SKADE Team Stats and Latest Results

SKADE returned to the CS:GO tour from a winter break with a 2-1 victory over 4glory in the opener at the Snow Sweet Snow 1 Regionals, but they lost the next game to Sangal, which came as a surprise. The Bulgarian team played at the European Development Championship 1 before the break and secured a pair of wins over Galaxy Racer, but lost to HellRaisers and K23, so they failed to reach the final stages there. SKADE won ten of the previous 15 matches.

In the last three months, SKADE was strong on Overpass (75.0% win rate), Inferno (73.3%), and Train (70.0%), while they failed to get a win on Vertigo (played once) and were below average on Nuke (44.4%). SKADE will play with a new lineup as they parted ways with SPELLAN (1.02 rating). SHiPZ (1.21) will likely take his place in this game. The rest of the team is made of dennyslaw (1.14), Duplicate (1.00), Rainwaker (1.14), and Oxygen (1.03).

SKADE vs. 4glory Betting Preview

SKADE won the only H2H duel but much harder than expected. Considering this is a deciding game, I expect to see a lot of fight from the Serbian side, even though they are massive underdogs here. They played well at the Snow Sweet Snow 1 Regionals, and although this will likely be the end of the road for them, I think they can make this game interesting. I am going with Over 2.5 maps.
