These are my predictions. this is not set up in places, but in the order of who i think will win. (from #1 being the best chance and last being the lowest chance) my predictions are:
#1 the guard (kinda depends though) they are the clear dark horses of the event. once again. each player have so much potential and individual skill as well as the chemistry to top it off. however, they are very inconsistent and inexperienced have have been performing very bad recently. if they can go back to their original from from stage one, they have what it takes to get through the event without dropping a single map, but at the end of the day, it all comes down to the way they perform. they could either go really well or really bad but they have a history of performing when it is most important.
2./3faze/nrg. these are the obvious ones as they went really well in challengers stage 2. they have a lot of potential but at the same time, i dont think even of they won, they would make a big international showing.
- 100 thieves. they are a very strong side and the players didnt have much experience last stage. i have a strange feeling that they will come back and be ready to perform internationally.
5/6. shopify rebellion/ sentinels (lmao) with SR, they have been a strong team for a long time now and i think eventually, they will have to come up and now might be the time. with sentinels, i know it sounds dumb but with their new roster, i think it will force all of the players to play extra hard and with the bootcamp, it will really force every to step up. especially shahz as an igl. i don't think they will win but i do believe that they will do well.
7.-however many others. ig these teams just won't go well in my books. cloud9 imo just won't be in for for a while and i can't see them stepping up any time soon. evil geniuses, are good but i dont thik they will be good enough for the other teams and whoever i missed are the same.
lmk what you guys think, whether you agree or disagree.
