After a crushing 2-13 defeat to Legacy, Virtus.pro bounced back with a 2-0 win over The Huns — although it must be said the 13-6, 13-10 scoreline raises concerns when you consider the quality of opposition.

VP have now lost nine of their last 11 games as they continue to come to grips with a new-look roster. On that form, it’s hard to find a reason to back them.

3DMAX v LYNN VISION GAMING

Best Odds: 3DMAX -250 at SportsBetting | LVG +175 at BetOnline

3DMAX dismissed The Huns in their opener, cruising to a 13-1 victory over the Mongolian minnows. They couldn’t back it up, however, losing 6-13, 13-8, 7-13 against Legacy in a back-and-forth affair.

Lynn Vision Gaming looked to be on the way out after they lost 5-13 on the first map of their lower-bracket quarterfinal against GamerLegion. But the Chinese outfit dug deep, winning 13-8 on Train and 13-9 on Inferno to sneak into the semis.

Even after that reverse sweep, it is hard to see Lynn Vision winning this one. 3DMAX are competitive in S-Tier company these days, and the top Counter-Strike betting sites are giving us great odds for them to win in straight sets.
