I think this is looking to be an entertaining match to watch! I think both teams had players who played well in their respective matches, and it will definitely be interesting to see who can keep up the good form and who cannot. Of course, I acknowledge the fact that both NIP and DRG have just came out of 0-2 losses against ASE and RA, but I still think these teams have more to show us. Although I do believe this will be a close match, perhaps a 2-1 win for one of the teams, if I had to pick one of the two I think I'd go with NIP. The fact that Spring and JayH can perform consistently imo will definitely give them an upperhand in this series, and we've seen how DRG can crack and crumble easily against a team with high momentum abusing abilities, and although I don't think NIP is on RA's level in terms of that specific aspect, I think we've definitely seen some amount of snowballing ability from them on maps like Ascent and Bind. As for DRG, I hope vo0kashu continues to impress, and if TvirusLuke gets into it then he too can perform at very high levels, which is very cool!

Overall, I think this will be a tough match for both teams but I think NIP will win 2-1 against DRG this time around.

I mean, there are many factors but Valorant do be like that sometimes.

It's hard to predict the future, and I think that is part of why I do this. It's exciting, to see your prediction turn out correct, but at the same time, somewhat disheartening when you get it wrong. It's like playing Valorant itself without actually playing. You never know what happens!

Absolutely. I think they stand a chance if they perform just as well in their next match.

With all due respect, I disagree with both of your claims.

This was not one of my worst takes of all time.
The path of reasoning I was following when it came to making this DRG-NIP prediction was: DRG new roster, looked bad against ASE and RA, looked quite shaky against 4AM (team they should be beating without issue). NIP looked good against NWG, and although lost to ASE they had many redeemable moments. Therefore, NIP win. I thought it was a pretty good take, in fact. DRG simply outperformed my expectations and that happens often in esports, especially one like Valorant.

If you're interested by any chance, here are what I think are my worst takes of all time:
https://www.vlr.gg/274413/trace-esports-vs-rare-atom-china-evolution-series-act-1-variation-lr3
https://www.vlr.gg/279105/attacking-soul-esports-vs-trace-esports-china-evolution-series-act-2-selection-ubsf
https://www.vlr.gg/279107/trace-esports-vs-edward-gaming-china-evolution-series-act-2-selection-uf
https://www.vlr.gg/285025/top-esports-vs-titan-esports-club-china-evolution-series-act-3-heritability-lr2

I don't think my conversations with Fayde had anything to do with my decision. Sure, it's both flattering and pleasant to speak to someone like the NIP coach, but I can hardly imagine myself predicting DRG to win had I not spoken to him.
It just doesn't make sense to me how speaking to him would affect my decision making at all in this series.

I do appreciate your comment though! I'm always glad to converse on this platform.
