May 4th promises to be an exciting day for CS fans: three tournaments—BLAST Rivals Spring 2025, MESA Nomadic Masters Spring 2025, and Thunderpick World Championship 2025: European Series 1—are set to deliver intense matches. We've selected five of the most intriguing predictions based on team form, map pool, and current analytics.

Falcons vs. Vitality — Total Over 3.5 Maps (1.30)

These two teams will face off in the grand final once again, just like at IEM Melbourne, where the series ended 3-2 in favor of Vitality. We saw all five maps then, which was no surprise—both teams boast strong rosters and demonstrate a high level of play. Considering the strength and motivation on both sides, there are all the prerequisites to expect at least four maps played and a tense battle until the very end.

B8 to Defeat Chinggis Warriors 2-0 (1.48)

The third-place match will take place on the home turf for Chinggis Warriors, but this is unlikely to be a decisive factor. B8 looks more confident: they have a higher level of team play, experience, and a stronger map pool. All of this points to a clean 2-0 victory.

HEROIC to Win Against BIG (1.48)

In the grand final of MESA Nomadic Masters Spring 2025, evenly matched opponents will meet—the score is 2-2 in head-to-head encounters. However, HEROIC is currently in excellent form: they have already won seven matches in a row and appear more composed and stable than BIG. Under these conditions, HEROIC is deservedly considered the favorite.

BetBoom Team to Defeat RUBY 2-0 (1.95)

In the duel of two Russian-speaking rosters, BetBoom Team appears to be the favorite: they have more experienced players, regularly compete against strong opponents, and show confident results. Meanwhile, RUBY cannot boast either depth of roster or quality play against serious teams. A confident victory for BetBoom Team without dropping a map is expected.

Astrum to Win Against Metizport (2.00)

Astrum (ex-Aurora lineup) has already defeated Metizport twice in the past—with scores of 2-0 and 3-1—and currently looks convincing. Despite leaving their previous organization, the team retains its core and confidence in their actions. They went through the group stage undefeated (2-0), further reinforcing belief in their victory.

Remember to gamble responsibly: bets should be justified, not emotional. And remember: the winner is not the one who knows all the odds, but the one who can interpret them correctly.
