1.89Tip and bets
In the knockout matches of the $1,250,000 tournament, current form often outweighs the difference in rating. paiN not only show the best round balance in the group - their more balanced map pool with high win rates on several maps creates a serious advantage in the BO3 format. FURIA, despite phenomenal performance on Dust2, have obvious problems on other maps (33% Mirage, 25% Inferno), which makes them vulnerable in a long series.
Our prediction is paiN victory with odds of 2.12
