CS 2
On Thursday, six matches will be played. Two of them will be for the playoff spots. So far, there have been no surprising wins from underdogs, as in the other two groups; maybe this day can change that. Will the best team in the world, Natus Vincere, take their spot in the Playoff with no losses, or will BIG surprise them? We will see.

- ENCE vs. Monte, GamerLegion vs. FORZE at 18:30 CET
Matches Overview
FlyQuest vs. BOSS
FlyQuest vs. BOSS - ESL Pro League 19
Two underdog teams against each other. It is hard to judge what shape both teams are in now since they played against much more experienced teams, and it was hard for any of these two to show what they were capable of. Now, it's a chance for one of these teams to get their first win at this tournament and have an opportunity to keep their way in ESL Pro League 19.
Natus Vincere vs. BIG
Natus Vincere vs. BIG - ESL Pro League 19
The best team in the world, Natus Vincere, is facing BIG. BIG shows they are in good shape now, but Natus Vincere is another level team. Considering that this match is for a spot at the playoff stage, Natus Vincere doesn't have that chance, so it will be hard for BIG to surprise such an experienced opponent.
PERA vs. Ninjas in Pyjamas
PERA vs. Ninjas in Pyjamas - ESL Pro League 19
Underdog European mix PERA against NiP, who have yet to prove what their new roster is capable of. Both teams had strong opponents in their first matches, and now it's each team's chance to show who is the better team at this moment and to keep themselves in ESL Pro League 19.
Complexity vs. HEROIC
Complexity vs. HEROIC - ESL Pro League 19
These two teams met before at the PGL Major, and Complexity won that match in a rollercoaster with a 19-17 score. Now, they have a chance to take their revenge, and they seem to be in pretty good shape to do so. Since this match is for the playoff spot, both teams will give their all in this game, so it should be interesting to watch.
ENCE vs. Monte
ENCE vs. Monte - ESL Pro League 19
Both teams are in shaky form now. ENCE isn't a consistent team yet, and Monte is still a new mix of players. They must get used to each other before showing their actual level. This match result will probably depend on which team will be on their good day.
GamerLegion vs. FORZE
GamerLegion vs. FORZE - ESL Pro League 19
FORZE completely demolished FURIA with a 13-0 score on a second map and closed the series with a 2-0 score, which shows that FORZE is on its way, looking for consistency. GamerLegion got demolished by MOUZ, which isn't a bad sign since MOUZ is one of the best teams at this moment, but still, it is to judge how strong GamerLegion is right now. This match might show their real strength, but the same goes for FORZE. So both teams have something to show here, and this match should be interesting to watch.
We will return tomorrow with an overview of the other day's matches, so stay tuned. Don't miss the Thursday matches—they will be fire!
