FNC vs PRX
FNC are usually hard to predict if they find an anti but considering Sunset is a good ban for them anyway it will likely be Lotus, Ascent, Bind.

NRG vs MIBR
Theres a 90% chance this game will be Corrode, Abyss, Haven.
Usually I would say theres 0 chance NRG force an Ascent and MIBR force a BInd from the lack of footage to anti but theres a good chance they were scrim partners during stage 2 playoffs so maybe there is something

Great pickup I was wondering why they called it that and now it makes so much sense. If that is the case Verno has probably moved past his frustrations with NRG now that Bonkar is back

Both teams are playing the same comp and neither of them has lost with it. What do we think?

Kind of makes sense? Conditioning how focused they are with how loud the game audio is could be a good way to allocate mental energy. But its such a random thing for so many people to pick up... curious if/where it originated from

I remember mooda does this all the time and I thought he was just getting ready for a reaction. But I've also seen pros like johnqt do it and we saw ara today as well. Are they not potentially losing out on post-death information? Cant think of a reason

NRG should be winning the map veto right? If they get first pick, as long as NRG ban Bind instead of Sunset, which is DRX permaban, they'll likely be playing Abyss and Corrode again

Hell yeah brother I'll put on the flair once I figure out how to

Brawk lost the ascension qualifier to the Guard 2 years ago and now they are both heading to champs. It was so frustrating when brawk and mada didn't make ascension last year and now they've skipped it completely and made champs. Having watched t2 longer than t1 its amazing to see it all come together. Sadly ironic that v1c and net had to fall for all this to happen but inshallah they stay in c9 and make a LAN next year

If NRG win against KRU, LEV needs to win against 100T so that nrg gets 1st seed.
If NRG lose against KRU, 100T needs to win against LEV so they don't get 4th seed.
(I think)

Do they still get one champs point per win in playoffs?

I was kinda against this narrative until now. Imagine Wolves win Toronto and we have to watch the very next event knowing the best team wont be playing. If the qualifiers weren't inexplicably in the old patch this wouldn't have been the case
