Spirit meet BETBOOM at PGL Masters Bucharest 2026. The model has not priced this one yet — it waits for the map veto, because which maps get played moves the number more than anything else on this page. What follows is what we already know about both teams.

Head to head

No meeting between Spirit and BETBOOM in our records yet — this is the first one we cover.

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.

50%12 maps Mirage 50%10 maps
57%7 maps Nuke 67%6 maps

78%9 maps Anubis 50%8 maps

How they veto

The maps each side removes most often. Two teams that ban the same map hand the series to a third one neither wanted.

BETBOOM ban most often: Inferno 100%, Cache 33%, Dust2 28%

When the prediction goes up

Our call publishes before kickoff, never after — that is the whole point of keeping a public record. When it does, this page fills in with the probability for each team, the per-map calls once the veto is done, and afterwards the result and whether we were right.
