Both rosters bring real fragging power: Fire Flux's Quality at 1.16 / 81.31 ADR is the highest individual rating in the match, but BIG Academy answer with three players at 1.06+ (JBOEN 1.09, prosus 1.08, D0nii 1.06). Career numbers favour FF marginally on rate (58.62% vs 55.61%) but BIG Academy have nearly three times the sample size at 579 matches — the deeper baseline is theirs.Why the market backs BIG AcademyThunderpick's 1.50 / 2.40 line gives BIG.A a 67% market-implied win rate.
