FaZe Clan and Into the Breach will play in the bottom basket of the second round of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023, where they will try to determine the outsider and actually the first eliminated participant.
I don't think there is much point in talking about Into the Breach at length, as the team has already made a breakthrough by getting here. What's more, the Brits don't stand out in terms of their play, so the favourites are extremely lucky.
In turn, karrigan and company have to recover from their defeat at the hands of Heroic, and there are plenty of options here. So here I would lean on FaZe Clan for the logical victory.
FaZe Clan's form
The fifth team of the world ranking didn't show anything during the group stage of IEM Rio 2023 where everything started with a confident victory over 9z, but right after that the guys Ledge and FURIA and Vitality were left without play-offs.
However, the European team performed quite well at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage, where they defeated ENCE with victories over Monte, paiN Gaming and FORZE.
However, at the Long Conpeg of the main stage of the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023, the team didn't get much going, leading to FaZe Clan's humiliating defeat by Heroic at Inferno.
FaZe Clan's latest results:
- Victory over Monte with a score of 16-14.
- Victory over paiN Gaming with a score of 16-12.
- 1-3 loss to ENCE.
- 2-0 win over FORZE.
- Defeat by Heroic 7-16.
FaZe Clan's best records:
- Overpass - 78% wins.
- Ancient - 75% wins.
- Nuke - 56% wins.
- Mirage - 50% wins.
- Inferno - 50% wins.
In turn, the European team has long given up on Vertigo.
Into the Breach form
The 27th team of the world ranking was a revelation of the recent BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Europe RMR A, where after the defeat against Natus Vincere managed to get three wins and slipped into the "legends".
Next Into the Breach managed to go to Brazy Party 2023 where they earned two group victories over paiN Gaming and 00NATION but came up with nothing against 9INE in the quarterfinals.
And at the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023, the British team showed nothing in their game against Apeks and deservedly dropped to the bottom basket in the hope of keeping many "pikemen".
Into the Breach's latest results:
- A 2-1 win over B8 Esports.
- A 2-1 win over paiN Gaming.
- Beating 00NATION 2-0.
- 1-2 defeat at the hands of 9INE.
- 10-16 defeat at the hands of Apeks.
Into the Breach's best scores:
- Vertigo - 56% wins.
- Inferno - 55% wins.
- Anubis - 55% wins.
- Ancient - 50% wins.
It should not be forgotten that the British team have long given up on maps Nuke.
FaZe Clan - Into the Breach encounter statistics
The teams have not met before.
FaZe Clan - Into the Breach.
A passing encounter in which there should not be any The International riga. The British team didn't get there at all as it's high time they played CCT.
In turn, FaZe Clan failed miserably in the Legends, but a team of this calibre can quickly recover. All the more so, the seeding gave a great chance to get back into the 1-1 basket, as Into the Breach are no match for them.
Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the FaZe Clan team to win.
