    • Attack Winrate: 79.5%
    • Defense Winrate: 58.3%

    Team Liquid has proven to be the most dominant force on Abyss, thanks to their aggressive 79.5% attack win rate, the highest among all teams. While DRX has a slightly stronger defensive rating (63.6%), Liquid’s consistency across a larger sample size (4 matches vs. 2) makes them the most reliable performer. With strong executions and post-plant setups, expect Liquid to look for Abyss as a comfort pick in Bangkok.

    Best Team on Bind and Lotus: Trace Esports

    • Attack Winrate on Bind: 51.7%
    • Defense Winrate on Bind: 66.7%

    Despite Vitality boasting a stronger attack winrate (58.8%), Trace Esports edges them out due to their dominant defensive win rate (66.7%). Their ability to lock down sites and win crucial defensive rounds gives them a well-balanced performance on Bind). Expect them to leverage this strength, especially against teams that rely on explosive attacking playstyles.

    • Attack Winrate on Lotus: 70%
    • Defense Winrate on Lotus: 59.4%

    Lotus) remains one of the strongest maps for Trace Esports, who boast an impressive 70% attack winrate, giving them a crucial advantage in matches that demand early-round control. T1 is also undefeated on Lotus, but Trace’s superior attacking presence gives them the slight edge. Their well-rounded ability to play both aggressive and defensive styles makes them the most dangerous team on this map.

    However, Trace have not played that many maps in their Kickoff run, limiting themselves to a handful of maps where they have seen success. Picking a map outside of their map pool might be the play against them.

    Best Team on Fracture and Haven: EDward Gaming

    • Attack Winrate on Fracture: 80%
    • Defense Winrate on Fracture: 60.9%

    EDG’s 80% attack winrate makes them the most lethal team on Fracture, capable of breaking through even the toughest defensive setups. While DRX has played the map more frequently, EDG has outperformed them on both sides, making them the clear favorite. Their strategic depth and ability to control the map gives them a significant edge.

    • Attack Winrate on Haven: 96.8%
    • Defense Winrate on Haven: 64.3%

    Haven has been EDward Gaming’s playground, with a staggering 96.8% attack winrate, making them nearly unstoppable when they control the pace of the game. Although Team Liquid has a slightly higher defensive win rate (72.2%), EDG’s offensive dominance makes them the strongest team on this map. With two 13-0 shutouts under their belt, EDG will be a serious threat on Haven in Thailand.

    Best Team on Pearl: G2 Esports

    • Attack Winrate: 72.4%
    • Defense Winrate: 60%

    G2 Esports stands out as the only provided team with data on Pearl, but their 72.4% attack winrate and strong defense make them a clear favorite. With dominant performances against Leviatán and Sentinels, G2 has proven their ability to control both sides of the map effectively. Expect them to lean on Pearl as one of their strongest picks in Bangkok.

    Best Team on Split: Sentinels

    • Attack Winrate: 56.1%
    • Defense Winrate: 57.1%

    Sentinels have established themselves as the most consistent team on Split, winning three out of four matches, including a dominant 13-4 victory over G2. Their ability to control both attack and defense rounds at nearly equal efficiency makes them a difficult opponent to beat. With a deep tactical playbook and a strong defensive setup, Split will be a go-to map for Sentinels in Bangkok.

    Conclusion

    The map veto process will play a crucial role in determining success at Masters Bangkok.

    • EDward Gaming’s dominance on Fracture and Haven makes them one of the most balanced teams in the event. If they can shore up weaknesses on maps like Lotus, they will be a serious title contender.
    • Sentinels and G2 will likely prioritize Split and Pearl, where they have shown their highest win rates and consistency.
    • Trace Esports will look to leverage Bind and Lotus, two maps where their strong defensive fundamentals give them a distinct edge.
    • Team Liquid’s performance on Abyss will be key, as they hold the best attack winrate on the map, making them a dangerous force in clutch situations.

    Ultimately, the teams that adapt best to shifting meta trends, anti-strat effectively, and refine their weaker maps will be the ones who rise to the top. While each team has standout maps, their ability to maintain high win rates across a broad map pool will be the key to lifting the trophy in Bangkok. Expect thrilling clashes, calculated adjustments, and potential upsets as the world’s best teams battle for supremacy!
