heretics has to play at the same level than they did last year (which is difficult, as most teams that do well internationally tend to drop in level the following season)
vitality are destined to fail (too many personalities, a coach that isn't a leader, and no igl. most "super teams" don't work out)
fnatic won't have leo and derke (crashies and kaajak are fine, but derke and leo were capable to win fnatic games in their own. there's still hope in alfa if he switches to duelist)
karmine corp is one of the favorites but really depends on team chemistry and their players having a good day
with the signing of xeus, fut is the only top team in emea that has upgraded significantly from 2024 (unless you believe that vit's "super team" will dominate)
