Faze Clan & Tyloo kick off ESL Group C.

Faze Clan

Faze Clan have looked great this whole year so far. They are still to only lose 2 matches both coming to current number 1 team Natus Vincere which both went to the 3 map distance and Faze losing very marginally.

Faze have been known to make alot of questionable roster changes at that. However this current roster with the addition of Coldzera and Broky was the most uncertain change yet in many peoples eyes with how young and unexperienced Broky was and importing Coldzera from Brazil who was seen as the number 1 player in the world for a few years to join an English speaking team for the first time ever. This could of ended extremely badly however it seems this Faze roster and still improving ever time we see them, and I don't expect that to be any different here in the ESL Pro League.

Tyloo

This will be the second time we see Tyloo at an international level since the loss of former leader Bntet. When competing at IEM Katowice late last month they looked very underwhelming. It's always been known that Bntet was a big player for Tyloo considering he was for alot of the time their highest rated player while also taking on the in game leader role. I don't expect Xeta can fill the shoes of Bntet.

My Bet Reasoning

We already know that Map 2 is going to be the map pick of Faze Clan, that been said I think Faze have a number of options they can take here to punish Tyloo.

The pick I expect to go through is Dust 2, this is historically a bad map for Tyloo and a map Faze have been happy enough to play. The last time these teams faced each other a Dust 2 pick did come in for Faze resulting in a 16-5 win. A key note from this match is that it was with former IGL Bntet and I don't think we'll see the fragging same power from Xeta as what Tyloo had with Bntet.
