Astralis will play with Team Liquid in the semifinals of the lower grid of the BLAST Premier World Final 2021. Who will pass next?
Team Liquid
Team Liquid has probably the most difficult schedule at the tournament, as it gets a serious opponent in every match. In the first round of the playoffs, she fought with Natus Vincere and was able to achieve a positive result, winning 2-1. But in the second game I had to be content with only one card won, and the opponent in the person of Gambit Esports took two, making it to the final of the upper grid.
Astralis
The Danes started at the BLAST Premier World Final 2021 with a major defeat from Team Vitality (4-16 at Nyuk and 6-16 at Mirage), after which their chances of a positive result at the tournament decreased significantly. However, in the next match, Astralis corrected herself, showing that in fact not everything is so bad - she beat Ninjas in Pyjamas with a score of 2-1. First, the Danes took the opponent's peak - 16:8 Inferno, then lost on their choice - 14:16 on the Mirage, and then won on the decider - 19:16 on the Nuke.
Forecast
Despite the defeat from Gambit Esports, Team Liquid performs great at the current tournament, which cannot be said about Astralis, which lost heavily to Team Vitality, and then did not cope very convincingly with NiP. In this confrontation, I prefer "liquid".
