Go to match page →

FaZe arrive in far better shape than Envy — the recent results are not close. Form is the loudest signal in CS2 and the easiest to over-read, so it is one input here, not the answer.

Envy come in ranked #22 in the world, FaZe #17.

Our call publishes before kickoff. Free on csedge.io — premium members get every call up front.

Envy

✅ Dust2 strength: 79% winrate over 14 maps is a strong tactical pick

✅ Reliably steers the veto to Cache (52% pick rate)

❌ Only 36% winrate on Nuke over 11 maps — exploitable in the veto

❌ Practically never plays Mirage (100% banned), reducing veto flexibility

❌ Form slump: 3 losses in last 4 points to recent inconsistency

FaZe

✅ Nuke strength: 88% winrate over 8 maps is a strong tactical pick

✅ Head-to-head edge: 67% versus Envy historically gives veto and psychological advantage

❌ Only 29% winrate on Ancient over 7 maps — exploitable in the veto

❌ Heavy Inferno ban usage (88% bans) limits their map bargaining

The map pool

Win, pick and ban rates over the last three months. This is where a series is often decided before it starts — a team can steer the veto onto a map the opponent rarely plays.
