Head to Head
Apeks and Grayhound have never met before.
Apeks Form
Apeks made it to Round 2 High Matches with an impressive performance against Team Liquid (16-12) in the opening round of the tournament. Although Apeks winning is hardly a shocking outcome, Apeks played well and proved they can compete against an individually better team.
Given their success against Team Liquid, who are one of the most stacked rosters of the Challengers Stage, it's fair to expect Apeks to do well against Grayhound. Granted, there are always some question marks above best-of-one series, which are known for upsets.
Apeks Squad & Team News
Apeks won't make any roster changes.
- Tim "nawwk" Jonasson
- Joakim "jkaem" Myrbostad
- Martin "STYKO" Styk
- Justinas "jL" Lekavicius
- Damjan "kyxsan" Stoilkovski
Grayhound Form
Grayhound achieved the impossible and defeated FORZE Esports (16-14) in the opening round of the Paris Major. But perhaps it's even more impressive how Grayhound did it.
After trailing 3-12 on Mirage at half time, Grayhound turned on their jets and made a remarkable comeback on CT-Side, snatching the game from FORZE's hands with a 13-2 half to win the map 16-14. Seeing Grayhound come back after trailing nine maps is quite impressive, but while we can praise them, their success mostly had to do with FORZE choking.
Grayhound Squad & Team News
Grayhound have not made any roster changes.
- Simon "Sico" Williams
- Joshua "INS" Potter
- Alistair "aliStair" Johnston
- Jay "Liazz" Tregillgas
- Declan "Vexite" Portelli
Verdict
Apeks and Grayhound both upset their round-one opponents, but we must value Apeks' victory more. Admittedly, it takes a lot for a team to bounce back from a 2-13 halftime and win the map, but as noted, Grayhound's success in the first round mostly had to do with FORZE not being able to close out the game.
In contrast, Apeks defeated Team Liquid because they played better CS:GO and if they can defeat the current no.8 team in the world, Apeks shouldn't struggle to defeat Grayhound with at least four rounds to spare.
