Прогноз на матч: paiN Gaming - ATK | Counter-Strike (CS2)

paiN Gaming and ATK will play in the final round of IEM Road to Rio 2022 American RMR, vying for the right to go to replays for the last slot in the major.

Honestly, the Brazilian team deserves to at least get their chance, having a potentially good squad. In turn, ATK shows too strange a game in terms of stability, and I don’t believe in the team at a distance at all.

Therefore, here I am all for paiN Gaming, since many premises speak in favor of this team. The main intrigue, it seems to me, is tied to the number of cards that ATK will take.

The 23rd team in the world ranking just recently became the winner of the ESL Challenger Melbourne 2022, where, by the way, they did not lose a single match.

However, at the start of IEM Road to Rio 2022 Americas RMR, the Brazilian team had some difficulties, as it got an ambiguous victory over ARCTIC and also lost to Complexity.

And then paiN Gaming continued to perform in a sine wave, either beating Nouns or losing to FURIA. And yet the team can come together at a crucial moment.

Do not forget the fact that the Brazilian team refuses the Mirage card.

The 40th team in the world ranking failed in the qualifiers for the ESL Challenger Rotterdam 2022, and also failed to prove themselves at the recent Ace North American Masters Fall 2022.

As for the start at IEM Road to Rio 2022 Americas RMR, here ATK suffered a crushing defeat from Complexity, but after that they got two victories in a row.

The day before, the team failed to cope with 9z, showing, to be honest, a weak game. And after such a match, I don't believe in ATK at all, and in general, the guys are at a lower level.

• Lost to EG White with a score of 13:16.
• Lost to Complexity with a score of 5:16.
• Victory over ARCTIC with a score of 16:11.

• Inferno - 50% win rate.

Let's not forget that the ATK team does not play on the Nuke map.

Prediction for the match paiN Gaming — ATK

I don't believe in the fight from ATK, just as the day before the team showed its inconsistency against the backdrop of a strong opponent. In turn, I expect the Brazilians to play the first number, which is extremely likely. Therefore, here I would recommend betting on paiN Gaming to win with a score of 2:0.
