Earth will win every international event despite being a 0 team planet

nrg lose s0m, vibes fall off and the team falls apart by the end of the season. only brawk stays on nrg, ethan retires, mada and skuba go to 100t.

g2 will look like sen this year until leaf gets sick again, they bring in a rookie, then they win champs

santiago winners will either have 4+ rookies or no rookies at all

boaster looks genuinely atrocious in kickoff and stage 1, he will then retire, fnc brings in an aspiring rookie igl, everyone expects them to pop off again, but then they completely fall off and everyone sees how valuable boaster actually was
