Nemiga Gaming Have to Prove More
Nemiga have far exceeded everyone’s expectations at PGL Masters Bucharest, having defied all the odds by reaching the final four. That accomplishment, however, comes with an asterisk.
Nemiga Gaming made it through the group stage with a 3-2 record, which includes defeats against BetBoom Team and Aurora Gaming and victories against Legacy, DENDELE CS, and The MongolZ. In other words, Nemiga beat three weaker teams – none of which qualified for the playoffs – and lost badly against two stronger squads.
In the first round of the playoffs, Nemiga Gaming had to deal with a slightly stronger challenger in FUT Esports, but even that does not prove that Nemiga can handle tier-1 teams. So despite their success so far, Nemiga still have to prove they can trouble squads like Vitality.

Team Vitality Are on A Roll
Team Vitality travelled to Romania with a huge question mark above their heads, as they are without their in-game leader, apEX. However, even with this handicap, Vitality have been excellent, having made it through the group stage with victories against 9z Team, The MongolZ, and Natus Vincere.
In the first round of the playoffs, Vitality once more faced NaVi and took care of business with a 2-1 reverse sweep, winning 5-12 on Cache, 13-9 on Mirage, and 13-6 on Dust II.
A lot of Vitality’s success this tournament has been thanks to ZywOo, who is the tournament’s second-highest-rated player at a 1.39 performance average. Even flameZ, mezii and ropz have been stepping up, posting 1.14, 1.13, and 1.33, respectively.

Verdict
Nemiga Gaming have been outstanding for their standards this tournament, but they have yet to handle an elite team, and their losses to Aurora Gaming and BetBoom Team indicate that Nemiga might not be well-equipped to do so.
Team Vitality have been playing surprisingly well even without their in-game leader, and have shown better form, so it comes as no surprise that they’re expected to come out ahead on Friday.
One thing to note is that Nemiga tend to do better on Nuke, Ancient, and Anubis, but Vitality like to ban the three maps, giving the Bees an additional advantage with map veto.
This can easily end in a 2-0 sweep.
