Hard Legion and Sprout will face each other in the upper bracket semifinals of the Hellcase Cup #8 tournament. The tournament includes nineteen teams competing for a $10,000 prize pool. The first-placed team gets $4,000 and 40% of the money from crowdfunding.

The 29th ranked Hard Legion recently underwent a roster change, that puts its preparation for this match in doubt. The team parted ways with its long-time coach, which should be a significant change to their playstyle in this match. Hard Legion been a revelation in recent months with the team making strides with amazing performances. Train and Overpass are the most successful maps for the team as they can then use their advantage on the CT side to ensure a strong performance.

Sprout is ranked 38th and has been on a winning streak ni recent matches. The team is on a four-match winning-streak defeating teams such as Nemiga, Nordavind, FATE and PACT. The two teams faced each other just once, but it was a match in September 2019 and Sprout won the series. Sprout has a deep map pool and will have the advantage in the map veto.

Pick: Sprout ML (-166 @ Pinnacle)

I am taking Sprout to win this match. The team’s performance has been impressive with its players in excellent form. Hard Legion has lost its recent matches to lower-ranked teams and will not win this match.
