FORZE vs GamerLegion Preview and Predictions: BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage

FORZE vs GamerLegion will be one of the Paris Major 2023 Challengers Stage Round 5 (2-2 pool) matces

FORZE and GamerLegion will continue their bid to bag Paris Major Legends Stage qualification when they meet later today. The Russians could have sealed the deal in their previous match, but they could not overcome a Håvard “⁠rain⁠” Nygaard-charged FaZe Clan side. GamerLegion have been walking on thin ice since suffering back-to-back defeats, but they have been excellent in their last two games and are now only a win away from the Legends Stage. CSGO betting lovers will find it difficult to call this seemingly even match-up.

FORZE

FORZE posted respectable numbers on both Overpass and Nuke, but they never appeared to be in control of the game against FaZe. Andrey “Jerry” Mekhryakov’s men had chosen Overpass as the opening map, but an incredible performance from rain, which saw him pick up 23 kills and 170 ADR, decided the map in FaZe’s favor. Russel “⁠Twistzz⁠” Van Dulken killed the match for FORZE on Nuke as he registered 15 kills and almost 100 ADR.
