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, Vitality 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.

FURIA habitually bans Ancient, Vitality's strongest maps (Overpass, Dust2, Inferno, Mirage, Ancient, Nuke, Cache all ≥60%). That's a standing habit (Ancient 45/59), not an opponent read, so expect Vitality to fight the veto for Dust2.
