NRG 3-1 EG chet anti strat better
EG 3-2 NRG
picks and bans:
Split (EG is slightly better.)
Bind (NRG is better; Potter has got to ban this map)
Heaven
NRG is trying to play Loud's comp here, while EG already lost to them 13-11.
On this map, for example, I think EG is going to win because they have a lot of material to study and the map is good for anti-strats.
Ascent (EG 55%–45% NRG)
Pearl (NRG 60%–40% EG)
Fracture (EG is clearly better; FNS has got to ban this map)
Lotus (NRG 55%–45% EG)

I dont think NRG ban Split, even tho they lost to EG last time NRG beat them on split in groups, Ascent might be the ban from NRG
TrialRunnr [#7]I dont think NRG ban Split, even tho they lost to EG last time NRG beat them on split in groups, Ascent might be the ban from NRG
agree, it is a 50-50 in Split
my bet is NRG ban Fracture and EG ban Bind
SamBR [#6]You think their ascent is scarier than their fracture?
Nah NRG's Fracture is actually decent, Ascent has always been the perma-ban
aylez [#3]nrg had like 5 hours max to strategize versus eg today..

Idt either team will be trying too hard. Chet dont give a fuck about seeding matches.

also NRG Fracture is really good EG got nothing on them they haven't played it much at all while EG has played it like every week
TrialRunnr [#7]I dont think NRG ban Split, even tho they lost to EG last time NRG beat them on split in groups, Ascent might be the ban from NRG
Agreed they ban either fracture or ascent. But that win on split was due to jaw reaallyyy underperforming too if not it wouldve been as close as last time.
SamBR [#8]agree, it is a 50-50 in Split
my bet is NRG ban Fracture and EG ban Bind
but why would they ban fracture if they are good on it and have a shit ton of info on egs fracture
TrialRunnr [#9]Nah NRG's Fracture is actually decent, Ascent has always been the perma-ban
no, they played a few times there

i agree with everything except Split And Fracture, Let me explain. Split last time they played I think NRG kinda threw some rounds and Demon1 went crazy. This guy was just not missing, i'm just remembering all the clutches Demon1 himself had that map and if he didn't i think NRG win.
Fracture idk why u mean EG are clearly better. NRG if i rememebr correctly have only lost Fracture this year to LOUD with multiple overtimes where im pretty sure we agreed as a community NRG should've won that match if it wasn't for that 1v3 they threw on match point. But LOUD win cause LOUD are goats(im an NRG fan but love LOUD aswell). But in this regular season im pretty sure everytime they've played fracture they won.
I think Fracture and Split are 50/50. I don't think any team is favored on those 2.
pugboy [#13]but why would they ban fracture if they are good on it and have a shit ton of info on egs fracture
Meh, just a feeling, I might be wrong, so let's see.
EG looks scary playing in fracture.

true egs fracture is really good but if you just look at nrg/optic in the past they love anti strating a map that a team is extremely comfortable on and they're good at it because chets a monster
Cresp [#12]Agreed they ban either fracture or ascent. But that win on split was due to jaw reaallyyy underperforming too if not it wouldve been as close as last time.
yea but also lets not forget the crazy flick from Demon1 in OT which is why they won that 2v4 or NRG could have closed it out
pugboy [#13]but why would they ban fracture if they are good on it and have a shit ton of info on egs fracture
EG has lost fracture to cloud9 before demon1 and Loud who they had no vods on they should still be the best or 2nd best in americas on it.

I watched all matches till now and at least for me EG has one the best Fractures in the game.
NRG only played once against 100T, so I don't know bro
TrialRunnr [#18]yea but also lets not forget the crazy flick from Demon1 in OT which is why they won that 2v4 or NRG could have closed it out
That 2v4 was on eg map point we dont know if nrg wouldve closed it out. Those arguments dont matter to me cuz that just speaks to the player quality. I cant say yeah nrg shouldnt have won that cuz crashies clutched too much against c9, its just fucking crashies is the goat. Underperformance is one thing but sparks of brilliance is not luck its just players being good playes.
Cresp [#19]EG has lost fracture to cloud9 before demon1 and Loud who they had no vods on they should still be the best or 2nd best in americas on it.
they don't have much info on nrg on fracture either NRG have all the info they need plus fns is very comfortable calling on fracture chet will anti strat the shit out of this map i guarantee
SamBR [#20]I watched all matches till now and at least for me EG has one the best Fractures in the game.

wait LMAO, i swear i thought NRG played FRACTURE more than once, thats funny lmao. Yeh i guess too small a sample size cause even though it was a stomp, it was against 100T, Now idk if that was the the good 100T or the 100T that lost to mibr so LMAO who knows.
