The MongolZ

MongolZ came first in the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024 group stage. MongolZ had to beat G2, MOUZ and Heroic to advance. The team is playing in the playoffs of a major for the first time. They look confident and the community believes they will succeed in China.

All five players did well in the opening stage. In the Elimination Stage, the individual numbers dropped a bit, but the overall quality of play stayed high. MongolZ attacked well in 61% of their rounds, but defended poorly against top teams (45% for the ST side). The Mongols look decent in the minority but not in the majority. Senzu was the best player on the roster. In the opening stage, he scored 1.63 HLTV points and led the league. In the elimination stage, he scored 1.27 and was in the top five. The MongolZ's success is due to good shooting.

The MongolZ won all the games in different scenarios. They can beat the best teams in their class and win against the best players in the world. The second map with Heroic is worth a mention. The Heroes could have mentally break their opponent in overtime after a tough battle. Still, the Mongols won the series and entered the playoffs. The team is strong all round. In 2024, they have been to LAN tournaments and stages frequently, and have experience winning at the tier-1.5 level. They are a young but very dangerous team from Asia, and they are capable of winning a few more matches against the top teams.

MOUZ

The Mice have almost quit the majors twice. The team lost to FaZe and The MongolZ but beat paIN Gaming, 3DMAX and MIBR. So, the team had problems in BO1 but not BO3. However, the Mice never defeated any team of the top 10. Will this affect the playoffs?

MOUZ fought hard against FaZe and The MongolZ, with the latter playing extra rounds. The Mice failed at the end of these maps, but they led in the score against FaZe and had two matchpoints against MongolZ. MOUZ looks more stable overall. The team is more successful in the majority, but weaker in the minority. By the way, xertioN stood out as the best player. He performed poorly against Pain Gaming but well against the others. He got 1.19 HLTV points for the Elimination Stage. All five players reached positive stats, above their career and tournament averages.

MOUZ is one of the top five HLTV teams. The Mice often make the playoffs but rarely win. The team had a short winning streak in late spring 2024, but then lost their title. MOUZ could make the top 4 or even the grand finals. The Mice always struggle against top teams, especially since their current opponent has already beaten them in Shanghai.

Expert Betting Tips

Bookmakers don't have a favorite in this series. HLTV is backing The MongolZ. They have won 13 matches in a row but don't have playoff experience. The Mice will be mentally strong but have a poor shooting performance. MOUZ will struggle but we hope The MongolZ's fairytale continues.
