PGL Cluj playoffs preview
The PGL Cluj-Napoca playoffs are here, and FaZe should probably win the free tournament, but that’s a strong “should.”
They first have to go against SAW, a dead team, but that dead team has already overcome the likes of FlyQuest, Complexity and 3DMAX at this event.
Okay, FaZe really need to win this one.
On the same side of the bracket is two far harder opponents, Eternal Fire and Falcons. The Turks have already taken down Falcons twice this year, our money is on them, but Falcons are beginning to look like an actual team, so we do have our doubts.
It’s probably going to be the best game of the quarter-finals, so we’ll be tuning in, but we never miss a chance to watch XANTARES play.
The other side of the bracket sees paiN take on MOUZ, a game that we have no clue which way it will go.
Brollan’s MOUZ haven’t exactly been consistent yet, but they have performed slightly better than we expected. As for paiN, they’ve been waiting for a moment like this for a long time, and that hunger could carry them far.
It’s biguzera vs Brollan. Brazilian flair vs whatever MOUZ have got going on. It could bang. It could be entirely dreadful. There is a chance we shall be seated.
The final game sees The MongolZ take on Astralis, which given the absolute pumping the Danes just received at the hands of HEROIC, should go the way of The MongolZ.
This is probably their best chance to win an event all year, and it feels like a necessary next step on the ladder, too.
All we know is that The MongolZ are quite good and Astralis are rubbish, so we pray to God that we’re right on this one.
