Now, it&#8217;\u0099s questionable if they will take some rest and not play to their fullest or if they will give it all and won&#8217;\u0099t even stop. The last time these two teams met was at <strong>IEM Katowice 2024<\/strong>, and<strong>Falcons<\/strong>won with a <strong>2-0 score<\/strong>, but even with that, <strong>Natus Vincere <\/strong>are clear favorites to win this match if they play to their full. <strong>Falcons <\/strong>won only one match for the past nine matches they played and they seem to be out of shape and having problems with finding their game.<\/p>\n<h3>G2 vs. FaZe<\/h3>\n<div class=\"_44tKOV3EvA2Ivv21VkJmnQ==\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blix.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/afebd9004829d83c.png\"> <span><\/span><\/div>\n<p class=\"lNHCeuVfx3n+4j-MEOe3bg==\"><em>G2 vs. FaZe &#8211; BLAST Premier Fall Final 2024<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Both teams have something to prove here not even for others but for themselves. Both teams are hungry for titles and should fight for another tournament here. <strong>G2 <\/strong>did good at <strong>ESL Pro League Season 20<\/strong> but felt against <strong>Natus Vincere <\/strong>in the <strong>semi-final<\/strong>. <strong>FaZe <\/strong>were looking shaky for a long time and at<strong>ESL<\/strong>they lost at the <strong>Playoffs round 1 <\/strong>against <strong>Complexity <\/strong>and they weren&#8217;\u0099t happy with the results.<\/p>\n<h3>Vitality vs. Astralis<\/h3>\n<div class=\"_44tKOV3EvA2Ivv21VkJmnQ==\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blix.gg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/259f90d4e494c0b5.png\"> <span><\/span><\/div>\n<p class=\"lNHCeuVfx3n+4j-MEOe3bg==\"><em>Vitality vs. Astralis &#8211; BLAST Premier Fall Final 2024<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Before <strong>Vitality <\/strong>lost the<strong> quarter-final<\/strong> match at <strong>ESL Pro League <\/strong>against <strong>Eternal Fire<\/strong> they were number 1 team in the world and now<strong>Natus Vincere<\/strong>took their spot and <strong>Vitality <\/strong>will have to fight and give their all here to try and take it back.
