CS2 eşleşmesine ilişkin tahmin Apeks - NiP

Apeks and Ninjas in Pyjamas will meet in the fifth round of the main stage of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023. It's pretty simple here - the winner goes to the play-offs, while the loser buys tickets home.

And here again a similar story emerges where there is nothing to say about the teams. In the sense that in such a short diatribe they managed to leave behind so many contradictions and questions that it's hard to understand how they got here.

However, knowing the specifics of the championship, Ninjas in Pyjamas might not wake up at all and fly past the server. Now, I'd rather be surprised by the confident play of the favourite than the favourite. So here I would lean on the map from the Apeks team.

Apeks form

The nineteenth team in the world rankings began to surprise back at BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage, where they managed to shut down Team Liquid, Grayhound Gaming and paiN Gaming, Ledge with only G2 Esports.

Furthermore, the European squad went on to tear it up in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 main stage, where Long Converged with a win over Into the Breach, but settled down a bit further and lost to Heroic.

Next up, Apeks were able to outplay Bad News Eagles without a chance, but unseen things happened to the team the day before as they only failed to beat GamerLegion.

Apeks latest results:

• A 2-1 win over paiN Gaming.
• Victory over Into the Breach with a score of 16-10.
• Defeat by Heroic 10-16.
• 16-6 win over Bad News Eagles.
• 0-2 defeat by GamerLegion.

Apeks top scorers:

• Anubis - 81% wins.
• Ancient - 70% wins.
• Inferno - 62% wins.
• Overpass - 59% wins.
• Mirage - 50% wins.

Let's not forget that the Apeks team is steadily giving up Nuke maps.

Ninjas in Pyjamas uniforms

The tenth team of the world ranking was unremarkable in the recent IEM Rio 2023, where they managed to get two wins over Imperial Esports and 9INE, however, lost to Natus Vincere and Heroic.

Ninjas in Pyjamas went on to win back-to-back matches at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage where they fell to ENCE but also picked up tough wins over MOUZ, OG and Grayhound Gaming.

As for the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 main stage, here the European team managed to Ledge to fnatic and Natus Vincere, but also found victories over FURIA and ENCE. Moreover, the latter victory is strongly out of logic.

Recent Ninjas in Pyjamas results:

• A 2-0 win over Grayhound Gaming.
• Defeat to fnatic by a score of 11-16.
• A 16-8 win over FURIA.
• Defeat by Natus Vincere 9-16.
• Defeated ENCE 2-0.

Best Ninjas in Pyjamas:

• Mirage - 80% wins.
• Nuke - 60% wins.
• Vertigo - 57% wins.

Prediction for the match Apeks - Ninjas in Pyjamas

I can't comment on the match, the teams are heavily dependent on the mood, which is generally impossible to predict. Moreover, the championship itself is bordering on wild instability in general, everyone except Heroic and Vitality.

As for this matchup, Ninjas in Pyjamas should think Mirage, and Apeks should quite logically kick their beloved Ancient. And yet, there's no point in guessing by coffee grounds, as it's a complete randomness and TIER-2 dominance.

So in this case I would recommend to bet on Forum on maps (+1.5) for Apeks team.
