Faze Clan vs Cloud9 Tips

Faze Clan, ranked 1st in the world in the CS:GO circuit, will face Cloud9, ranked 9th in the world, in the quarterfinals of the IEM Dallas tournament. Faze are backed to be too strong for Cloud9.

Stats

The two have played each other 14 times, with Faze winning 8 times, Cloud9 coming out on top 4 times and 2 matches going into overtime.
Cloud9 are on a 2-game winning streak.
FaZe were on an 8-game winning run before losing to ENCE in their last match

Faze Form

Faze were in exceptional form before their 1-2 loss to ENCE. They had won 8 matches in a row against several top opponents, including world number 2 Natus Vincere.

Most of these victories were quite comfortable as well, which goes to show just how dominant they have been for some time on the CS: GO circuit.

They’ve also beaten Cloud9 in 3 of their last 4 meetings, most recently at the PGL Major in Antwerp last month.

They don’t have much to fear heading into this tie. If they give it their best shot, Cloud9 won’t stand much of a chance considering the mismatch in skill.

Key to that will be 22-year-old Ropz. In recent months, he has averaged 0.73 kills per round, 0.58 deaths per round, had a 72.2% KAST and dealt 75 damage per round. He has an all-time K/D ratio of 1.21.

Cloud9 Form

Cloud9 have been in some patchy form with only 3 wins from their last 7 matches but are slowly finding their feet again with 2 wins on the trot. These were fairly easy victories against Liquid, ranked 13th in the world, and NIP, ranked 4th in the world.

They’ve won only once against FaZe during their 6 meetings from this year, which isn’t a great sign. They’ll desperately need 20-year-old sh1ro to have the game of his life or at least close. Sh1ro has the best stats among the players who’ll be competing in this match.

He has averaged 0.78 kills per round, 0.51 deaths per round, a KAST of 77.6% and dealt 76.6 damage per round in the last 3 months. He has an unbelievable all-time KD ratio of 1.45.

Verdict

Faze Clan v Cloud9

Faze are a fairly safe bet in this match. Their record against Cloud9 has been imperious this year and they should make it to the semifinals of the IEM Dallas 2022.
