Прогноз на матч CS2 Copenhagen Flames - SKADE

Copenhagen Flames and SKADE will meet in the Elisa Invitational Winter 2021 semi-finals. I am surprised by the performance of the Bulgarian team a stage earlier, although I am still confident in the limitations of SKADE's ideas. Well, the Danes in this confrontation again look like the favorites, with which I personally agree completely.

Shape of Copenhagen Flames

The 17th team in the world ranking failed at the group stage of IEM Katowice 2022, losing to Virtus.pro and Gambit. The consequence of this was a flight from Poland back to Denmark and an arrival in the playoffs of Elisa Invitational Winter 2021. Here the Danish team outplayed Dignitas extremely confidently, even if they flooded the beginning of the meeting. In general, Copenhagen Flames looks very, very fresh.

Form SKADE

The 29th team in the world ranking again failed in the qualification for the RMR tournament, showing a mediocre game. However, the Bulgarian team decided to throw out their emotions in the quarter-finals of Elisa Invitational Winter 2021, getting a good victory over Eternal Fire. We can say that SKADE was lucky at Dust 2, but the team was definitely stronger than their counterpart. However, in the context of this game, I don’t think so for sure.

Prediction for Copenhagen Flames vs SKADE

I won't be surprised that the Bulgarian team will impose their aggressive game on Inferno. However, I still doubt that SKADE will have enough potential to reach the final. Yes, and the Danes just got together and stopped uploading games, if you do not consider TIER-1. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the Copenhagen Flames team.
