EG have had a very respectable and insane run so far. But with 2 map bans, FNC will probably get rid of Fracture and Pearl and that leaves not a single map that you can confidently say EG could win
With all due respect, FNC 3-0
thefaz31 [#6]EG can comfortably take ascent, and we’ve already seen them put up a fight on split. It’s completely possible for them to win if they can pull together a good haven or even learn from their lotus
uhm... Fnatic's ascent is scary ya know
CorpL [#9]uhm... Fnatic's ascent is scary ya know
All of fnatics maps are scary but their ascent definitely isn’t their best, and if you paid attention to the prx game, EG looks really good on ascent
Erafreitas [#11]I think fnatic are very confident on fracture and will play the map and beat EG to break their mental. in my opinion, fnatic will most likely ban ascent instead, since theiy are not as strong
Yes this is also a strong possibility

yea... no shot they won't ban EG's best map

Nah they aren’t going near fracture

i'm not questioning EG's win on ascent vs PRX, i'm just saying don't be so sure about FNC's ascent. Plus there's no tape on Fnatic's ascent in this tournament so far, and the last time they played ascent, they lost narrowly to TL. Boaster and Mini would definitely have cooked up sth since then

It’s definitely the one that EG can get the most comfortable win on, but it’ll of course still be a tough one
NotASinner69 [#8]Fnatic lotus and bind are very good but EG at their best can beat fnatic on Ascent, Split and Haven.
They won’t beat them on those 3 maps as they lost split while derke was playing bad as long as he plays good they won’t win and also haven and ascent they will struggle a lot and probably wont win on a good day because fnatics good day completely suppresses eg’s good day especially considering derke will finally be on his best agent jett don’t forget seek hasn’t played jett all tournament so he will be very hungry on those 2 maps as he will finally be able to play his favourite agent
CorpL [#14]yea... no shot they won't ban EG's best map
You are overestimating eg fnatic don’t care who their opponent is they will fight anyone on any match an example of taht is loud at lock-in they left ascent open and won only the 2nd ever team to do that plus the fracture game was a lot closer than people think as eg got very lucky in the 1st half they defused the spike with less than 0.2 seconds left and after that round they went on to win the rest of the rounds that half because they gained the momentum but even with that the map still ended 13-9 if that 1 round was different and fnatic won it they would of won fracture
Dybala21 [#23]Definitely sensing 3-0 tomorrow
Plus boaster said he wanted to show them dominance so I think fnatic will go into that series fully serious right from the start no messing around in fact I even think they will let fracture through and beat them on it to completely crush eg’s mental for the next map after fracture to make sure they secure the win

The fact is why won’t they ban their perma AND their opponents’ best map, especially when they beat you convincingly I would say on that map. I know that they don’t really care since their map pool is so good but they have the advantage here, why not try and use it. Plus like sure EG did have a 0.2 defuse, but are we really disregarding EVERYTHING else EG did well that map?
