Maç Tahmini: Aurora - Monte | CS2 (CS:GO)

Welcome to EGamersWorld.

We continue to look out for some good Counter-Strike 2023 action with Roobet Cup 2023. The play-offs stage continues at the $250,000 local tournament with the semi-finals matches getting ready for Long Sogpeg.

Aurora and Monte will face off in the first clash to advance to the Roobet Cup 2023 finals. As before, the format of the meeting is Bo3.

In our quest to determine the stronger team and predict the first to secure a spot in the grand final, it's crucial to assess each team's strengths and strategies. Currently, the odds favor one team slightly, with a chance to be the frontrunner on CS2 betting sites.

Let's go.

Monte's uniform

Monte became famous thanks to their performance at the BLAST.tv Paris Major. At the Paris Major, unexpectedly for many, Monte made it to the top 8, but in the first match of the play-offs Ledge and GamerLegion.

Before the Long Cologne IEM Cologne 2023 they had a series of unsuccessful tournaments. They finished top-16 at the next CCT, this time North Europe Series #5, and top-8 at the Elisa Invitational Spring 2023.

• Monte lineup: sdy, br0, Woro2k, DemQQ, kRaSnaL .

After a great run at BLAST.tv Major 2023, Monte left the headliner of that roster - BOROS, and was replaced by Astralis Talent member - Danish br0.

Monte rolled out the roster at Play-In IEM Cologne 2023, where they defeated Brazilian teams twice: first Imperial 16-9 and then FURIA 2-1 in the series. Monte beat GamerLegion in the group stage, but were unable to face more serious opponents like Heroic. IEM Cologne 2023 ended with a match against Cloud9. Monte tried, but Ledgeilie more titled club with a score of 0-2.

Before ESL Pro League Season 18 played a number of local championships. Among them were CCT Series tournaments, where Monte finished in the top 4, and top 2 at CCT North Europe Series #7, and there was also Pinnacle Cup V, where the Ukrainian club again finished in the top 4.

In the debut match at ESL Pro League Season 18 they met with the Germans from BIG. As expected, the match was equal, especially on the first two maps, but the decisive one was very lopsided: 16-5 in favour of BIG and Monte fell to the lower grid.

In the first round of the lower grid Monte played with the nominally weakest participants of Basket B - Australians from Rooster. It looked like they were going to close with a 2-0 score, but it turned out that there was no need to be happy before the time, and Monte Ledge were on the first card, but then cameback, thus turning the series in their favour.

In the previous match Monte played against MIBR. As in all other matches on ESL Pro League, the game was tense and hard, but in the end the Brazilians triumphed.

Next, Monte managed to get through the last chance net. First they outplayed Heroic with a score of 1-2, and then took revenge on MIBR.

After a real success in the group, Monte made it to the first round of play-offs. There they showed a very serious level of play, defeating Fnatic, Complexity and then Vitality. They were beaten by NaVi, winning the semi-finals 2-0.

Before playing at Roobet Cup 2023, Monte played at IEM Sydney 2023, where they showed a pretty good, but not perfect, game. Monte finished the Sydney tournament at the top-8 stage.

Monte played their debut match at Roobet Cup 2023 against OG. They won 2-0, running over their opponents on class.

Monte qualified for the Roobet Cup 2023 play-offs after a solid win over NiP. The match, by the way, was very intense, although it ended 2-0, the two maps were a struggle: 13-11 Overpass, 16-14 Mirage.

In the quarter-finals Monte faced Movistar Riders. The Ukrainian club defeated their Spanish counterparts 2-0.

Mapple Monte

The best map of Monte is Ancient. There Monte has 7 wins in 9 matches. However, Mirage can also be called a signature choice for the Ukrainian club: it has been played 13 times and won 10 of them.

Things are not bad on Anubis, where Monte has 8 wins and 4 losses.

The worst is Vertigo. There Monte have a statistic of 2-4.

Aurora form

We continue the match analysis with the analysis of Aurora's form. In this match they play in the status of an outsider.

The 39th team of the world ranking cannot boast of a high performance for the year. Aurora played everywhere they could, but everywhere they were at best "in the middle".

Some of the standout performances are the ubiquitous CCT series tournaments, where Aurora did really well. For example, they won CCT South Europe Series #2 and CCT South Europe Series #3. If we talk about more prestigious championships, then everything was much worse there.

Aurora participated in BLAST.tv Paris Major 202: European RMR, and twice. And both times they failed the qualifying stage for the only Major, being ranked first TOP-11 and then TOP-6. They also failed to qualify for Gamers8 and IEM Sydney 2023.

• Aurora line-up: Lack1, Norwi, KENSI, lattykk, SELLTER .

Prior to the Long Convergence Roobet Cup 2023, the team made an appearance at the ESL Challenger at DreamHack Winter 2023: European Qualifier. And again the top 4.

Where they were lucky was at Skyesports Championship 2023: European Qualifier. We defeated TSM in the final, thus getting a slot to the main tournament.

Roobet Cup 2023 is going well for Aurora so far. The team made it through the group stage with confidence, leaving Heroic and Eternal Fire behind.

The ongoing Roobet Cup 2023 continues to be the centrepiece of the 2023 tournament for the club. In the first round of play-offs, Aurora stepped over OG very confidently, outscoring them 2-0.

Aurora Mapple

Some of Aurora's best maps include Anubis and Overpass. The former has 6 maps and 100% wins, while the latter has 5 maps and 100% wins.

Next is Inferno with 13 matches and 10 wins. Nuke (7-4) and Ancient (3-3) are playing.

Worst of all is Vertigo. There are 2 defeats there.

History of head-to-head meetings Aurora - Monte

Monte and Aurora played each other twice during the year. And both times Aurora won.

Predicted result of Aurora vs Monte at Roobet Cup 2023

Historically, Aurora have been something of a kryptonite for Monte. The "turquoise" have the advantage in the history of head-to-head meetings, but those victories that Aurora got were a long time ago, and now the Ukrainian club has reached a new level of play and it should be enough to get to the final.

The result: victory Monte.
