Predictiong faze vs envy where envy crushes faze and takes it 2-0
Added Astra
Man I swear it’s like the 5th time in a row now that everyone (at least top comments) are all in against faze ... and they destroy, shred to pieces should I say, the enemy team.
The real question you have to ask yourself before one of Faze’s match to know the issue is whether it’s before or right after 7 AM, and if BABYBAY IS DONE FUCKING ! Simple.
Normally I root against FaZe in most esports but BABYBAY is my favorite player by far. I love the boys over at 100T but BABYBAY is just so entertaining to watch and watching him on Back Chat was hilarious. With that being said I think this is a 2-1 for FaZe. Envy dropped a map to GenG yesterday while FaZe just absolutely demolished XSET and FaZe has all the momentum in the world heading into this matchup.
I'm pretty biased towards faze but pretty sure envy will have a lot harder of a time than faze. Envy will be the ones pressured to make the right calls not faze. Faze will always try to set the tempo and have the other team react. Its up to the other team to either match and overtake the tempo or react correctly to the aggression of faze. If they are forced into the ladder situation it will always be harder to try to react to faze. Making the correct reactions is much harder than it sounds when facing a team with the raw aggression and aim of faze. But if its the former its not easy to take the tempo on a team who specializes in doing so.
The more sophisticated FaZe's scmeag is, the easier it will be to read and anti strat against and if anyone is going to come up with a gameplan to counter FaZe, it would be fns. With that being said, I'm sticking to my prediction above of a 2-1 for FaZe. I think that Envy's win condition has to be food. Babybay already said in the interview that he will target food just like how he targeted Asuna, so if Food can win those opening duels against Babybay, or if Envy can trade instantly when Food loses, I think Envy has a very good chance to win.
I cannot comprehend why they let icebox through but banned ascent. It just doesn't make sense. Not a single other team except T1 let both icebox and haven through against FaZe. Their map phase is so see-through: ban split, pick icebox, pick haven. Envy's worst map is clearly icebox and FaZe's best map is icebox/haven. I just don't get it.
