The European Masters LoL semi-finals will consist of two games, Mousesports vs. Berlin International Gaming and Mousesports vs. Berlin International Gaming.
The first series will be close, with the result largely depending on the early game. The second series will likely go to Fnatic Rising given they do not tilt.
Mousesports vs. Berlin International Gaming
Mousesports were able to defeat Excel UK in the quarterfinals, 2-1. The team has unfortunately failed to rid their early game weakness, at best going even in the laning phase. While mousesports usually have a solid mid-game, they struggled in their second against Excel, failing to establish sufficient vision leading to them getting picked. Berlin International Gaming (BIG) on the other hand tend to have games filled with action in the earlier portion. This will heavily pressure mousesports who enjoy taking a slower early game. If BIG are able to execute early dives well to secure a few early kills, they will likely dominate the game.
Prediction: Mousesports 43% l Berlin International Gaming 57%
