On Group C
PV = VG; the Chinese team will definitely take
the map*RKX < MOUZ; based on Day 1, that’s how it should go, but MOUZ might pull off an upset against Spirit >> Nemesis
On Group D
VP = 1W, I believed in VP—I lost, but based on yesterday’s performance,
I’m betting on this map*LGD = OG, as long as the Peruvians aren’t at their peak, we can pull
off this map Yandex >> IC, they should win comfortably <...>
