Projected veto

likely picks & bans
ihow this projection works

A hypothetical veto for this matchup, projected from how each team has picked and banned before (Bo3, Sashi vetoes first). It's a guide to the likely map pool and each side's win% on those maps, not a guarantee: teams adapt to the opponent and the event.

FOKUS habitually bans Anubis, Sashi's strongest maps (Inferno, Anubis, Cache all ≥60%). That's a standing habit (Anubis 57/67), not an opponent read, so expect Sashi to fight the veto for Nuke.
