G2 vence
Final result verified as Liquid 2-0 G2: Anubis 13-6 and Mirage 13-5. Our G2 55% thin favorite pick was incorrect; Liquid now has two meaningful current-event wins and should receive a temporary BLAST Bounty form/role-stability boost, not a permanent team upgrade.

Liquid have the strongest single-match momentum signal after a 2-0 over Vitality, but G2 retain the better baseline with a 3W-2L recent profile and a 2-1 opening win over Nemiga; our recent G2 pick was correct, but the three-map Nemiga result still keeps this as a thin edge.
Online stage; both sides are being evaluated primarily on current-roster online evidence and recent high-level samples, with no permanent carryover boost.
G2 are the higher-class side and our prior G2 read did not fail, but Liquid’s Vitality upset creates real pressure-transfer risk; this remains a thin favorite pick rather than a confident brand pick.
