BLAST analysis and Cologne preview on HLTV Confirmed with pita

The former NIP and Copenhagen Flames coach joins for the show at 20:00 .

The Fall season is heating up with one of the premier tournaments around the corner, IEM Cologne. Chad "⁠SPUNJ⁠" Burchill, Milan "⁠Striker⁠" Švejda and Zvonimir "⁠Professeur⁠" Burazin are joined by Faruk "⁠pita⁠" Pita to talk about the upcoming event and break down what happened in Denmark for the BLAST Premier Fall Groups.

The main talking point will certainly be Liquid's excellent debut, who topped their group over Natus Vincere. Similarly, we'll discuss the new Cloud9, and different looks Ninjas in Pyjamas showed at the event.

Are G2 the real deal and should we ring the alarm bells for FaZe any time soon based on what we've seen? Or maybe we should wait to see what will happen in Cologne? Tune in to the show to hear what we expect from the German tournament.
