CCT Global Finals picks — how did they go?
Two wins, one near-miss. The parlay didn’t land, but the day ended in profit. Here’s the full breakdown of what happened on the server.
Results CCT Global Finals 2026 April 25, 2026
HEROIC vs Monte
HEROIC win 2-1 · Maps: 13-9 / 11-13 / 13-11
OUR PICK Monte ML ~2.10
Loss
The read was right. That’s the frustrating part. Everything we said played out exactly as predicted — afro led the entire server across all three maps, the British duo of AZUWU and Gizmy were dreadful by the CS2 over the series and dragged Monte’s overall level down considerably. On the Monte side, the map pool advantage was real and the match was as close as the scorelines suggest. The difference in the end was nilo and xfl0ud both turning up simultaneously — the X-factor scenario we flagged as HEROIC’s route to winning. When those two are both hot in the same series, they’re very hard to stop. This one didn’t pay out, but we’re standing behind the pick. At 2.10 on what played out as a genuine coin flip, that’s exactly the kind of bet you keep making
100 Thieves vs NiP
NiP win 2-0 · Map 1 went to double OT · Map 2: 13-11
OUR PICK NiP ML 1.80
Win ✓
NiP won 2-0, which is exactly what we called — but the journey there required a couple of deep breaths. After a 6-0 and then a 9-3 first-half lead on map one, NiP somehow almost handed it back and were forced through two overtimes to close it out. device was trying to drag 100T over the line individually and at moments looked capable of doing it — but xKacpersky was the story of this series, and proved to be the difference NiP needed when things got tight. Map two followed the same script: scrappy, close, NiP just about holding on at 13-11. The pick landed and that’s what matters, but this one had plenty of people sweating.
Sharks vs BIG
BIG win 2-1 · Map 1: 13-1 · Map 2 (Overpass): 10-13 · Map 3: BIG win
OUR PICK BIG ML 1.32
Win ✓
Map one was the most convincing CS2 you’ll see at this level — BIG absolutely smashed Sharks 13-1 and it looked like this was going to be the cleanest 2-0 of the day. Then map two happened. Sharks somehow dragged themselves back into the series and stole Overpass — BIG’s own map pick — 13-10. If you had money riding on a 2-0 handicap, that’s where you lost it. For anyone on the BIG moneyline, there was a tense map three to sit through before blameF and the boys settled the matter and sent us home in profit. As we said in the preview — don’t go heavy at 1.32. Those of you who kept it as a parlay leg got the right outcome.
