On paper this group has to be the second weakest if you only look at Tokyo results so it makes sense why the group ended up like that
Honestly it's hard to believe NAVI will (I'm surely hoping for it, but it's still hard).
We said this copium for Tokyo, and honestly they didn't even play bad, they were in a tough group.
BUT, again... They only qualified bc of fnatic.
I know it doesn't matter much, but I feel like they should've had a strong showing against giants... Losing to giants 3-0 is not promising.
This group is just a wildcard.
I wouldn't be surprised if any of these teams won Champs:
If loud Win no one is surprised
If Navi Win would be unexpected but theres a chance if they have finally figured out how to use zyppan and Cned
If DRX Win it would be unexpected but people have been saying they have an outside chance for ages
If Liquid Win no one would really think it but they are the only team to beat FNATIC this year so in all honestly could happen if they can do this
Also i wouldn't be surprised if any of these teams flopped as they have all done it in the past
Loud - Copenhagen 2022 - Tokyo 2023
Navi - Tokyo 2023
DRX - Champions 2022 - Tokyo 2023 to an extent
Liquid - Lock in
Honestly i think anyones Pick em for this group has a chance of happening due to past results but i personally think it will be
1st - Loud
2nd - DRX
3rd - Liquid
4th - Navi
