GROUP A

EDG is crazy good but i think they will fumble their first game, similar to how they did to T1 in Tokyo. I think Giants will actually take the first Game against EDG. But EDG will qualify through lower bracket ultimately ending in Giants Run. Which is pretty sad for Giants (i really wanted them to succeed) but they really landed in the group of death, RIP. PRX will 2-0.

PRX 2-0 KRU. Giants 2-1 EDG. PRX 2-0 Giants. KRU 0-2 EDG. Giants 0-2 EDG. PRX EDG QUALIFY

GROUP B

I dont know much about CN Valorant but i dont have any hope for FPX. EG will make it out 100%. I am really leaning towards to FUT this time, im confident in them having improved.

EG 2-0 FPX. FUT 2-1 T1. EG 2-1 FUT. FPX 1-2 T1. FUT 2-1 T1.

GROUP C

FNATIC. Need i say more? Other than that its probably NRG. There could be another Cindarella ZETA run, but i dont want to glaze the past but live in the present. Also BLG is quite unrealistic unless whzy plays better than prime SEN TENZ.

FNATIC 26-0 ZETA. NRG 2-0 BLG. FNATIC 2-1 NRG. ZETA 2-1 BLG. NRG 2-0 ZETA.

GROUP D

Liquid vs NaVi is a wonderful game to start out. But don't let NaVis prior performance fool you. I'm pretty sure theyre coming HOT AF into this tournament. TLDR: Liquid and NaVi will both qualify. And no im not underestimating LOUD because of recency bias, im just EU bias kek

Liquid 2-1 NaVi. DRX 0-2 LOUD. Liquid 2-1 LOUD. NaVi 2-0 DRX. NaVi 2-1 LOUD.

TOURNAMENT WINNER: FNATIC
RUNNER UP: PRX
3RD: EDG
4TH: NaVi

allat break it down to 7 words

Navi have been saving strats since Lock In, suygetsu yoru cned cypher incoming

allat just to have a bad prediction

Navi 4th?!?!?!?!?

Just wait and watch bilibili expose NRG and FraudNS

Group A based take, EDG will actually wake up late in the tourna

if the fnatic 26-0 zeta was unintentional thatd be so funny lmao

seemed reasonable until I saw navi qualify, navi is never beating loud lil bro

Wait and see, zeta will 2-1 fnc with Laz chamber mvp

respectable except for that 4th place pick

Group A : i think we are overthinking....PRX and EDG (hopium) should be heavy favourites.
Group B : i can see fpx taking a map off EG (solely based on mechanics and whacky ass comps); i believe t1 will improve more bcoz i m from pacific lmao (zeta still better than t1)
group C : ez for FNC, ngl i can see zeta beating nrg if nrg plays like tokyo. If nrg are back to form, no chance for zeta (RIP BLG)
group D: loud might not qualify due to all these internal issues, DRX wins 1st match, and then beats TL in close fashion....TL qualifies through lowers (NAVI has very less time to prep)
