Adrenaline Cyber League 2019: vs Virtus.pro
The start of the meeting is scheduled for 17:00 CET
Today in the semifinal match of Adrenaline Cyber League 2019, the 
NAVI.GG.BET team will face 
Virtus.pro. Match format — best of 3. The meeting will be held on the new patch 7.22!
“Bears” are coming into this tournament, not in their optimal form: Rostislav “fn” Lozovoi will be replacing Pavel “9pasha” Khvastunov. And the team switching up roles as well: fn will take a carry role, while Roman “RAMZES666” Kushnaryov will be on the duty of the offlaner.
Despite the rotation, the opponent, in any case, represents a great danger. You may recall that the team went to the qualification of The Kuala Lumpur Major with the same composition and won the first place without any particular troubles.
Natus Vincere players have faced “bears” quite recently — as part of the qualifying matches of EPICENTER Major 2019. Unfortunately, in the grand final “yellow-black” lost to Virtus.pro in a tense match — 2: 3.

The first phase of the game turned out to be quite equal: both teams had a practically equal number of kills, and also not a particularly big difference in gold. However, the first two lines in the net worth rating were occupied by the characters of Virtus.pro: the enemy Meepo was ahead of the nearest yellow-black hero by almost four thousand gold.
Subsequently, the enemy began to increase his advantage thanks to Meepo. As a result, by the 26th minute, the "bears" stormed the high ground and in turn destroyed the two sides, and then took down the main structure. NAVI could not oppose the opponent.

In the second game, the early game of the match turned out to be more successful for our boys, who even had a slight advantage. However, the enemy was able to carry out a good fight, killing some of the NAVI heroes: thanks to this action, the gold difference was reduced to nothing.
Midgame was memorable by a large number of team fights, of which one or the other Teams alternately came out as winners. The difference in gold also went back and forth.
At the 42 minutes mark, there was an important fight, after which the enemy lost the middle lane. Our guys after this result did not stop and broke the bottom side. Despite this, the players of Virtus.pro still managed to restrain the onslaught of the “yellow-blacks”, killing several heroes, and also later taking Roshan. The difference in gold at the 46-minute mark between the teams was 10k in favor of Natus Vincere.
The game ended at 62 minutes mark after the attack of our guys on the top lane. The damage from Sniper was too much, and Virtus.pro could not oppose anything to it.
Third game — Natus Vincere [1 : 2] Virtus.pro

In the third game, the enemy took control of the meeting almost from the very start: the "bears" defended the lanes better and, as a result, by the 19th minute they gained a significant advantage of 7k gold. This also contributed to a large number of deaths of our heroes.
The midgame was memorable by a large number of skirmishes, which sometimes even looked a little crazy (for example, the Storm Spirit who flew into the base of our team). Nevertheless, the advantage was still on the side of the enemy, which they used and made good tradeoffs and had an advantage of 11k gold by the 39th minute.
The meeting ended a few minutes after the continued attack of the "bears" who broke all sides. Despite all the attempts to restrain the onslaught of en Virtus.pro, the “yellow-black” had to admit their defeat — 1 : 2.
