Semifinals Predictions Of BLAST R6 Copenhagen Major

With only four teams remaining, we are at the peak of BLAST R6 Copenhagen Major. Today we have the two semifinals: w7m Esports vs Soniqs & FaZe Clan vs Team Liquid. With two promising matches in store, let’s take a look at the predictions of BLAST Copenhagen semifinals.

BLAST R6 Copenhagen Semifinals Predictions

FaZe Clan vs Team Liquid

Rosters

FaZe Clan
  • Jaime ‘Cyber’ Ramos
  • Lucas ‘soulz1’ Schinke
  • Victor ‘VITAKING’ Augusto dos Santos
  • Thiago ‘Handyy’ Sá Ferreira
  • Eduardo ‘KDS’ Chiste Fontes
Team Liquid
  • André ‘nesk’ Oliveira
  • Luccas ‘Paluh’ Molina
  • Pablo ‘resetz’ Oliveira
  • Lorenzo ‘Lagonis’ Volpi
  • Gabriel ‘volpz’ Fernandes

Our Prediction

The first semifinal of the night will be between FaZe Clan and Team Liquid. There’s no doubting that both are heavyweights in the world of Rainbow Six Siege. If we’re talking recent form, FaZe Clan have displayed a better performance during the playoffs finishing second to w7m. Meanwhile, Team Liquid finished 6th and barely made it into the finals stage. In terms of head-to-head, FaZe have won their last two meetings against Team Liquid. Can they do it this time around? Well, it will surely be a close one and it’s highly likely that we’ll play out all three maps. Owing to recent form, we predict a 2-1 victory for FaZe Clan.

W7m Esports vs Soniqs

Rosters

W7m Esports
  • Gustavo ‘HerdsZ’ Herdina
  • Diego ‘Kheyze’ Zanello
  • João ‘Jv92’ Vitor
  • Felipe ‘FelipoX’ De Lucia
  • Felipe ‘nade’ Sá Ferreira
Soniqs
  • Pablo ‘Gryxr’ Rebeil
  • Richie ‘Rexen’ Coronado
  • Emilio ‘Geometrics’ Leynez Cuevas
  • Shaun ‘Gunnar’ Pottorff
  • Ben ‘CTZN’ McMillan

Our Prediction

Our second semifinal of Copenhagen will be taking place between w7m and Soniqs. Both the teams have displayed a dominant form throughout the duration of the tournament. W7m were unbeaten during the playoffs winning all three of their matches. Meanwhile, Soniqs lost one match and it was against w7m themselves. With that in mind, it is highly likely that w7m will be repeating the result. Soniqs will have to put on a nasty show if they want to see themselves in the finals. So, we predict that it will be a 2-1 win for w7m esports.

We’ll see at the end of the night which two teams make their way to the finals of the BLAST R6 Copenhagen Major.

The Series

Map 1 (Vertigo)

Vertigo was the first playground of the semifinals of TWR Eastern European Masters between MOUZ and Eternal Fire. Vertigo was Eternal Fire’s first pick but it was MOUZ that started it off on the right foot on defense picking up the pistols. But Eternal Fire showed why it was their pick as they responded right after. They got the plant down multiple times and ended the first half 10-5 in their favor. In the second half, MOUZ responded quite well picking up the first four rounds. But Eternal Fire didn’t take long to pick up the map as it finished 16-12 in their favor. XANTARES was the top fragger of the first map with 26 kills.

Map 2 (Mirage)

It was now MOUZ’s turn to respond with their pick of Mirage. Eternal Fire started off MOUZ’s map pick their way destroying everyone in their path the first four rounds. MOUZ tried to comeback into the half but failed to do so. Eternal Fire was absolutely flawless at picking up kills ending the first half 9-6. Eternal Fire started off the second half smoothly as well and it seemed to be a matter of time till they win the series. They were up 12-6 but the unthinkable happened right after. MOUZ managed to successfully defuse the bomb in round 19 and they just didn’t stop from there. MOUZ picked up nine straight rounds without flinching once to come back and win the map 16-13.

Map 3 (Nuke)

It was MOUZ again that started off Eternal Fire’s map pick the right way. They won the first three rounds on Nuke with ease. Eternal Fire couldn’t manage to get a hold of the first half at any cost. They managed to get plants down but conceded to MOUZ’s defuses. MOUZ led the first half 11-4. Eternal Fire started off the second half well winning the first pistol and forcing MOUZ to go for a save. Including the two pistols, Eternal Fire won four straight rounds hoping to force a comeback. And soon, they did force the scoreline to go even at 13-13. With some back and forth, the series was forced to feature it’s first overtime. In overtime, Eternal Fire won four of the six rounds to pick up the series and a spot at the finals of TWR Eastern European Masters.

Eternal Fire will now be going up against Sinners Esports in the grand final. Both of the teams started in two different groups in this tournament. Ironically, both of these teams finished as the runners up of their respective groups. Only a matter of time now before we can find out who gets a spot at Blast Premier Showdown from the finals!

Group Stage Action of BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2022

We are done and over with all the group stage action of BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2022. The 12 teams of the tournament were divided into three groups this year. It goes without saying that the intensity of BLAST Premier did not disappoint at all thus far.

BLAST Premier: Fall Groups 2022 Group Stage

All of the 12 teams were divided into 3 separate groups this year.

Group A

  • Team Vitality
  • OG
  • Ninjas in Pyjamas
  • Astralis

The tournament kicked off with some dynamic competition coming out of Group A. The way things kicked off, it looked like either Vitality or NIP would be winning the group. But a shocking comeback from Astralis awaited them. Despite moving down to the lower bracket after losing to NIP, Astralis came back strong beating all three teams to directly qualify for the finals of the play-in stage.

Group B

  • Natus Vincere
  • Complexity Gaming
  • G2
  • Team Liquid

Group B also witnessed a comeback of the same level. Complexity got the best of Natus Vincere in the first match of the group but it wasn’t over there. In the lower bracket, NaVi faced G2, barely edging a win against them. They then went on to batter the same lineup of Complexity and then Team Liquid. Thus, NaVi grabbed the second spot of the play-in finals.

Group C

  • FaZe Clan
  • Evil Geniuses
  • Heroic
  • BIG

Group C wasn’t a stroll in the park for anyone either. FaZe Clan started off the group stage the best possible way beating Evil Geniuses and Heroic. But it was the same Heroic that beat them in the grand final of the group stage despite being demoted to the lower bracket.
