why do people try and predict map bans and picks LOL

NRG wins 2-1

C9 2-0

MIBR just doesn't look good versus a C9 that dropped 13 rounds against SEN, who beat MIBR 2-0. jakee continues his hot streak and 1 singular leaf does what he wants and still drops 40

this aged poorly

it takes a man to admit when you're wrong

WP 100T

2-1 either way, leaning C9 but it's 60/40 IMO.

c9 has 1 singular leaf who can pop off at really any point, evidenced by yesterday, and FURIA really didn't look good against EG. mwzera played very well and EG could've taken that series if not for his performance. against a tougher NA team like C9, FURIA could run into trouble by means of C9's unpredictability and willingness to subvert expectations

LOUD 2-0 EG
i don't see EG taking more than 7 rounds on each map

2-0 LEV
given recent performances out of nzr and taco i gotta give the edge to LEV. they've also just been far more consistent. maybe a 2-1 LEV if cryo performs better but otherwise i don't think this'll be particularly close

C9 2-1 100T
completely dependent if curry can play as well as he did against NRG, also assuming asuna comes back to earth a bit

C9W make a statement and take it 2-1
