I can't see how Gen G can win this.

IMT 2-0, GenG's sloppy win over TSM doesn't convince me that they can beat IMT, it'll be an interesting match to watch though..

2-1 imt

I genuinely don't know what to think about this series. Before GenG's victory over TSM, I would've explected Immortals to dominate. But now, I'm not too sure.

GenG are so much better with a bit of pace to their strats. They have the mechanical skill to make stunning agressive plays. But, then again, they're up against Immortals, who are one of the smartest, assertive teams in NA.

Their last match-up was interesting, GenG made a good showing on Ascent. Bind was a slaughter fest.

But, with TSM and Cloud9 under their belts. GenG might have the momentum needed to take the victory.

I dunno

ShoT_UP tactical nuke incoming

I think part of the reason Immortals is so successful is their aggressiveness, unpredictability, and set-up for fraggers. Shot up is one of the better aimers in NA with very aggressive habits to boot. A team with enough preparation can quench Immortals, which might be their downfall in this tournament. On the other side, GenG is definitely the underdog in this series, coming off of an intense victory over TSM. They're a much slower-paced team than immortals. This match will come down to who will control the pace of the game and cool-headedness from GenG. It's not going to be a close series either way imo. 2-0 IMT

Another note, it seems in their previous encounters, GenG has struggled on the defense side of the maps, even on (slightly) CT sided maps like Bind or Ascent. They did a decent job against TSM, but TSM is nowhere near as explosive as Immortals. We'll see if they can adapt.

IMT 2-0 but the maps should be pretty close
