T1 winning #T1fighting
Assuming 12 teams:
OpTic, Guard, C9, XSET guaranteed
Pure guesswork:
V1, LG, ???
SEN fell off but it would be strange for them not to make top 12. V1 and LG seem consistent enough to qualify. PKS came out of nowhere, so I doubt their longevity. NRG, EG, 100T may repeat but seem like flukes. Rise disbanded. The bottom 5-6 spots are up in the air, which is … good for the scene … I guess? We could see the likes of FaZe, Andbox, compLexity, or even TSM (lol) qualify.
Other fringe teams like Akrew, Ghost, Soniqs, KCP, BBG, and RNG have gone through a bunch of roster turnover or disbanded completely.
