#1

alecksdesk

THIS IS THE OFFICAL THREAD FOR CHAMPS 2023**

THE REGION WITH THE MOST CORRECT HOT TAKES WOULD BE CROWNED AS THE UNDISPUTED BETTER VLR.GG REGION

SOME RULES:
no cold takes, example of a cold take: fnc will win/lose, fnc/prx final... instead go have fun, predict crazy shit to happen, mention scores/storylines, crazy comps that ppl will run, underdog runs..
takes that been said before won't be counted

MOST IMPORTANT THING: HAVE FUN WITH IT

LETS HEAR UR HOT TAKES AND LETS SEE HOW WRONG/RIGHT WE BEEN AFTER CHAMPS

nah that was the group of death, nobody expected prx to lose as they were top 2 last tourney but still it was way more expected than this time with eg being on a group full of teams they are supposed to beat

prx field benkai in the grand finals instead of something. he plays reyna on all the maps and drops 150 across the 4 map series and prx win. cgrs and something stand up from the crowd. benkai then says to them "get benkaid on" and its finally revealed to us that benkai is the ceo of prx. haters say im trolling 🗣️🔥🔥🔥

MINE ARE:
t1 make a run, ending in 4th place. carpe would be talked as one of the best initiators in the game after this champs.
fnatic flop in playoff, ending up somewhere between 6-8, losing to EDG and LOUD
kangkang awp masterclass bringing EDG into 3rd place and dominating over LOUD and FNATIC, will have the top 3 stats in the tournement
zeta will win one game over NRG/FNC in groups but will lose the rest
NRG 2nd, ardiis to have really bad whiff in a 1v2 situation

Well which is it make up your mind, it isn't lukewarm, liquid is probably favourite in group d and fut has a good chance in their group against t1. If this was a 90 50 10 I'd put no-one EMEA getting out of groups other than fnatic a 10
