ENCE vs. FaZe Preview & Prediction - Free CS:GO Betting Picks 6/30

ENCE and FaZe Clan face each other in the 9-12th place decider match for the cs_summit 6. The BeyondTheSummit event is a Regional Major Ranking event featuring the best European CS:GO teams in competition for a $125,000 prize pool. The top teams will earn enough RMR points to secure an invitation to the ESL One Rio Major in November. Valve had to postpone the Major to November and double its prize pool due to uncertainties arising out of the coronavirus pandemic.

ENCE Preview

ENCE has a Finnish squad has had been on a losing streak in its last few matches. The players could not live up to expectations and often come up short in firepower. Ranked 16th, ENCE has the makings of a team to break into the top ten, but inconsistent results and a relatively stale playstyle has resulted in a stagnating team.

With a 1.15 rating, Allu is still the best player on the team despite being the veteran on the roster. Allu is the AWPer on ENCE and his performance stems from calculated aggression and seamless synergy with his teammates. The former Ninjas in Pyjamas player does 75.4 average damage per round, but most of his kills are impact kills. These kills often dictate the pace of the round and allow ENCE more space on the map (on the CT side). Train, Nuke, Mirage and Dust2 are the best map for ENCE.

FaZe Preview

As the third-best team in the world, FaZe Clan is one of the flashiest and yet inconsistent teams in CS:GO. The team suffered recently due to Olofmeister’s decision to step down from the active roster. The players have turned this problem into an opportunity. NiKo added Bymas to the roster and the player has fulfilled his role to perfection.

Bymas’ presence on the team allows NiKo to take on an aggressive heavy-hitter role for FaZe Clan. Much before the likes of Zyw0o and s1mple dominated the CS:GO scene, NiKo was the original superstar. As FaZe looks to reinvent their performance with more victories and flashy plays, NiKo is crucial to its chances.

FaZe has a deep map pool and a better win-rate on most of the maps compared to ENCE. The team’s roster change has not dampened the coordination and synergy within the roster.

Pick: FaZe Clan Spread -1.5 Maps (+140 @ Bovada)

I am going with FaZe Clan to win this match with ease. The team has better synergy, map pool and is ranked higher than the Finnish squad. This is going to be a long battle for ENCE, and I don't believe they will even take a map.
