?The first semi-final for the 2022 BLAST Premier Spring Showdown takes place on Friday with the fourth-ranked team in the world, Heroic, taking on the fifth-ranked team in the world, ENCE. These two rosters won their quarter-final BO3 series with relative ease. Heroic beat NKT 2-0 (16-7 and 16-11) and ENCE beat Copenhagen Flames 2-1 (16-7, 10-16 and 16-9).

Heroic did what was expected of them by beating NKT in comprehensive fashion and finishing their series in quick time. Heroic took NKT’s map pick, Inferno 16-7, after a dominant T-side taking a 13-2 lead at half-time, they then quickly wrapped up the map eight rounds later. On the second map Nuke, which was Heroic’s map pick, the Danes went into half time down 10-5 after a very good CT-side by NKT, but once Heroic switched sides they were dominant once again going on a 11-1 run to finish the map 16-11 and win the series 2-0.

Heroic are now on a four game win streak after they won all three of their matches in the PGL Major Antwerp Europe RMR A finishing in top spot, and they now add the win over NKT to the streak. Over the win streak Heroic has had three different members of their roster finish on top of the scoreboard, with Rene “TeSeS” Madsen, Casper “cadiaN” Moller and Martin “stavn” Lund twice, all finishing the last four series with the highest ratings for the roster in their wins.

CS:GO ESPORTS BETTING GUIDE

ENCE took down Copenhagen Flames 2-1, with both teams taking the opposing teams map pick. ENCE took Copenhagen Flames map pick Vertigo 16-7, where ENCE opened up the first half on a 6-0 run and finished the half up 11-4. They then only needed eight more rounds to win the first map. Copenhagen Flames were able to level the series at one-all after winning ENCE’s map pick, Mirage, 16-10. ENCE and Copenhagen Flames were left with Ancient as the last map, which ENCE have a great record on and they win 62% of their matches on Ancient over the last three months. Therefore, they were always going to be the favourite heading into the last map and the favourites did run out victors, 16-9.

The major catalyst for ENCE’s solid results and continued rise up the world rankings stems from the outstanding last three months that Lotan “Spinx” Giladi has had for the team. “Spinx” has been by far the best player for ENCE with an average rating of 1.13 out of 2 over the last three months. From the last three series that ENCE has played, “Spinx” has really put the team on his back recording a 1.3 rating average, whilst also averaging a +21 kill/death differential. If ENCE are going to continue their great form and advance to the final of this event, they will need someone to help “Spinx” out, because Heroic won’t be beaten by just one player.

The two highest ranked teams at this event will battle it out in the first semi-final for the first spot in the grand final. ENCE are on a great run over the last few months and Heroic are on a four match win streak, so this series should be a belter. We should be seeing a complete series here from both teams, hence we suggest betting in the total maps market. We will be taking the over 2.5 maps at -111.11 with BetOnline.
