In the second game day at the major in Stockholm, the German BIG team will play against the Australian Renegades team.
BIG
The German team started yesterday at the candidates stage not without difficulty, but in a stubborn struggle on the Nuke map, it managed to beat the representatives of Russia from the Entropiq team. At Nuke, both teams did not play in the best way, everyone made a lot of mistakes, but in the end, the Germans were still able to squeeze their opponent with a score of 16:13. But already in the evening game BIG lost to one of the main sensations of the first day, the Danish team Copenhagen Flames also agreed to play at Nuke, where they eventually won with a score of 16:11. At the same time, the Danes were able to win the first half of the defense game with a score of 13:2, after that the Germans desperately tried to save the game, but in the end they only managed to break through the total more.
Renegades
The Australian team, in turn, started on the major quite the opposite. The Renegades lost their first game on the Nuke map to the Spaniards from Movistar Riders - 13:16. It cannot be said that the Australian team looked much weaker, but still due to more experience, which we were talking about, it was the European team that was able to win this VO1 match. In the second game, which was already in the evening, Renegades fought with the paiN team from Brazil. The teams also decided to play Nuke, which is working for both sides. The Renegades started the match extremely unsuccessfully, at some point the Brazilians led the defense with an overwhelming advantage, but as a result they lost control of the game. The Australians were able to save the end of the first half and finish it with a score of 9:6, and then the Renegades finally turned the game in their favor for the defense side and were able to squeeze a difficult opponent with a score of 16:14.
Forecast
There is a high probability that BIG and Renegades will agree to play Nuke again in this second match, and then a very stubborn fight will be waiting for us with a high degree of probability. But even if there is another card, for sure Renegades will be able to give a more high-status opponent a decent fight, and therefore we will put more than 25.5 rounds on the total.
