After a long streak of underwhelming results, HEROIC showed some fight with a top-four finish at Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2024 and a silver medal from Elisa Masters Espoo 2024.
While Damjan “kyxsan” Stoilkovski and co. still need more time to reach peak form, they are trending up and should be considered a serious threat to win ThunderPick World Championship 2024.
Legacy, like HEROIC, have shown good things of late, with just four losses over their last 15 outings. However, most of their wins over that stretch have come against lower-ranked regional opponents.
At $3.07 with the best Counter-Strike betting sites, Legacy are given a 32.6% implied probability of beating HEROIC. However, with the Norwegian side’s recent resurgence, that price should be a bit higher.

IMPERIAL ESPORTS vs NINJAS IN PYJAMAS CS2 BETTING & MATCH DETAILS |

|---|---|
| Best Odds: | Imperial $1.43 at GG Bet | NiP $2.78 at GG Bet |

Ninjas in Pyjamas’ roster changes in September have not resulted in any improvements in their competitive endeavours. Gareth “MisteM” Ries and co. are 1-9 from their last 10 fixtures, with a 23.5% win rate over the last three months.
Imperial Esports have not looked much better. The Brazilians recently suffered early exits from ESL Pro League Season 20 and Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2024, and they did not make it far at ESL Challenger League Season 48: South America, losing in the lower-bracket quarterfinals to RED Canids.
This is a clash between two struggling teams, and even though Imperial Esports recently beat paiN, Team Solid, and Sharks Esports, that is hardly more impressive than Ninjas in Pyjamas’ close losses against HEROIC, FaZe Clan, and B8.
This should be much closer to a coin flip than what the latest esports betting odds suggest. Take NiP at plus money.
