9th-10th: INGAMING Esports, Team Vikings

doing it mine right now king

Havan is a department store and the founder of Liberty esports team is the son of the owner of Havan, I'm not sure what cause the name change but if I have to guess is probably the owner and the Havan brand often be related to the current government of Brazil which made many people hate them, right now Havan still a sponsor for that team

cashew soda

Because unfortunately according to Riot Br, the spots are for the orgs not the players

maybe Iceland again?

for someone who have no clue about the NA scene I will say Xset, Geng, NRG and TSM

They go against each other again and this time so early

Russia?

yes, that's no a problem

I think this might be the best match of the quarterfinals, hopefully is a good one

B4 weren't 5-man stacked from ranked, the core of that team made playoffs in stage 3

I think this will give them an edge in the closed qualifier, but not in the group stage because teams in the group stage will have more time to fix mistakes

We already know: https://www.vlr.gg/60892/vct-br-2022-lineups

xand - jonn - cauanzin - bnj - bezn

Sacy got covid, that's why they didn't the announcement video yet

this game will be streamed by the coach of Royal PS: https://www.twitch.tv/royalpsusp

nonamer team

Unfortunately no news about it so probably no English stream, but technically people can register to co-stream the qualifiers(open qualifiers + closed qualifiers)

It's hard to do because of the roster changes but I think is something like those:

Bind -Old Vikings, Old Gamelanders
Breeze - Vivo Keyd, Furia
Icebox - Old Gamelanders, Vivo Keyd
Split - NO ORG(now TBK), Vivo Keyd, Old Stars Horizon
Haven - Furia, Sharks
Ascent - Furia, Old Stars Horizon

gtn doesn't play for them tho

Man I just realized the qualifier begins in 9 days and the open qualifier + closed qualifier will be just 4 days( January 12th -16th). I don't think we will see the teams in their full potential yet so here are my predictions for the first qualifier:

Loud and Oddik(Maybe Los Grandes) will qualify for the Closed Qualifier imo, loud has too much firepower and they also have smart players, Oddik have fra and sutecas experience, los grandes have the portuguesa core + ctc so they might surprise.

In the Closed Qualifier I think Loud and Nip will qualify for groups - Xand and Jonn are probably top 10 aimers of the country + bezn and bnj experience might be enough, I can see both these teams not qualifying in the first qualifier tho.

so are guys prediction for the first qualifier?

Delevigne got signed, Stars Horizon might come alive after all, btw I'm surprised that zakkv and tisora haven't been signed with a new team yet

Maybe Light? He played a little bit of Sentinel in Sharks

yes, btw I have a question for americans, where are the best burgers? fast food chains or random burger places?

Duelist - Cned
Flex - Chronicle(yep)
Initiator - Sacy
Controller - Mako
Sentinel - nAts

I'm not worried about Less I'm sure he will do fine, what I'm worried about is if Saadhak will be able to flex

yes, chase was the only player who used Kay/o well here in stage 3, he's 16 yo, fuzari has a good cypher but he's inconsistent, I think pancada and dgzin are the most valuable players from this lineup

off course

Open Qualifier 1 -> 256 teams -> 2 best teams qualify for groups( all matches are BO3)

Open Qualifier 2 -> 256 teams -> 2 best teams qualify for groups( all matches are BO3)

Groups Phase -> 10 teams -> 4 teams from open qualifiers + 6 invited teams(Vivo Keyd, Vikings, Furia, Havan Liberty, Sharks and Gamelanders) - > 2 groups of 5 teams, round robin (all matches are BO3) -> 6 teams qualify for playoffs(The best 3 from each group)

Playoffs -> 6 teams, Double Elimination, top 2 qualify for Masters 1(matches for the spots and GF are BO5)

So are you guys thoughts about the format?

We lost two times against them

They will comeback better next year, trust

Some non emea/na team vs some emea/na team
like Vision Strikers vs Team Liquid

"mom can I sleep with you?"

"I'm afraid of the of the mirudos in Berlim(mib)"

mirudo means someone with really good aim

The boys did well, I had not any faith in them coming to this match because the lack of international experience but they proved me wrong, this group is gonna be interesting

??? if team secret win, vikings may lose to them and will have to face gambit in the lower bracket which is a way more scary

as much I would like to Furia to win, I think Sentinels will destroy Furia

I would say 4 of the furia players(xand, nzr, khalil and qck) can pop off and top frag in games so yeah he's good, he used to play smokes before lcq

In my eyes VS is the favorite to get out of that group, but I think people shouldn't count Fnatic or Full Sense out

c9 lose to fnatic

Iceland and Japan

where did you get info about Furia?

Not even in my wildest dreams I see Furia beating Sentinels in the first game, but I think the only way for Furia get out of the group is facing Sentinels again in lowers

saving this comment for next year

Vivo Keyd:

1.Heat
2.mwzera
3.murizzz
4.vixxen
5.jhow

Vikings:

1. Sacy
2. saadhak
3. frz
4. sutecas
5. gtn

Furia (controversial):

1. nzr
2. khalil
3. xand
4. qck
5. mazin

yes, He watched a couple of NA games

Buzz and Jonh Olsen should be higher, btw where is keznit?

Brazilian Teams and Full Sense

just change xand for nzr

1- People will say Crazy Raccoon will win easy but it's anybody's game
2- I'm on the Full Sense hype train
3- Kru, Furia don't have experience on the international stage (obviously I will root for them)
