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, Butterfly 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.

Nexus habitually bans Nuke, Butterfly's strongest maps (Mirage, Nuke, Dust2, Cache all ≥60%). That's a standing habit (Nuke 54/56), not an opponent read, so expect Butterfly to fight the veto for Nuke.
