Here's how the Chinese squad failed to cope with Movistar Riders at the Long Conpeg group stage of ESL Challenger Melbourne 2023, although it was the guys' own fault for leaving Anubis behind.

Rare Atom's latest results:

• Defeat to TheMongolz by a score of 11-16.
• A 2-0 win over TYLOO.
• A 2-0 win over Twisted Minds.
• 0-2 defeat at the hands of TheMongolz.
• 16-19 defeat by Movistar Riders.

Rare Atom's best scores:

• Ancient - 100% wins.
• Inferno - 89% wins.
• Mirage - 60% wins.
• Nuke - 56% wins.
• Overpass - 50% wins.

In turn, the Chinese team is more likely to ban Anubis.

VERTEX - Rare Atom encounter statistics

In the current season the teams have played one meeting - on BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Asia RMR the victory went to Rare Atom (16:6).

VERTEX vs Rare Atom preview

It seems to me that the game at the RMR tournament was quite revealing as the Chinese are much more experienced and stable as a team. It's clear that VERTEX plays in front of their own stands, but even that fact doesn't help much. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on a 2-0 win for Rare Atom.
