Heroic vs FaZe Clan Predictions


Heroic and FaZe Clan will cross swords on Thursday, May 18, in the first round of BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 quarterfinals. The two Counter-Strike: Global Offensive squads already met in the first round of Legends Stage when Heroic won 16-7.

Esports betting sites have Heroic priced as 1.61 favourites to defeat FaZe Clan, who enter the BLAST.tv Paris Major quarterfinals as 2.20 underdogs. The offered price isn’t that surprising, considering FaZe not only already lost against Heroic in the Legends Stage but also barely qualified for the playoffs.

  • Heroic are priced as the current second-favourites to win the Major
  • FaZe Clan had a rough run through the Legends Stage but are still a formidable team
  • Clash of two titans

Head to Head


Heroic and FaZe last met in the first round of BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Legends Stage, when Heroic won 16-7. The Danes were clearly the better team on the day; however, it was a Bo1 fixture.

Heroic Form


Heroic are priced as favourites to defeat FaZe Clan, and rightly so. They’ve been phenomenal over the last four months and truly look like a top-two team in the world. They have yet to win a tournament this season, but claimed silver from IEM Katowice 2023, were second in European RMR; and made the finals of IEM Rio 2023, which is not a small feat.

Even at the Major, Heroic have looked flawless. They demolished FaZe Clan, Apeks, and Team Liquid, proving that they’re more than ready to win their first Major title – however, there’s always a “what if” when we talk about Heroic and their chances to win any big event.

That mainly has to do with Heroic’s tendency to choke at the final hurdle, which has happened numerous times over the last few years. And yet, this time, it feels different.

Heroic Squad & Team News


Heroic have not announced any roster changes.

  • Casper "cadiaN" Møller
  • René "TeSeS" Madsen
  • Rasmus "sjuush" Beck
  • Jakob "Jabbi" Nygaard

FaZe Clan Form


FaZe Clan achieved what seemed impossible on Tuesday when they came back from being 9-15 down on the deciding map to steal the series away from Natus Vincere and lock in a spot in the playoffs. The fact that FaZe managed to accomplish that is a strong testament to their quality and ability to deliver in clutch situations – and that’s what wins you Major titles.

Admittedly, FaZe haven’t impressed in the games leading to the series against NaVi, with defeats against Heroic and Into the Breach, nor were they too convincing in their wins against Bad News Eagles and 9INE. Nevertheless, you can never really tell when FaZe will turn on, and if they do, they just might go all the way.

FaZe Clan Squad & Team News


No changes for FaZe Clan.

Verdict

Heroic are expected to win, and I don’t feel like that’s a wrong assessment. They’ve looked phenomenal over the last few months and are clearly one of the main candidates to win the Major.

We have to respect FaZe Clan, who can easily come out on top of this affair, but there’s no denying that Heroic have looked much better lately. I like Heroic at the offered odds, and I’m adding a smaller position on the correct score market.
