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, Imperial 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.

BESTIA habitually bans Anubis, Imperial's strongest maps (Nuke, Mirage, Anubis, Cache all ≥60%). That's a standing habit (Anubis 61/71), not an opponent read, so expect Imperial to fight the veto for Mirage.
