    BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2024: Heroic vs. OG<\/em><\/p>\n

    Both teams won their opening matches.\u00a0Heroic\u00a0<\/strong>winning their match wasn’t a surprise but a regular one. While\u00a0OG\u00a0<\/strong>surprised us with a win over\u00a0Complexity<\/strong>,<\/p>\n

    Heroic\u00a0<\/strong>didn’t have any player missing, and everyone played well and had positive stats across the two maps they played against\u00a0NiP<\/strong>. The players and team are in good shape now, but it is hard to give them much credit since it was a game against the new\u00a0NiP\u00a0<\/strong>roster.<\/p>\n

    On the other side,\u00a0OG\u00a0<\/strong>and their players have shown us that they’re in good shape and ready to beat teams that are better on paper. They will have to miss the\u00a0PGL Major<\/strong>, which helps them show better results here since it’s one of the few tournaments left to play for them.<\/p>\n

    Based on the results, both teams are in good shape now. However, experience and consistency go for\u00a0Heroic<\/strong>, and they should be hungry to get some wins and confidence before the\u00a0PGL Major\u00a0<\/strong>kicks in.\u00a0Heroic\u00a0<\/strong>should win this match and proceed to the next stage.<\/p>\n

    Metizport vs. Monte<\/h2>\n
    \"\" <\/span><\/div>\n

    BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2024: Metizport vs. Monte<\/em><\/p>\n

    Metizport\u00a0<\/strong>is a young team, as we said earlier when they had to play against the Falcons. Fighting against a much more experienced team, the\u00a0Falcons<\/strong>, who just got one of the best players in history\u00a0‘s1mple’\u00a0<\/strong>to their roster, didn’t break a young team, and they ended up winning. Every player is in good form, and their team play also helps them.<\/p>\n

    Monte\u00a0<\/strong>met\u00a0Imperial\u00a0<\/strong>in their first match, and even playing with two stand-ins didn’t stop them. Their players also seem in good shape, but it’s hard to judge from one match only and against such an opponent.<\/p>\n

    Metizport\u00a0<\/strong>is a better choice here since the young, motivated team is in a good mood and motivated to show themselves even more than they already did.\u00a0Monte’s\u00a0<\/strong>advantage would be that they have nothing to lose playing with a stand-in, but it sounds more like a random thing. On top of that, any bookmaker odds are better for\u00a0Metizport<\/strong>, and it is a good choice overall to pick them to win this match.<\/p>\n

    Spirit vs. BIG<\/h2>\n
    \"\" <\/span><\/div>\n

    BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2024: Spirit vs. BIG<\/em><\/p>\n

    Spirit\u00a0<\/strong>continues showing us that they’re in top form, ready to fight for anything possible out there, and\u00a0‘d0nk’\u00a0<\/strong>keeps his way to dominate with his performances.<\/p>\n

    BIG\u00a0<\/strong>won their opening match, but it wasn’t something big. So overall, we couldn’t see any changes from them or some upgrades. That was just a regular win against a level team.<\/p>\n

    Based on that,\u00a0Spirit\u00a0<\/strong>was and still is a much stronger team in every aspect of the game, and\u00a0Spirit\u00a0<\/strong>should win this match.<\/p>\n

    We will return with our predictions for\u00a0BLAST Day 5<\/strong>\u00a0soon; stay tuned!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
