Furia vs G2 Esports match analysis

Furia is in a strange position currently. Although the team dominated matches against most LTA South teams in the recent split, it struggles in international tournaments. A good example of this is what happened in the recent MSI, where the team struggled to win a single match. The last game, in particular, saw the entire team practically throw away victory, whether it was Tutsz going 1/5/1, or Ayu playing Ziggs and barely finding a single kill.

This isn’t to say Furia is a bad team. Despite not having many achievements under its belt, Furia’s Tatu and Ayu are both usually standout players. JoJo’s support play is hit or miss, but Guigo is reliable enough to win his lanes without feeding the enemy. While the team likely doesn’t have much of a chance against top-ranked League of Legends teams like Gen.G and T1, it should be a fair match for a team like G2 Esports.

Speaking of G2, the team was knocked out of the recent MSI bracket stage without winning a single match. While its performance in the play-in stage was decent enough to ensure it qualified for the next stage, the team’s overall play still left much to be desired, and its wins were seemingly had because the enemy teams were just performing relatively worse. It wouldn’t be farfetched to say that Caps and SkewMond’s mid and jungle synergy is why the team gets as far as it does, and even that has been in question of late.

Hans Sama is an excellent ADC with high carry potential. Unfortunately, he’s usually held back by his support Labrov, who is unable to properly initiate fights. BrokenBlade is also an infamously unreliable player who tends to take unnecessary fights. His team usually pays the price for his poor decision-making, since the enemy’s top laner’s initial gold advantage snowballs into an issue for everyone in G2.

Furia vs G2 Esports betting picks and predictions

Furia gained valuable international experience at MSI, where it first seemed significantly outmatched. Furia gave G2 Esports a run for its money there. The team was primarily held back by the fearless draft system and difficulty finding good picks late in a series. Luckily for the team, this match doesn’t have that issue considering it’s a best-of-one battle. With Furia’s strong initial playing style and G2’s habit of trying to take the match to the end game, Furia has a good chance of getting a big advantage against G2 at the start and then snowballing it into an easier victory.

Best picks

• Furia gets first blood @ 1.98: G2 is fairly passive at the start of games, especially compared to Furia’s aggressiveness. This could give Furia a quicker initial pick.
• Map duration under 31.5 minutes @ 2.01: All of Furia’s recent victories have been decided before the 31.5 minutes mark.
