paiN and O PLANO will meet in the group stage cs_summit 8. Both Brazilian teams won the opening matches of the championship. But if paiN with great difficulty passed Evil Geniuses, then O PLANO gave the first reason for discussion, shutting down compatriots from FURIA.
PaiN form
The 34th team in the world ranking visited Europe, where they could not break the wood. As a result, the Brazilian team returned to North America, where they already won almost all tournaments. And this is logical, given the level of competition. Here began cs_summit 8, where there are a little more big names. However, for paiN, this did not become a problem, which, with difficulty, still beat Evil Geniuses.
Recent results paiN:
- Defeat against Heroic with a score of 6:16.
- Lost to FURIA with a score of 0: 2.
- Victory over RBG with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Bad News Bears with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Evil Geniuses with a score of 2: 1.
Best paiN cards:
- Dust 2 - 87% wins.
- Inferno - 71% wins.
- Nuke - 67% wins.
- Mirage - 60% wins.
- Vertigo - 57% wins.
- Train - 57% wins.
In this match, we are unlikely to see Overpass, on which the Brazilians practically do not play (just once in three months). Another point is that the statistics look decent against the background of the opponent.
Form O PLANO
The 50th world ranked team went through fire, water and copper pipes, but still qualified for cs_summit 8. Personally, I did not think that the Brazilians would show such a confident game at the start of the championship. However, O PLANO not only dispelled all doubts, but also humiliated FURIA. It is clear that much in the match depended on motivation. But the fact itself will still remain a fact - such a game deserves praise.
Recent O PLANO results:
- Victory over Triumph with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over Triumph with a score of 2: 1.
- Lose from Extra Salt with a score of 0: 2.
- Victory over Team One with a score of 2: 1.
- Victory over FURIA with a score of 2: 0.
Best O PLANO cards:
Another point is that the team can play Train, Inferno, Vertigo and Mirage - standard Brazilian history.

Forecast for the match paiN - O PLANO
One match is clearly not enough to record O PLANO as a favorite. At the same time, even in qualifying, the team lost to Extra Salt, showing that it is still too early to reach the top level of the region.
As far as paiN is concerned, the team has no problems with self-confidence or concentration. The team not only won almost all the championships in the region, but also makes almost no mistakes.
Let's come to a conclusion. O PLANO are handsome. But it seems to me that the guys were rather sharpening their teeth on FURIA. And, again, it is too early to draw conclusions. Therefore, here, to play it safe, I propose to put on Forum (1.5) for paiN. Personally, I have no doubt that the team will take the conditional Inferno or Nuke, and then you look and win the match itself.
