Counter-Strike: The Huns Esports vs Not A Squad Esports (BO3) - IEM Beijing: Asian Open Qualifier Playoffs (Resolved)
Game context
The Huns Esports, a Mongolian squad ranked around #99-117 globally with core players including nin9, Bart4k, controlez, and recent addition ANNIHILATION under coach carnage, enter this BO3 as clear favorites due to their established regional presence and experience in events like PGL Astana 2026 and multiple MESA and BLAST qualifiers. They have shown mixed but competitive recent form, including 2-1 wins over Chinggis Warriors alongside losses to stronger sides such as Rare Atom. Not A Squad Esports, a low-profile Chinese roster with scant documented results or roster depth, lacks comparable track record or HLTV visibility. The single-elimination format rewards the more seasoned team’s map pool familiarity and execution in advancing to the closed qualifier, though BO3 variance and any last-minute roster or ping factors could influence outcomes in this Asia-focused online playoff.
