HEAD-TO-HEAD \u2014 SPIRIT DOMINATE THE MATCHUP<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With the current rosters, Spirit fully control the head-to-head history. The team has won all four of the last maps against Liquid.<\/p>\n

During BLAST Open Rotterdam 2026, Spirit won 2:0, taking Mirage (13:8) and Ancient (13:11). A month later at IEM Rio 2026, the Russian roster repeated this result, again closing the series 2:0 after victories on Dust2 (13:11) and Ancient (13:2).<\/p>\n

Despite the poor head-to-head statistics, Liquid have looked much more confident recently. That is why the current series could become the most competitive one between these teams in recent months.<\/p>\n

CURRENT FORM<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Liquid \u2014 a confident return to the top 20
\nLiquid approach the quarter-final after a strong stretch. The team defeated G2, Vitality, and HEROIC, although it also suffered losses to FlyQuest, MIBR, and BetBoom.<\/p>\n

The best form is being shown by Jorko, who has a 1.11 rating over the last three months. He has become the main firepower of the updated roster. NAF and malbsMd also remain important, as they provide stability in rifle duels and help the team maintain a high tempo of play.<\/p>\n

The undisputed leader of the roster remains donk, who has a phenomenal 1.53 rating over the last three months. He also shows 0.97 kills per round and almost 98 ADR. sh1ro and magixx make a major contribution as well, while zont1x and tN1R provide stability in the team structure.<\/p>\n
