Gambit, Acend, Fnatic and FPX are my guesses. Though I think it would be great for the scene if a Turkish team makes it. G2 is a bit threat too, even though they currently are looking horrible in the Grand Final, they have looked really good before hand. Saving strats is kind of a meme, but they legit might be as they have already locked in great seeding for the playoffs. Could also just be a very bad off day, those happen.
kocunar [#3]I dont see Liquid qualifying
Nah ez for liquid , they went very close with Fnatic and FPX and if ScreaM performs it will be like the last masters all over again ( yea i have a liquid flair)
alara_acendfan [#7]na still thinking liquid and fnatic are valuable teams in eu
fnatic literally 2 months old team and liquid didn't make it to main event twice before masters 2
Im not from NA dude

NA geography
DELUSIONAL_NUKKYE_FAN [#19]Just because G2 got smacked in the final doesnt mean they're worse than Fnatic especially after beating them twice
Ye but both fnatic and liquid had 3 weeks break after masters and they both lost one round before qualyfing. They will be super motivated to win and can catch up the 3 weeks now. Its gonna be close for sure but if i put someone else out of there its gotta be gambit, aslong as liquid and fnatic qualify for finals off course

Also its important to mention G2 probably wont face Acend in EMEA playoff due to seeding

Well now G2 will have a month to practice while fnatic and liquid will be playing in open qualifiers

G2 also only pracced with their final roster for about 10 days before masters. No reason for G2 to not improve significantly over the upcoming month either
kocunar [#3]I dont see Liquid qualifying
I think its who ever gets first in the next one gets easily into finals alongside with acend, because they play g2 in round 2 and i think both liquid and fnatic should win that
PrTsty [#17]Btw Liquid coach said that both fnatic and liquid had a three week break after rejkjavik and liquid had only scrimmed breeze 5 times still played very well, thats why i put them up there
G2 only scrimmed 2 weeks total with their roster
DELUSIONAL_NUKKYE_FAN [#30]G2 only scrimmed 2 weeks total with their roster
Ye i see a chance for g2 and fpx, maybe also navi
DELUSIONAL_NUKKYE_FAN [#33]This is probably the most expected scenario
wait i forgot about Guild, they can beat fpx.
DELUSIONAL_NUKKYE_FAN [#26]Well now G2 will have a month to practice while fnatic and liquid will be playing in open qualifiers
They get directly to challengers 2
PrTsty [#35]They get directly to challengers 2
I had forgotten aboit that, but G2 will have more practice anyways
Glycoroldas [#27]G2 also only pracced with their final roster for about 10 days before masters. No reason for G2 to not improve significantly over the upcoming month either
True but might also be a honey moon period. We will see I guess they might aswell take a spot off gambit or fnatic/liquid depending on how the bracket works

Yeah you're also right. I certainly hope G2 is not having their Liquid masters run moment and they will actually seriously consider bootcamp and serious preperation for EMEA.
DELUSIONAL_NUKKYE_FAN [#31]You guys are highly underrating Guild
i see guild before g2 and fnatic on bo3. guild has to work on their breeze
wedqatwrtgehge [#21]G2*
fpx is hiding a lot of strats. i am exicted to see the emea playoffs. in eu everything can happen.
PrTsty [#28]I think its who ever gets first in the next one gets easily into finals alongside with acend, because they play g2 in round 2 and i think both liquid and fnatic should win that
Lmao you would be dumb to think liquid and fnatic can beat G2.
Glycoroldas [#38]Yeah you're also right. I certainly hope G2 is not having their Liquid masters run moment and they will actually seriously consider bootcamp and serious preperation for EMEA.
they are going bootcamp in berlin on 1 august i saw on lucas rojo stream. they are going to practice very hard.
im excited to see G2 again in a month. after all these months of not qualifiying....

Personally I'd put SMB(Blaze) over Fnatic in their current state. but ehh who knows. Gambit look strong but idk they seem to just kinda be ehh sometimes even though they look so good right before that. SMB literally was off to a bad start but then literally just started destroying and they literally are the turkish super team. They have very good firepower. I wouldn't be surprised to see them beat the shit out of some other EMEA teams and Liquid and G2 fans fucking crying and those annoying shits deserve that.
i think it is still too early to call. liquid and fnatic were heavily experimenting with their lineups (fnc triple controller on bind, jammpi on controler and etc.) and i think when stage 2 comes they would have solidified what they want from their teams. if i have to do a prediction now i would say: acend, fnatic, gambit and i would put fpx over g2(just to be disappointed by fpx again :) ).

Wtf are you talking about man, Kay/o changes completely the meta. Most of the actual strats will be useless for the EMEA finals
asseater4life [#47]they are going bootcamp in berlin on 1 august i saw on lucas rojo stream. they are going to practice very hard.

Niceee, thanks for getting this information from lucas' stream as I now can stop spamming nukkye's chat with "bootcamp when" question. Yeah this is a positive, my worst fear as a G2 fanboy(in reality delusional_nukkye_fan as I only started stanning G2 after their roster shuffle) would be them getting complacent with this result.
DELUSIONAL_NUKKYE_FAN [#43]Anyway I would say that there might be surprises due to Kay/o being enabled
btw are you also G2 fan or just nukkye
alara_acendfan [#55]you had 100t flair so i assumed that srry
maybe look at my flag lmao, no worries tho
PrTsty [#58]maybe u are from NA with your low geography
1.idon't have to know all flags in the world especially one like bosnia's
2.idon't say to people that they are bad at geography just because of their nationality
3.i know where bosnia is located on the map

it was a joke but you should at least now wich flags belong to eu lol, ayways
Mortadelo [#51]Wtf are you talking about man, Kay/o changes completely the meta. Most of the actual strats will be useless for the EMEA finals
and? for example i saw new sova darts, even on bind. there are many plays that you can invent. Or do you think that Angel1 sat there for 3 months after stage 2 and didn't come up with anything?
