NRG are currently 3-5 in league stage and are 8th in the standings. Here's how they can still make playoffs.
Lev and Sen are confirmed to be in playoffs while mibr and furia are done for this season.
now the remaining teams are
Kru 5 2 0 11/6 +38
G2 5 3 0 11/7 +33
c9 5 3 0 11/10 +8
EG 4 4 0 9/11 -19
100T 3 4 0 7/8 -2
NRG 3 5 0 7/10 -10
LOUD 3 5 0 9/11 -13

Im going to assume most likely winner for every remaining game so that NRG can make it to the playoffs

so kru has 3 games remaining NRG, G2 and C9
they win against C9 but lose against NRG and G2,
overall 6 4
Kru qualifies for playoffs.

G2 has 2 games remaining KRU and SEN
they win against kru and lose against SEN,
overall 6 4
G2 also qualifies for playoffs.

Loud has 2 games left 100T and LEV
they win against 100T but lose against LEV,
overall 4 6
LOUD doesn't make it to the playoffs.

That leaves us with 4 teams and 2 playoffs spots.

Now C9 loses both their games against NRG 0-2 and KRU 1-2
overall 5 5 0 12/14 -2map diff

EG has 2 remaining games 100T and mibr,
they win against mibr 2-0 but loses against 100T 1-2
overall 5 5 0 12/13 -1 map diff

100T has 3 remaining games mibr, EG and loud
they win against mibr 2-0, EG 2-1 but lose against loud 1-2
overall 5 5 0 12/11 +1 map diff

NRG has 2 remaining games kru and c9
they win against both kru and c9 2-0
overall 5 5 0 11/10 +1 map diff

overall standings of these remaining teams,
......
NRG 3 5 5 5 11 10 +1
100T 3 4 5 5 12 11 +1
...........................................
EG 4 4 5 5 12 13 -1
c9 5 3 5 5 12 14 -2
.....

NRG and 100T qualifies for playoffs alongside LEV, SEN, KRU, G2.

Edit:
NRG lost a map against kru so the odds are lower than last time but still possible if:

NRG 2-0 C9
NRG overall 5 5 11/11 +0

loud lose both games
LOUD overall 3 7 9/15 -6

C9 lose against NRG 0-2 , lose against KRU 0-2/ 1-2
C9 overall 5 5 11/14 or 12/14 -3/-2

EG win 2-0 against mibr, lose 0-2/1-2 against 100T
EG overall 5 5 11/13 or 12/13 -2/-1

100T win both games they qualifies

overall

....

100T 6 4 13/8
KRU 6 4 14/10 or 14/11
NRG 5 5 11/11
..................................................
EG 5 5 12/13 or 11/13
C9 5 5 12/14 or 11/14

wrap it up nrg are ass rn (as an nrg fan). even if they do make playoffs they’re getting knocked out and even if they do qual for champs they’re getting stomped by TH GENG PRX without a doubt. they just need to look for a new roster for 2025

I won't say they're ass because they played 2 of the top 3 americas teams and considering this team is formed a month ago id say they did pretty decent job. A few thrifties and the result could've been different. And if we're talking about getting stomped by champs teams, I still belive in fns with this much time surely he can cook. Final thing is firepower and surely they're lacking firepower atm but I believe in my goat s0m

even if their strats are good it’s undeniable their solo performances are the biggest issue right now. we all know s0m is the goat mechanically but isn’t playing like himself. fns has worse aim than boaster, victor and crashies just aren’t good anymore. the only two solid players on NRG are ethan and s0m. yes brain is important, but we’re in a meta where the best teams have 4/5 5/5 aimers and no matter how much of an FNS masterclass is seen, if they can’t shoot they can’t win. it’s the simple truth. valorant is changing. it’s not 2022 or 2023. their strats may be good and i don’t doubt it, but the reason they r ass is bc of lack of firepower and individual stepping up.
