I don't know if this is a coincidence but the last time KRU made a deep run, they lost to an EMEA team, beat a BR team and an NA team in a lower bracket match.
They lost to an EMEA team.(Liquid in Champs, Guild here)
They beat a Brazilian team ( Furia in Champs, Loud here)
They meet an NA team in the lower bracket elimination ( Sentinels in Champs, Optic here)
Are KRU making a deep run this time too?
