Hard Legion Preview

Hard Legion features a Russian CS:GO lineup and created waves in the past few months with some stellar performances. Hard Legion knocked Natus Vincere out of the ESL One: Road to Rio in April. The team recently underwent a roster change when it parted ways with zoneR, the team’s coach. This change is effectively a change in the team’s approach to the game and its strategies.

Hard Legion’s map pool includes Dust2, Mirage, Train and Overpass as its best maps. The team relies on individual player performances to win matches. So far, it has worked extremely well for the players, but if they want to move to the next level, they need better guidance and a suitable coach.

Hard Legion’s recent matches include wins against Sprout, forZe and HAVU. The team lost to Nemiga in the Hellcase Cup #8 after speed4k and mds put up more than sixty kills each over three maps. Krad is crucial to hard Legion’s performance as the player has a 1.12 rating in recent months. With 0.75 deaths per round, Krad often leaves an impact on the round irrespective of the round’s outcome.

CR4ZY Preview

CR4ZY’s CS:GO roster comprises a Ukrainian CS:GO roster, but the team has not produced confident results in recent weeks. The team is very inconsistent in its performance. While it has some commendable victories over teams like sAw and LDLC, the team has also lost matches to relatively unknown rosters such as Lilmix.

CR4ZY’s players like to play on Nuke and Vertigo. The tactical aspect to these maps gives them a small advantage over their opponents. They can use this advantage to their benefit and often surprise their opponents with timely movements and detailed strategies. With a 1.15 rating, SENSEi is the player to watch out on this team.

Pick: Hard Legion ML (-192 @ Pinnacle)

Hard Legion has the better rank and is often practising against top tier CS:GO teams. The team has caused several upsets in the past few months and I expect Hard Legion to continue to improve on its rankings. I am taking Hard Legion to win this match.
