FaZe Clan vs G2 Esports: Who’ll win the CS2 BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2024 Group C Upper Final?

Prediction

As discussed earlier, FaZe Clan vs G2 Esports is one of the most heated matchups in the history of Counter-Strike. Both rosters are filled with experienced players having immense firepower and can put up a nail-biting display of tactics and skills.

FaZe Clan had a stellar start to their campaign by defeating the newly formed roster of Cloud9. Despite FaZe looking unstoppable on the CT side, the NA powerhouse gave them a run for their money after the switch. Four members of FaZe showed their prowess throughout the BO3 matchup while karrigan was left in the dark and failed to live up to his true potential in terms of frags. However, there’s no doubt he left quite a mark with his exceptional IGLing skill.

On the other hand, the newly formed roster of G2 Esports showcased an exemplary performance as they clinched a 2-0 victory against Ninjas in Pyjamas. Like most other tournaments, m0NESY and NiKo put on an exemplary performance with huNter- popping as a great support.

Additionally, malbsMd and Snax also provided a great backup despite lacking the overall amount of frags. After seeing huNter-’s stellar performance throughout the BO3 matchup, he could stand out to be an X factor ahead of this Upper final.

Considering the recent performances on big stages, the scales are slightly tipped towards G2 Esports. However, the massively experienced FaZe Clan will surely be the favorite among a fair amount of EU fans. Additionally, FaZe will certainly capitalize on the newly formed roster and give them a run for their money.
