- TheMongolZ vs. VP, Natus Vincere vs. FaZe starting at 18:30 CET
Playoff Round 2 Matches Overview
3DMAX vs. G2
3DMAX vs. G2 - Playoffs Round 2 - ESL Pro League 19
3DMAX did a great job in the Group Stage, but they have to face one of the best teams, G2, which will be a hard match. The only good side of this matchup is that G2 is an inconsistent team, and sometimes, they can’t find their game. Also, 3DMAX has to bring us some surprises to have a chance against such a team.
Liquid vs. FlyQuest
Liquid vs. FlyQuest - Playoffs Round 2 - ESL Pro League 19
Liquid is showing its progress game by game, and maybe it is finally a time when they show their real level, and this game would be a good start for them. FlyQuest is an underdog team at this tournament, and it is going to be hard for them against an experienced team like Liquid. FlyQuest surprised us a few times at ESL Pro League 19 already, and who knows, maybe they can keep doing it with Liquid as well.
TheMongolZ vs. VP
TheMongolZ vs. VP - Playoffs Round 2 - ESL Pro League 19
VP seems to be improving since their recent addition of ‘electroNic’. TheMongolZ, on the other hand, was an underdog in every single tournament before, but they didn’t stop their grind, and it seemed to pay off as well. They have already won against much more experienced team G2 at the Group Stage of ESL Pro League 19, and now they’re here with their deserved playoff stage spot.
Natus Vincere vs. FaZe
Natus Vincere vs. FaZe - Playoffs Round 2 - ESL Pro League 19
This is a recent PGL Major Copenhagen 2024 rematch, where Natus Vincere won in the Grand Final with a 2-1 score. FaZe should have extra motivation to take their revenge here. This is going to be the match of the day to watch, so don’t miss it. It is going to be the two best teams in the world showing the best level of Counter-Strike 2!
