The match will be played as a Bo3, and both teams have already started the tournament with a victory.<\/p>\n<p>BIG enter with a five-match winning streak. However, G2 have the higher world ranking and a stronger record on key maps. Therefore, the veto could determine whether BIG can turn their current momentum into an upset.<\/p>\n<h2>BIG Bring Strong Recent Form<\/h2>\n<p>BIG have won their last six matches, including a 13-9 victory over Aurora in their EWC opener. The German team also defeated Sashi, GenOne, Eternal Fire and Fluxo during the streak.

Nevertheless, their winning streak and strong records on Cache, Ancient and Inferno give them clear routes to compete in the veto.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_416215\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-416215\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-416215\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260606_Viola-Schuldner_IEM-Cologne_05284.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260606_Viola-Schuldner_IEM-Cologne_05284.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260606_Viola-Schuldner_IEM-Cologne_05284-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260606_Viola-Schuldner_IEM-Cologne_05284-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260606_Viola-Schuldner_IEM-Cologne_05284-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/20260606_Viola-Schuldner_IEM-Cologne_05284-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-416215\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Copyright by ESL<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <p class=\"article-h3\">read more<\/p>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <article class=\"club-hover-connect-parent\">\n    <div class=\"club-top-line\"><\/div>\n    <div class=\"club-row club-gutter-none\">\n                    <div class=\"club-col-4 club-col-6-xs\">\n                <figure class=\"picture-16x9 picture-with-gradient\">\n                    <a class=\"club-hover-connect club-hover-connect-img\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/mauisnake-names-five-underrated-cs2-players-to-watch-in-2026\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n                        <img src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Main-x-Name-17.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Mauisnake Names Five Underrated CS2 Players to Watch in 2026\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\">\n                    <\/a>\n                <\/figure>\n            <\/div>\n        \n        <div class=\"club-col-8 club-col-6-xs club-box-bg--gradient\">\n            <div class=\"club-box-def club-full-height\">\n                <div class=\"club-dynamic-dotted-wrap club-full-height\">\n                    <h3 class=\"club-h4-title\">\n                        <a class=\"club-link-primary club-hover-connect club-dynamic-dotted__text\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/mauisnake-names-five-underrated-cs2-players-to-watch-in-2026\">\n                            Mauisnake Names Five Underrated CS2 Players to Watch in 2026                        <\/a>\n                    <\/h3>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"club-bottom-line\"><\/div>\n<\/article>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>G2 Have the Ranking Advantage<\/h2>\n<p>G2 arrived as the No. 11 team in the VRS.
