TYLOO have surpassed everyone’s expectations this event by making it through Stage 1, and are now just one win away from reaching Stage 3.
They’ve beaten a couple of solid teams en route to here, including paiN Gaming and Astralis, which alone should give hope that the Chinese outfit can do damage on Monday.
9z Team have been as good as expected, with wins against Astralis and FlyQuest and one loss against Team Spirit. Those results, while decent, prove nothing, and it only confirms that the two squads are fairly equal form-wise.
- TYLOO are playing well
- 9z Team have more to show
- A close game is not unlikely

TYLOO Continue to Impress
TYLOO travelled to Cologne as one of the weaker teams and among the prime candidates to crash out in Stage 1. While they came close to heading home early, TYLOO made it to Stage 2 with a 3-2 record and have since won two more games.
In Stage 2, TYLOO have bested paiN Gaming (13-9), lost to FUT Esports (9-13), and won against Astralis (13-6). Those are all seriously impressive results by TYLOO’s standards and results that prove the Chinese outfit can hang with squads at this level.
Ahead of the Major, TYLOO were ranked low mainly due to their weak map pool, as a team that only seemed to do well on Mirage and Inferno. While TYLOO have yet to prove anyone wrong there, they did have a solid showing on Nuke, so the map pool issues might’ve been overexaggerated.

| June 7 | IEM Cologne Major 2026 | Astralis | 13-6 (W) |
| June 6 | IEM Cologne Major 2026 | FUT Esports | 9-13 (L) |

9z Team Looking to Bounce Back
9z Team enter the fourth round of Stage 2 with a 2-1 record, having beaten FlyQuest and Astralis, and lost one game against Team Spirit.
After a strong start to the stage, 9z got stomped by Spirit, who crushed the South American squad 13-3 on Mirage and 13-1 on Nuke. As the result would suggest, it was a very one-sided game, with 9z proving they do not have what it takes to take on elite teams.
As bad as that loss was, it does not prove much, as Team Spirit are in exceptional form and arguably one of the main title contenders. More importantly, 9z Team have looked solid against Astralis and FlyQuest, suggesting they should do fine against TYLOO as well.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| June 7 | IEM Cologne Major 2026 | Team Spirit | 0-2 (L) |
| June 6 | IEM Cologne Major 2026 | Astralis | 13-5 (W) |
| June 6 | IEM Cologne Major 2026 | FlyQuest | 13-9 (W) |
| May 29 | Stake Ranked Episode 2 | FaZe Clan | 1-2 (L) |

Verdict
9z Team are expected to win on Monday, which should not sound too wrong. They hail from a stronger region and have left a mark in recent big events, unlike TYLOO, who’ve spent most of the season competing in lesser, regional competitions.
However, looking at the teams’ recent games and their form, it is easy to view TYLOO as a serious threat to 9z. Even though they’re known to have a shallow map pool, TYLOO have been playing well and have proven they can take on teams of 9z’s level with wins against paiN Gaming and Astralis.
At best, this is a 50/50 game, so I’m gladly taking TYLOO’s side.
