Command Analysis

BIG

BIG continue their performance in this tournament, but they may end it in the upcoming match. Note that the team won the first match with FlyQuest (2:1), but in the next match with SAW they suffered a defeat with a score of 1:2.
In the game with the Portuguese, the Germans prevailed on the starting map, but on the decisive Inferno they were unable to finish off the opponent on the defense side and stopped at only 11 rounds. By the way, the team currently does not have more than 50% win rate on any of the maps.

Team Falcons

Falcons arrived at this tournament not in the best shape, but so far they have shown themselves well. Thus, the Danes imposed a tough fight on Eternal Fire and lost with a score of 1:2, and in another match against Alternate Attax they celebrated success - 2:0.
As a rule, the "falcons" start from the weak cards of their opponent, so they try to take exactly such maps with their pick. For example, in a game with ATT, they took Mirage, on which they themselves have a 60% win rate, and their opponent - only 14%.

In our opinion, Falcons look more preferable against BIG. The Danes play a more team-like CS and act more confidently on the map. BIG, on the other hand, have been inferior in all previous encounters with opponents above their level. Plus, on many maps, the Falcons have a higher win rate than the Germans.
