KOI beats NRG (old optic started slow on the first days)
FPX beats KCorp
EG beat Heretics (not too confident on it)
EDG upset 100t (I feel like this will be the big upset of the tournament)
What are yours?
Ngl it's not totally out of the realm of possibility
100T often struggles against aggressive players, I've seen it several times throughout LCQ and challengers last year. It's because they themselves play a very slow, disciplined and coordinated style, and therefore they sometimes don't expect these aggressive plays.
But given they have >1 month to come up with counters, I think 100T are pretty safe here
As an NRG fan I’m scared shitless for their notorious slow starts. This format is horrible for them but I hope that the 1.5 months of practice address that problem. Koi is no team to take lightly because the firepower they have is insane.
EG I can 100% see beating Heretics. Heretics is not that impressive. EG is not that impressive but I believe in Potter and her tactics with the underrated power of Bcj Ethan Jawgemo and Demon1.
Fpx I don’t really see beating Kcorp because of the pure firepower of the team. Scream and Nivera r a scary duo in the server. They may not have the better tactics but imo Kcorp can take it.
I think 100T look dominant and good af with cryo rn. I don’t see them loosing unless EDG play’s absolutely out of their minds
GIANTS beats NRG
EG shuts everyone up and eliminates TH being totally superior, and soon after it loses to MIBR
LEV beats NAVI at the semifinals of omega group
FURIA beats T1, FNC and 100T and goes to the semifinals
RRQ and FUT are eliminated even though one of them has to win (this would not be surprising)
