G2, GenG, EDG, KC
FNC, BLG, NRG, DRX
RRQ, SEN, BBL, TEC
XLG, TH, PRX, 100T
true, they havent played on LAN yet. but I also think that it wont be too much different other than the fact that the rookies might get stage fright or just get nervous when playing on stage.
100T is different tho, they almost beat G2 in stage 1 which could show that they are returning to their original form from 2024
not really. NRG, 100T, and DRX are all very good teams. DRX now has some experience in international, and they are probably more used to playing with the 3 new rookies. NRG look like a top 3 Americas team right behind G2 and SEN with the new pickup of skuba and Ethan on IGL. And 100T shit stomped MIBR with cryo and Asuna looking like they are in peak form rn.
all this doesnt matter since its only between who wins group stage 1 anyways.
