Map 3 - Haven (SEN pick Attack)
if this is the real map pool i think sen might have a good chance against mibr. if sen let mibr pick icebox its over for them 2-0 clean for mibr
MIBR ban Fracture
SEN ban Icebox
MIBR pick Lotus (Sen pick Attack)
SEN pick Haven (MIBR pick attack)
MIBR ban Pearl
SEN ban Split/Ascent
Ascent/Split (sen pick defense)
They might ban split because then for ascent they get to start defense
Sen is definetly banning icebox not because they are bad on it but because its mibr best map.
SEN has to pick Pearl, no? They are 100% on split 1 and mibr looks kinda shaky in it, even tho they won it vs g2

Finally someone predicting maps.
I know Fracture is banned guaranteed.
Ascent Lotus decider: Haven. That's all I know.
Mibr ban fracture
Sen ban icebox
Mibr pick lotus, I doubt they go split bc while sen have lost it to g2 , but also 13-1ed 100t and won it against loud.lotus have went 0/2 with 2 diff comps so prolly shaky . Tbh I think sen pick defense they have looked better on it but not sure.
Sen pick haven. There’s a reason teams ban sen’s haven now. It’s undeniably good. They lost once on it and that was on the yoru iso comp. The other 3 they have won 13-4, 13-5, 13-4. If I’m mibr I pick attack first, their attack looks strong so it’s best to try and have early momentum.
Mibr ban ascent(it’s just unbelievably weak and honestly if they have something on fracture I would rather them play that)
Sen ban split
I think from their pov they just got worked on it by g2, might seem anti strattable. And this leaves pearl an undeniable map. I think mibr are ok on pearl and better on split. I think it just makes sense
On pearl sen take attack.
Honestly I think they should fight lotus , yes I know that they beat g2 on icebox, but I think mibrs icebox is undeniable . Series should end 2-1 sen unless they surprise me on lotus. Sen’s map pool looks ridiculous now
The map veto can go 2 directions I think :
Route 1 :
Mibr bans ascent
Sen bans fracture
Mibr picks icebox (Their best map. They are currently the best on the map in the world I think.) (If u guys are thinking why Sen would leave it up, they have looked solid on it with the new comp and I think they would take their chances of anti-stratting this map and playing it rather than ban it)
Sens picks Haven (Sen are the best in the world on this map and u can't convince me otherwise. They have shown multiple different looks on it and look good on every look.) (Mibr leaves it open for the same reasons Sen leaves Icebox open)
Mibr bans Split
Sen bans Lotus
Decider is Pearl. (Both teams look good on it and it will be a banger map 3)
Route 2 :
Mibr bans Fracture
Sen bans Icebox
Mibr picks Lotus (Sen don't look good on this map at all. They struggle to play this map for some reason. Their timings and coordination is off as well)
Sen picks Haven (Best map for them by a long shot and the reason they don't pick Ascent here is cuz they can't start defense)
Mibr bans Ascent
Sen bans Split
Decider is Pearl. (No matter what I think Pearl is gonna be the decider map cuz both teams would like a good map for their teams on the deciding map of the match and thus will shape the veto that way)
I think Route 1 is the best possible route for both teams because through that veto both teams get a map they are the best in the world at. And then pearl as the decider. It also makes more sense in my opinion for Mibr to ban Ascent rather than Fracture because they know that Fracture is Sen's perma ban. So that way they can force the veto in a specific direction as well.
