Group B predictions

#1

ozaee

i got SEN and FPX coming out of Group B

FPX already almost beat TH but wo0t had the game of his life and they almost beat GENG so I think they 2-0 in the groups
SEN already beat TH and GENG in Madrid so I think they lose to GENG and go down to lowers and I got them beating TH and GENG

yeah definitely, plus this group is by far the hardest to predict
imo it the best team from each region and was also 100% rigged lmao

To me, it's just that SEN has clearly played well in the past, and FPX actually performed well against both TH/GENG in Shanghai.

I'm going with the two favorites(I think they're the favorites?) in Gen.G and TH.

Gen.G is making it in 99% of the time. Unless something crazy happens, I see them beating all three teams. (maybe not SEN, but Gen.G have been playing great and beat SEN in the normal B03 match.)

I have FPX winning round one but TH through the LB. FPX almost beat TH last time, and are going to be hungry to show they can play at the top level. But TH is better overall(imo) and I think they bounce back quickly. I think SEN isn't going to go down without a fight, but I just don't see them beating either TH or Gen.G in their current form.

Here's the rest of it for anyone interested:

I think primmie is gonna cook for this talon squad

talon is imo the biggest dark horse into this event ESPECIALLY with primmie.

i think they're gonna go pretty deep and finish 5/6.

they either bomb out or do really well

i hope they do really well though, primmie is fun to watch

I have no idea what to expect from Talon, but at the same time, I feel like primmie might get let down by the rest of the team.

this is exactly why I see talon as such a big dark horse

unless you watched APAC, the only reason you even know talon is primmie, you don't know the rest of the team

but I watched them a decent amount and feel they are pretty solid and fr0st is a good coach. Throw in a star duelist and I think they can really cook

They definitely have potential but jitboys and ban need to step up. If those two can play consistently well, alongside primmie, they can do some damage.

geng has beaten sen in a bo3 and would’ve beat them again if grand finals was somehow a bo3 aswell considering they were up 2-1

mines pretty tame except for maybe PRX not making it out of group stage
G2 should easily beat PRX, they are just to slow and methodical for PRX to try and beat unless PRX pulls out some crazy stats
and i think EDG are due for a win at some point

that link just shows whoever clicks on it their own pickems

to show your own, you need to use the provided link, which will have random letters and numbers behind it.

E.g, mine are https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/032b2f2e

I highly doubt EDG beats PRX.

The one time PRX lost was Madrid, but at the time Monyet wasn't playing great and alecks himself mentioned that they had a TON of issues to fix

PRX and EDG both play a very aggressive style but PRX is more used to it and are the better team overall imo

maybe KK pulls out something crazy, but I doubt it past that

yeah like i said it is mainly because I think EDG are due for a win, they have been struggling this year

#26

true, they might really lock in and make something happen

but I still don't see them beating PRX unless KK pulls something out his ass and/or the rest of his team plays amazing

even when PRX shit the bed in Shanghai we still beat EDG.

when predicting pickems' you have to also account for the unexpected, you will never be correct if you go with the safe answer and that is why i went with edg

but i do agree prx most likely will win

there is a 0% chance GENG dont make it out of this group
there is a 0% chance SEN make it out of this group
as for TH and FPX, its kind of a coin flip, even though TH is better than them

0% chance SEN make it out is crazy

every team in this group has the potential to make it out

SEN beat TH without wo0t so how can you guarantee that they'll beat them again? especially with sen obviously not being in their madrid form

sen barely got the champs and wont take it for granted, i think they probably have the some of the best work ethics and scrim constantly
i also do think they are in madrid form but they were also having some personal problems during last 2 games of americas
sen also has more experience when it comes to champs, the stakes are fair higher than any other tournament, i wouldn't be suprised if some of team heretics struggle under the pressure
