Map 1 (Skyscraper) 2z6d5k

At Skyscraper, it was w7m that started on attack first. From the get go, their aggression reminded R6 fans why they are in the finals. And thanks to this aggression, they picked up the first 3 rounds with ease. Team Liquid recollected themselves and responded by winning round number four. But w7m again picked up the next two rounds before the sides were reversed.

Team Liquid started attack with newfound energy as they picked up the first 4 rounds to get back at the game. The scoreline was then tied at 5-5. The map could go to any team but it was w7m that picked up 2 more rounds to win the first map 7-5.

Map 2 (Bank) 614741

It was now time to play on Team Liquid’s pick as they started Bank on attack. This time it was Team Liquid that started the map off with a statement. They showed nothing but domination in the first 2 rounds as they picked up both. However, w7m levelled the odds as they then won 2 rounds of their own. A nail-biting 1v1 in round number 5 between resetz and Kheyze so resetz come out on top for Team Liquid. With w7m winning another round, the first half ended 3-3.

With w7m now on attack, they needed to step up to retain their lead in the series. They won their first round on attack but the second round was conceded to a defuse by Team Liquid. With round number 9 secured, w7m was in the lead again. Their lead was short-lived as Liquid then overtook them winning 2 rounds back to back. It was match point for Team Liquid but w7m wasn’t giving up that easy as they forced the match to go to overtime. With 2 rounds needed to win in overtime, w7m didn’t waste a minute to win both of the rounds and pick up map number two of the night.

Map 3 (Chalet) a1oz

Chalet was w7m’s last pick of the series. They needed to make their final map pick count if they wanted to clinch the championship in just 3 maps. Team Liquid started on attack but w7m took the first round of the map. The second round went to Team Liquid but w7m took the next to take back the lead. Things were going back and forth as Liquid yet again levelled the scoreline. And with both teams taking a round each between the 2 remaining rounds of the first half, the scoreline was level at 3-3.

With w7m now on defense, they had to be sturdy if they wanted to avoid another map. They looked relentless on defense as they kept picking up one round after the other. Despite a bold attempt by volpz in round 10, w7m saw it through and won Chalet 7-3 to pick up the title.

And just like that, w7m Esports have been crowned the champions of BLAST R6 Copenhagen Major.

Semifinals Predictions Of BLAST R6 Copenhagen Major 5h6g6o

With only four teams remaining, we are at the peak of BLAST R6 Copenhagen Major. Today we have the two semifinals: w7m Esports vs Soniqs & FaZe Clan vs Team Liquid. With two promising matches in store, let’s take a look at the predictions of BLAST Copenhagen semifinals.

BLAST R6 Copenhagen Semifinals Predictions 3e6u3t

FaZe Clan vs Team Liquid u6i4z

Rosters 6u106c

FaZe Clan 52621x
  • Jaime ‘Cyber’ Ramos
  • Lucas ‘soulz1’ Schinke
  • Victor ‘VITAKING’ Augusto dos Santos
  • Thiago ‘Handyy’ Sá Ferreira
  • Eduardo ‘KDS’ Chiste Fontes
Team Liquid 5e6624
  • André ‘nesk’ Oliveira
  • Luccas ‘Paluh’ Molina
  • Pablo ‘resetz’ Oliveira
  • Lorenzo ‘Lagonis’ Volpi
  • Gabriel ‘volpz’ Fernandes

Our Prediction 5u4v2a

The first semifinal of the night will be between FaZe Clan and Team Liquid. There’s no doubting that both are heavyweights in the world of Rainbow Six Siege. If we’re talking recent form, FaZe Clan have displayed a better performance during the playoffs finishing second to w7m. Meanwhile, Team Liquid finished 6th and barely made it into the finals stage. In of head-to-head, FaZe have won their last two meetings against Team Liquid. Can they do it this time around? Well, it will surely be a close one and it’s highly likely that we’ll play out all three maps. Owing to recent form, we predict a 2-1 victory for FaZe Clan.

W7m Esports vs Soniqs 4s463g

  • Pablo ‘Gryxr’ Rebeil
  • Richie ‘Rexen’ Coronado
  • Emilio ‘Geometrics’ Leynez Cuevas
  • Shaun ‘Gunnar’ Pottorff
  • Ben ‘CTZN’ McMillan

Our Prediction 5u4v2a

Our second semifinal of Copenhagen will be taking place between w7m and Soniqs. Both the teams have displayed a dominant form throughout the duration of the tournament. W7m were unbeaten during the playoffs winning all three of their matches. Meanwhile, Soniqs lost one match and it was against w7m themselves. With that in mind, it is highly likely that w7m will be repeating the result. Soniqs will have to put on a nasty show if they want to see themselves in the finals. So, we predict that it will be a 2-1 win for w7m esports.

We’ll see at the end of the night which two teams make their way to the finals of the BLAST R6 Copenhagen Major.

Third time might be the charm as M80 started to defend on Villa. M80 consecutive rounds on defense only conceding one round to Soniqs. Winning two rounds on attack wasn’t enough for Soniqs as M80 were just one round away from winning the series. And so, they did as they won 7-3 on Villa.

On Chalet, Beastcoast started on attack and the first half was fully controlled by them. Oxygen Esports managed to only pick up only two rounds on defense. They couldn’t manage to do a lot on attack and beastcoast picked up the series winning 7-3.

M80 will be facing SpaceStation Gaming tonight at the first upper bracket semifinals. On the other match, beastcoast will be facing DarkZero.
