AGO lost their opening match against Savage with 9-16 on Ancient and 13-16 on Vertigo. Meanwhile, Fnatic Rising slipped against BLINK with 6-16 on Ancient, 16-6 on Mirage, and 6-16 on Inferno.
While Fnatic Rising looked better than AGO did in their match, winning a map against BLINK is hardly an achievement. Admittedly, Fnatic played well, but AGO should prove to be a much tougher challenge for the youngsters.
At -185.19, AGO’s implied probability of winning this match is 64.9%, which sounds about right. Even though Fnatic Rising showed some flashes of greatness last year, they’re too inconsistent, and their map pool is limited to only Ancient, Overpass, and Dust II.

HAVU lost against Looking4Org last Thursday with 3-16 on Overpass and 14-16 on Inferno, suffering their fifth successive defeat. Lynn Vision Gaming were just as unconvincing in their Elisa Invitational opener last Wednesday when they lost against Eternal Fire with 9-16 on both Inferno and Dust II.
Both teams had a rough start to the tournament, yet HAVU are priced as -285.71 favourites to take down Lynn Vision, which doesn’t look right. But it’s nothing new to see the CS:GO betting sites overvaluing HAVU solely because they hail from a stronger region, which means very little.
That’s not to say that Lynn Vision Gaming are better than the Finns, but HAVU haven’t produced anything of real quality since their top-four finish at Pinnacle Fall Series #2 in November. We wouldn’t bet on the Asian squad to win, but at -119.05, we have to side with the outsiders to keep it close and cover the line.
