NIP and BIG will vie for the right to be named the best team in group B within the BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2021. Despite the recent victory of the German team, I am not sure if this company is able to compete with NIP. And the Swedes are still leaving a good impression, clearly correcting their past mistakes.
NIP form
The tenth team from the world rankings had a great start at BLAST Premier Fall Final 2021, being the first to guarantee a place in the autumn finals. And in terms of play, the Swedish team looked very dignified, if we take out the failure on Ancient. Otherwise, NIP even managed to show character (remember Mirage versus G2), as well as show a variety of ideas (the first match with BIG in full).
Recent NIP results:
- Victory over Gambit with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over mousesports with a score of 2: 1.
- Lost to OG with a score of 1: 2.
- Victory over BIG with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over G2 with a score of 2: 1.
Best NIP Cards:
- Ancient - 67% wins.
- Nuke - 67% wins.
- Overpass - 60% wins.
- Inferno - 57% wins.
- Dust 2 - 50% wins.
At the same time, the Swedish team can play on any map, even if in its current state Vertigo seems to be a contender for instaban.
BIG shape
I never thought that I would see BIG in the grand final of BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2021. Apparently I was right when speaking about the changes after the starting defeat from NIP. However, I am not ready to say that now the German team suddenly began to play an order of magnitude stronger. And the victory over G2 cannot serve as objective proof, since the people are in similar crisis conditions.
Recent BIG results:
- Defeat against mousesports with a score of 1: 2.
- Lost to SKADE with a score of 0: 2.
- Defeat to NIP with a score of 0: 2.
- Victory over MIBR with a score of 2: 0.
- Victory over G2 with a score of 2: 0.
Best BIG cards:
- Overpass - 67% wins.
- Dust 2 - 64% wins.
- Vertigo - 62% wins.
- Nuke - 57% wins.
- Inferno - 50% wins.
It is clear that BIG will not pick Ancient. However, on Inferno, the team will again have to prove their worth.
NIP - BIG meeting statistics
During the current season, the teams have already held five meetings:
- NIP's victory in BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2021 with a score of 2: 0.
- BIG's victory at BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2021 with a score of 2: 0.
- NIP victory in FLASHPOINT 3 with a score of 2: 1.
- NIP's victory in the BLAST Premier Spring Final 2021 with a score of 2: 0.
- NIP's victory in BLAST Premier Fall Groups 2021 with a score of 2: 0.
Dust 2 and Inferno - exactly such a pool was in the last two matches.
Forecast for the match NIP - BIG
You can believe that, by inertia, the German team will go to the server and roll out the salag. However, the Swedes are not done with a finger, and these guys certainly know that BIG has problems, if not with shooting, then with confidence at a distance. And the recent game showed how the mobility of the Swedes led the Germans to a standstill. Therefore, here I propose to bet on the victory of the NIP team.
