The Ninjas in Pyjamas and Fnatic will face each other in the cs_summit 6 Online: Europe’s quarterfinals. The cs_summit 6 is a Regional Major Ranking event that includes sixteen of the best European CS:GO team. The event has a $125,000 prize pool, but more importantly, it awards the top-placed teams with RMR points. Valve will use these RMR points to decide on the final list of invitations for the ESL One Rio Major in November.
The Ninjas in Pyjamas has been one of the standout teams in Europe in the past few months. The Swedish roster has a young lineup and has constantly been improving under THREAT’s coaching. The 13th ranked NiP is comfortable on all maps. The players are extremely strong and innovative on Vertigo, where they have a 70% win-rate. Besides Vertigo, NiP is strong on Mirage, Overpass and Train.
The sixth-ranked Fnatic has not had a good time in the past couple of months. The team was the highest-ranked team a few weeks ago, but a string of inconsistent results and reliance on the veteran players means that Fnatic has now slipped several places. However, Fnatic has been on a winning streak recently, including wins over G2 and Mousesports.
Pick: Ninjas in Pyjamas ML (-115 @ Bovada)
NiP and Fnatic have traded victories and most of their matches go the distance of over 2.5 maps. Fnatic has improved its performance tremendously recently, but NiP has been dominant. NiP topped its group stage without losing a single match. I am going with the Ninjas in Pyjamas to win this match.
