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, GenOne 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.

Giant Pandas habitually bans Anubis, GenOne's strongest maps (Dust2, Anubis all ≥60%). That's a standing habit (Anubis 2/3), not an opponent read, so expect GenOne to fight the veto for Dust2.
