Analytics Summary
Astralis in a best form they have been in years. Magisk has been a very good addition to the team. Liquid are a bit of a mix bag. On paper they have pretty good individuals, but coming to this match they are underdogs. AWP battle between device and ultimate goes 100-0 to the Astralis. The Danish get good enough odds, for us to get them as our main betting pick.
