Maybe, but DRX > KRU and Xerxia

I think 100T are better than XSET but 100T have to beat DRX and XSET have to beat KRU/xerxia

I think XSET is underrated

PRX 2-0

OPTC 2-0

We all know who wins
It's W gaming time

Ehhh loud getting grouped is a little to hot for me, at least not by Zeta. Remember Zeta has a sub and is the 15th best team there

You can't talk until your region makes it out of groups, also not a hot take just a dumb one, 'downvote me pussies' isn't a defense

A

Dumb/Hot take: BCJ talks so make shit he turns into shit and opponents ff because of smell XSET makes it out of groups

Sizzling Take: FPX 5-8th place

1. GE

2. ORD (understandably

3. SEN

4. BBL

5. EDG

EDG is overrated. wont make it out of groups

FNC 2 - 1 100T

I think it was a fluke run. FPX didn't look like champions domesticly. Ange1 seems clueless. Also winners curse + you have to understand when you make predictions you need to add a level of intuition to your predictions, here my intuition is saying FPX is a fluke and 100T will do pretty good

ATM this move obv makes no sense, but if faze for some reason don't make franching/ sell dicey it makes some to acquire dicey

DRX is better, but their mental is so shit, LEV is not better from what I have seen

I think if that group happens at champs - optic + 100T - guild + TL 100T go 2-1

Same tier as TL and optic, loud went 0-2, DRX best performance is 5-6th Leviatan is 1-2 international, and XSET is shit trust me that one will speak for itself

Average Sen fan
Also I'm not even a 100T fan

LEV: had a decent international showing, decent team, fairly unproven IMO low upset potential
Zeta: only team to skip LCQ and Copenhagen had honeymoon run, may surprise, odds are will get grouped missing TENN I believe
XSET: 0-1 in internationals probably going to find a way to lose to optic and then 100T and be out I just don't see this team doing anything
Xerxia: I have no reason to believe in this team
Boom: showed a nice LCQ, I may be being a little harsh here very unproven tho
Furia: this team doesn't deserve to be here should have lost to KRU and not qualified why does SA have 4 spots give it to m3c

Reasoning for all picks
PRX: second at Copenhagen don't really need to explain
FNC: looked great domesticly, feel like if Derke and alfa can start hitting will be S tier, think they have more to show+ boaster twerk bonus
FPX: Haven't lost on LAN, won Copenhagen, just have a feeling it was a fluke + winners curse
Optic: won iceland, got third at Copenhagen, 2nd at Berlin, FNS is insane just very consistent.
TL: this guy named ScreaM
100T: won last ten maps dominantly and against double map ban
Loud: top of B, second at Iceland, weren't like super impressive at Iceland, but also didn't do that bad at Copenhagen with what they had, massively talented
DRX: PRX's kryptonite, overall very solid, weak mental
KRU: all around decent, doesn't need too much explanation
EDG: might win, might get grouped, idk man
1/2

I think FPX lose to loud, good mental DRX, maybe EDG, and stand a higher chance of being upset overall. Also I think FPX will lose to FNC and TL so they gain advantage there

Because they won their last ten maps in a row with closest being 13-10 and most being like 13-6 lmao

I think in a matchup FPX would win, but optic will beat any team not from EMEA or PRX and I don't think that's true for FPX

In my defense, 100T we're in immaculate form to end LCQ, they were looking better than optic. And I just think FPX's run was a bit of a fluke

(based on how I think teams will do not really past performance)
S: FNC, PRX
A: FPX, 100T, TL, optic
B:LOUD, DRX, KRU, EDG
C:LEV, Zeta
D:XSET
F: Furia, Xerxia, Boom
(Edit:I'm moving optic to A tier since they just aren't on the same level as PRX or FNC)

Win prob: 30% 100T, 20% NRG, 20% FaZe, 10% EG, 10% chance Sen, 5% chance c9, 5% chance SR, 0% chance Guard https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/36670cec

I got ninth in NA at Copenhagen so I'm feelin confident https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/36670cec , although I do bad when my favorite teams are involved

100T 2-0 NRG

NA= 100T if they decide to play chamber
EMEA= TL
APAC= TS
SA= KRU
EA=MARU

optic 2-0 loud

optic 2-0 kru

guild 2-0 loud

they didn't destroy, they broke EG

NRG returns to form win 2-0

Asuna supremacy

Def gonna be 2-1 if tsm wins, I give tsm 55 chance to win

2-1 guard win
