Gambit and Entropiq will compete for the right to make it to the IEM Fall 2021 CIS grand final. As in the case of the first semi-final, nothing can give this match any principle of principle. And if Gambit has already made it to the Legends of PGL Major Stockholm 2021, then Entropiq's situation is a little more complicated. Although it seems to me that, having qualified for the championship, the guys have already completed the task by going to rest.
Gambit Form
The second team of the world rankings as a whole held a controversial group stage, having obtained a naturally devastating victory only in the last round. The rest of the team not only experienced difficulties with outsiders, but also lost to Virtus.pro. And in all other fights, Gambit managed to merge the first halves, including character. Fortunately, in the tiebreak, the team staked out the first place for themselves without any problems, saving themselves from playing with NAVI.
Recent Gambit results:
- Defeat against Virtus.pro with a score of 20:22.
- Victory over forZe with a score of 19:16.
- Beat Unique with a score of 16: 4.
- Victory over INDE IRAE with a score of 4: 0.
- Victory over Virtus.pro with a score of 4: 0.
Best Gambit Cards:
- Overpass - 100% wins.
- Vertigo - 86% wins.
- Dust 2 - 60% wins.
- Mirage - 56% wins.
- Ancient - 50% wins.
I think that the team will again get rid of the Nuke map. However, in this case, it can be scary for Overpass too.
Entropiq Form
The 19th team in the world ranking could fly past the IEM Fall 2021 CIS playoffs to the last. Fortunately, the double tiebreaks allowed the team not only to discard Nemiga, but also to push Spirit aside. Now the guys got to the PGL Major, where they could not get to the last. Nevertheless, against the background of Gambit, the team is slightly inferior in class, and joy can turn the guys' heads.
Recent Entropiq results:
- Defeat to Nemiga with a score of 10:16.
- Defeat from Spirit with a score of 2: 4.
- Victory over Nemiga with a score of 4: 2.
- Victory over Spirit with a score of 10: 7.
- Victory over Nemiga with a score of 7: 5.
Best Entropiq Cards:
- Mirage - 100% wins.
- Overpass - 71% wins.
- Nuke - 57% wins.
- Dust 2 - 53% wins.
Do not forget that the team's instaban is the Inferno map. Although the guys are not very stable on Vertigo.
Gambit meeting statistics - Entropiq

It is interesting to note that at the EPL the teams played Dust 2 and Vertigo.
Forecast for the match Gambit - Entropiq
I do not see the winner of Entropiq, which has already completed its task. Of course, the same can be said about Gambit, but in this case two factors must decide: experience and a selection of cards. If in this tournament Entropiq mainly played on Nuke and Overpass, then Gambit distributed preferences between four maps. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the Gambit team.
