VCL EMEA WINNERS

Polaris: Fokus

• I think they are slightly ahead of the chasing pack (apeks,vamonos,bonk)
• Having purp0 will be big. Only issue is role comfortability which should be sorted out by now

Spain: Rebels

• Its a bit weird to pick now since the season has already started.
• h1ber has been massively underperforming for tq. kpi also look good

France/Benelux: Mandatory

• coming off winning the coup de france, I think they are clear favourites to win.

Dach: Mouz

• Good pick up in iluri (ex-fokus), obnoks (ex-big), murii (part of the dsyre dach winning roster)
• Attax and ovation could cause an upset though

Turkey: Parla

• We all know how good parla is. Good pickup in socialbee
• ff and sm shouldnt be overlooked though

East: Acend

• The big fish in the league
• a squad with alot of talent like Alive and monsteerr

Italy: GMT

• This is a hard one as my knowledge of italian valorant isnt the best
• Bipo and HearthBeat provide good experience from a multitude of different tournaments.

Portugal: GTZ

• Maybe an underrated pick. GTZ has 4/5 of the dach winning squad.
• The main competition being saw. I see this league being a two horse race

Mena: RAAD?

• not much info on mena (maybe im stupid)
• RAAD has been a staple in mena. good recent results

What would you change?
How wrong are these picks?
any other teams I should look out for?

About Spain, Rebels is definitely not winning, maybe they look good from the outside but they have a weak roster, the 3 Spanish are not top tier in the league and Vokashu can't just solo carry. My guess is that they will end up like top 5. I think they actually have a lot more chances for second split when the 3 rookies get more experience and Janny becomes national.

Rn looks like KPI is the main contender, and then Case and TQ just need more time to work

Yeah i did feel like my rebels pick was off.
in fairness those spanish rbls players are putting up the numbers right now (but its slightly skewed by them absolutely stomping ucam)
Kpi are looking very good.
thanks for the insight though

bro that was 2021
fpx didnt even have ardiis back then

Apeks? i think they have a solid team and could possibly win it. Look out for keiko, that mf is a demon

Apeks looks good, but Fokus has a lot of firepower in purp0, Jugi, Lime and Lewis. Apeks definitely has the experience factor, but I think Fokus looks better unless Apeks' players are on crazy form.

yeah they are good.
though fokus probably got the upper hand especially going into the first split.
especially with them being together for a bit longer
keiko was a good pick up especially from a rival (bonk)

I agree with most, but would maybe put Case over Rebels for Spain. They have started slow, but their potential is pretty high IMO. Actually Spain is bit hard to predict atm.

yeah FaZe owns all of these frauds

yeah i was talking to mortadelo about spain
#3 and #4.
in all honestly it could be pretty open between the top teams. if case and tq sort out their issues they will be very strong

C9 would win all

And Fokus was missing their best player and played with stand-in instead

It's impossible to keep up with the insight of all the leagues, I do feel my picks are kinda off on other leagues too. At the end we kinda gotta base off impressions

If you were to do a rough list of the other leagues is there anything else we would have different?

truly on form

vern [#31]

truly on form

Yeah today they were on form. I was bit worried of guys like Magum and even Enzo, but they have performed well so far.

apeks outstratted them imo.
fokus only adjusted to the phoenix towards the end of pearl and it was already too late
