Natus Vincere Team Overview
📝Natus Vincere still hold the 3rd spot in the world rankings by HLTV, but a month's break has negatively affected their form. In the first two rounds, the opponents of the "born to win" were the two lowest-ranked teams in the tournament. Despite this, Andrey 'B1ad3' Gorodenskiy's team initially couldn't handle SAW (1:2), and then lost a map to TYLOO (2:1). In the past matches, only b1t helped the team maintain stability by winning numerous key moments.

Editorial Prediction
The Brazilians played very well in the last head-to-head match but missed out on the victory themselves. Considering the current form of Natus Vincere, paiN has a great opportunity to take revenge for the previous defeat. In past matches, the "born to win" lost a map to the two lowest-ranked teams in the tournament. Therefore, we believe that a victory for paiN with a handicap (+1.5) on maps is the most likely outcome of this matchup.
