TheMongolZ are very likely to be in the top 10 of HLTV after Cologne, but they need to win at least one more match to consolidate the result. The current opponent is not dangerous enough to worry about the result. The Mongols' wins used to be sensational, but now the team is ready to make the playඣoffs🗹 at the Tier-1 tournaments.
In Cologne, The MongolZ beat Team Spirit (2:0) and had a very close encounter with SAW (1:2). Many in the community believed in the victory of the blitZ team, but the Portuguese were also well prepared for IEM Cologne. As time went on, the obvious stars in the line-up became clear - Senzu and 910 are doing very well in 2024, with HLTV ratings of over 1.1. Captain blitZ is also hanging in there with them, but he is more experienced than the rest of his teammates. BlitZ is pulling out very tough clutches and endings when 910 aꦚnd Senzu feel uncomfortable on the server. The MongolZ has become more strategically adept.
The MongolZ's biggest advantage in the distance is age (under 20 years old is the average). Mzinho recently turned 17, Senzu celebrated his coming of age in Cologne, Techno4K is 19, and the oldest players𒉰 in 910 and blitZ are 22 and 23 respectively. In the Asian region it is difficult to progress in principle, and here a young team is already getting on the nerves of all the top teams. The MongolZ won YaLLa Compass 2024, before that they reached the main stage of the majors and playoffs of ESL Pro League Season 19. The team is making rapid progress, and no one would be surprised to see The MongolZ make the playoffs at IEM Cologne 2024.
paIN Gaming
The Brazilians are al𓆉so on the rise. Before IEM Cologne 2024 paIN Gaming had a cosmic winrate, losing only two matches in thirty. In Cologne it was more difficult to keep the same bar, but the team is lucky on the grid, and they mostly play South American derbies. So far we can safely say that the biguไzera team dominates in their region.
PaIN Gaming met Team Liquid (1:2), Imperial Esports (2:1), MIBR (2:1), Natus Vincere (0:2) and 9z Team (2:1). It can be noticed that the team lost all matches against teams not from South America, and in the derby always turned out to be stronger. With this tendency paIN Gaming came to Cologne, before that it won all local qualifications for major tournaments and local events. But now there is a match against a team from Asia, and this is a 🎉fundamentally different way of looking at the game. The problem of paIN Gaming is simple - lack of practice on the international stage affects the quality of performance agai🅘nst less familiar teams.
The Brazilians play well in open shootouts and are better in attack than in defence. Biguzera is the most dangerous pl๊ayer in paIN Gaming, dealing 80 damage per round. But considering that the team wins only in derbies, the match with Mon🐓golians will be the last for paIN Gaming at IEM Cololgne 2024.
Expert Betting Tips
The Mongols were unable to comeback on the third map with SAW, and so could have played in the top set of Group A. Their opponent enjoys the luck of the tournament grid, in other conditions paIN Gaming would hardly guaran🧸tee themselves a 9-12th place in the tournament. The MongolZ should quietly win this encounter and advance to the final of the lower grid of Group A.
