ENCE form
Let's open our review of the match with ENCE. In this game, the Finnish club will have to play the first number one.
The odds for ENCE to win this match are at 1.7. The team has an advantage, but it's not a serious one.
ENCE are leading thanks to a better season. The international team of the Finnish club had a very fruitful year, which allowed them to rise to the 5th line of the world ranking.
During the season, the team finished top-3 at CCT Central Europe Malta Vibes, top-4 at ESL Pro League Season 17, and also reached top-8 European RMR B - the qualifier for BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023. ENCE also played at the Major, but it was TOP-14, which is hardly a worthy result.
IEM Dallas 2023 turned out to be much more pleasant. ENCE looked quite cheerful throughout the event, which allowed them to defeat MOUZ in the grand finals with a score of 2-0. Just before IEM Cologne 2023, ESL Challenger Katowice was played, where they had to defeat Vp in the grand final 1-2.
- ENCE roster: Snappi, NertZ, Maden, dycha, SunPayus .
ENCE have been playing in a stable roster for almost half a year. SunPayus and NertZ headline the roster with a KDA of 1.12.
Thanks to their victory at IEM Dallas 2023, ENCE started Cologne from the group stage. The first and so far only opponent were the Poles from 9INE, giving the Finns serious problems.
ENCE Mapple
ENCE has two 100 per cent maps. They are Nuke with 9 wins in 9 matches and Anubis with 5 matches and 0 losses.
Still playing Ancient (66% wins in 3 matches). Still playing Mirage (9 matches, 4 wins). Vertigo with 2 wins and 3 losses and Overpass (2 wins in 7 matches).
Inferno are not playing.
Fnatic Form
We continue our review with Fnatic. They are catching up in this match-up.
The odds for an Orange victory are at 2.1. There is a symbolic gap, but no more than that.
Fnatic started the year with a shaky top-12 finish at IEM Masters Katowice 2023 and a top-16 finish at CCT North America Europe Series #4. There was also a 16th place finish at EPL Season 17.
A qualitative breakthrough happened at BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023: European RMR A. There Fnatic finished in the top 2, which opened the way for them to BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023.
The only Major in 2023 went well for Fnatic. The team finished in the top 11, which is a decent result.
The last tournament before IEM Cologne 2023 was IEM Dallas 2023. Fnatic was not allowed to play in America: 9z Team knocked the "orange" out of the tournament at the TOP-16 stage.
- Fnatic roster: KRIMZ, dextre, roej, mezii, afro .
Prior to the Long Round of the tournament, fnatic had a significant reshuffle in their roster. Dexter and afro joined the club during the Big Reshuffle. The Australian played for MOUZ for the last two years, and the Frenchman afro played for LDLC.
In the first match, the renewed Fnatic roster faced Complexity on Inferno. It took a series of dops to win, but still a 19-17 victory was secured.
To advance to the group stage they needed to beat 9INE 2-0. In the first match of the group stage, Fnatic defeated the "mastodons" of Group A, Cloud9 with a score of 2-1.
Fnatic Mapple
The perfect map for Fnatic stunned Ancient. "Orange" played it 4 times and won all matches.
A hundred per cent winrate also on Nuke with Anubis, but fnatic has only 1 match there.
Fnatic has the worst record on Overpass and Vertigo, where they have one win each in 3 matches.
History of head-to-head meetings between Fnatic and ENCE
The last time the teams played each other was in 2022.
Predicted result of the match Fnatic - ENCE
In this series, I expect a brisk CSGO from both sides. It would be logical to pick ENCE as the winner, but based on their first series at IEM Cologne 2023, I don't see how they can comfortably beat Fnatic. ENCE had to step up their efforts on the third map of the encounter to shut down the Poles from 9INE, and Fnatic in turn beat the Polish team dry.
All in all, I'll put my faith in Fnatic.
Bottom line: Fnatic wins.
