Sen will NOT ban split lmaooo
and I guarantee NRG has cooked bind, because with Ethan Yoru, Vic raze, Crashies gecko, Demon1 Brim, Marved Viper, they'll be insane on the map.
Here's some better pics:
SEN bans Icebox (as they have every other game, they're obviously not prepped on it)
NRG bans Split (SEN's best map)
SEN picks Sunset
NRG picks Breeze (new comp probably)
SEN bans Ascent
NRG bans Lotus
Bind remains
This map pool is super favorable for NRG imo. They've looked good at Sunset, while SEN has shown almost everything they have on that map. SEN has looked weak at breeze while it's a great map for NRG (and we haven't seen anything new on it). For bind, NRG almost definitely have a good comp prepped while SEN has shown their bind over and over.
It's also possible that NRG go for a Bind or Ascent pick for map 2, either of which will probably also be favorable maps. There's only one map I'd give SEN a definite advantage on, and that's Split.
In short, SEN is already on the back foot, and this game will be very hard (but not impossible) for them to win.
