I think it's likely that FNC win the series. Nonetheless, I think that TL (and perhaps NAVI) have the best chance of defeating FNC. FUT are doing well rank-wise right now, but they also lost to TL.

I think either 2-1 (more likely) or 2-0 for 100T. The last few matches have been tough for them (lock-in especially), but I've seen steady improvement in the SEN match. Hopefully 100T is back to form today.
1 - Loud
2 - Furia
3 - Leviatán
4 - NRG
5 - SEN
6 - 100T (not sure)
7 - C9 (not sure)
8 - EG
9 - Mibr
10 - KRU
I think you give MIBR too much credit (too far above KRU when they were really quite close in matchup)
EDIT: I doubt my ranking will change after today's 100T vs EG match unless EG wins (unlikely in my opinion)
had to fix the lev and furia placement. had a brain coma
Interesting way to start the tournament. I suppose 100T 2-1, but not sure how much better SEN have gotten given the time to practice after LOCK//IN. Should be a good match though!
2-1 either way
Honestly, 100T has not looked great the last few matches, but that also tends to be the case at the beginning of every bracket they enter. It seems like they usually get more consistent over the course of a tournament. I'm hoping that is the case here. On the other hand, FNATIC looks crazy consistent, so I'm expecting a close loss for 100T here (though I hope 100T wins).
I'll concede, I was wrong. These FUT players got some real skill
I think this will be an easier match for 100T than EDG. Honestly I don't think FUT will have the same mechanical skills to match, plus newer roster. Nonetheless, hope it's another close match like 100T vs EDG.
You're missing the point. Read the top again. This is their FIRST MATCH together. I don't think that translates at all to the close 100T vs Liquid match during Red Bull

I'm expecting a nice 2-0 or 2-1 in favor of 100T here. Would really like to see a good match though. Hopefully EDG bring something new to the table.
100T proves they can win big! I've been loving this roster since it since April. Great progression from a team with potential to a consistently strong team.
Bang is built different. Mechanically he's top
3-2 or 3-1 either way I'd guess. I think 100T can win (and hope they do), even with C9's great performance, but I do think it's likely that C9 comes out on top. I think it depends on who pops off. Nonetheless, it should be a great match!
While it was frustrating at times with the lack of streams for the 4 lan matches yesterday, I think they stepped their game up today. Gotta give event organizers props for that. It has been a fun tournament. Can't wait for the matches tomorrow.
You're absolutely right. I see a lot of similarity between 100T and Vitality. For both teams, it seems like any one member can pop off when a clutch is needed. I think that one downside for them is that they are where 100T was 6 months ago. They're a newer roster. They need time to figure things out, just like the 100T roster did back in April.
Stellar has only gotten more consistent, I think. Glad they did not toss him after Challengers 2 or earlier. His clutches are not as frequent as someone like Derrek, but they are very valuable when they happen. Also, even with all individual talent on the team, the coaching and igl-ing cannot be discounted. They truly are a better team for it.

Let's go 100T!
Hoping 100T can pull this one out. Would love to see them in the playoffs, but this could go either way. I'm guessing 2-1 either side.
From what I saw, 100T definitely has more to show in the following matches. Bang and Asuna were pretty consistent, but I'm still waiting for Werrek and Stellar to pop off. Will definitely showed up, and hopefully he'll continue perform better on LAN.
I'm thinking 100T 2-0 or 2-1 DRX. Will be a close match on every map though I think.
YEEESSS. GG 100T. I knew they could do it!
I don't post that much, but might as well put this here. I'm definitely trustworthy. Definitely. :)
Go 100T !

This is the "Top Teams Optic and XSET Choke" timeline, with a dash of 100T HOPIUM. Honestly, I don't see it going 100% this way but it's possible given how GHST, EG, 100T, FAZE etc have been doing.
The toss-ups are OPTIC vs GHST and XSET vs FAZE. Could see those matches going either way. We just haven't seen them go head-to-head yet this stage. Might change to XSET win over FAZE, but otherwise I will gamble.
