No way Loud can win the Opening Event

Think about it, it will be a championship with at least 25 new ELITE teams that absolutely NOBODY has any information about map pool or playstyle, meanwhile Loud will keep the same team and basically everyone will have a whole year of content about them + the fact that a championship with 30 teams is practically impossible for all games to be md3/md5 and have a double elimination system.
They will need to be VERY good to get it and the problem is that even if they go through the entry phase (probably a group) they won't have any information about the teams they would face in the playoffs, basically they just need to be superior and adapt a lot DURING the matches and their strong point is the anti-tactical previously made by bzka.
On the other hand, all teams will know exactly what they are going to do next and create anti-tactics for them, the closer to the final they get the more likely that the team that is against them has already studied absolutely everything about them + good aim + surprising effect.
And we are at least 4 months away from this championship which means that the teams will have a lot of time to study and the meta will have COMPLETELY changed by then, we will probably have a new agent in the championship and a completely different rhythm of play.

No chance of them being able to win now

loud will also have the extra time to create new ideas.

Actually if anything they will be a team that will have a head start since they won't have to go through the whole new roster thing.

If anything, they should be the absolute hard favorite for this event. LOUD and DRX will definitely be the best teams.

It's not jinx, the teams that give Brazil the most trouble (apart from optic) were the teams that had a chaotic style of play, these teams will now have a lot of information against loud while loud doesn't have any information against them, Loud will not be able to prepare anti-tacticians while all the teams (the other 29 teams) will have created anti-tacticians for them, at least ONE of these 29 will have to work and will end up eliminating them.

actually EMEA is plagued with bot teams like KC, Koi, Heretics who were picked over actually great rosters like FPX. But I can't wait to watch neptuno, kiles, shadow and popifresh get 13-0d!

you must be kidding if you don't think franchised team gonna buy out star players ? There's a huge roster shift incoming for every team.

I am betting 500000 dollars that the level of the 10 franchise teams in EMEA is actually gonna be lower than the level of the this year's EMEA VCT top10. Take a bet?

how the fk would you know if they're lower or not? Stop talking out of your ass. This is pretty much how any franchised sports work. You're braindead if you think that players matter, they get shifted and traded all the time.

To be honest, that isn't guaranteed. I think we all want a competitive league, but the franchising reality has already gave us examples of how some teams work, more at #17

You really think LOUD would jump to defend a top 1 itw title on their own country without bootcamping at least 3 weeks before the tournament?

Saadhak told in the press conference that they will not bootcamp before this event.

what's the point of bootcamping if everyone that matter will be here?

Remember that franchising doesn't mean that all teams will be elite. I know there are a lot of good players that will be free agents now, but teams have their spots secured –at least for some time–.

At the end of the day, it's business. Just look how Golden Guardians do in NA or SK /BDS in EU (at LoL)
