ok hear me out. there are many curses in val. 2nd place curse, UF curse XSET 4th place curse (recently broken twice) etc. Optic might be making their own. Optic 3rd place. They barely squeaked out a 3rd place finish in copenhagen with a really easy schedule against an unexperienced XSET and fnc (?). Even their groups were easy, aside from LOUD, and they still managed to lose to guild. DRX looks stronger than ever, and its the opposite for OPTIC. Loud completely dominated that game. +DRX winning means a guaranteed 1st place finish thats not NA or EU.
