7/16

When they were in berlin they were at top form and a contender for the best team in the world and then they fell very short at champion.
Though their current form now is tbh a pretty much watered down version of their berlin form. They look decent but not that good imo. They need to regain their berlin form if they want to compete internationally

EMEA is better but top NA teams could prob take a map off

On paper the Guard wins as they have better chemistry, strats, and just overall synergy

But Sentinels has a lot more experience then the Guard and the mechanical factor is also in Sentinel favour

So pretty much experience vs teamwork

League of legend

C9 lose 3-0 but make it out of group in the group of death and were the most unlikeliest to make it out of group

Valorant

4 EMEA 2SEA 1NA 1LATAM

C9 loses 2-0 but make it out of group in the group of death and were the more unlikeliest to make it out of group

They will lose but not "no chance"

Sentinel has been 0-5 in first game and 4-0 in second game
This will be the real test for V1

If game goes to map 3 2-1 The guard
If its only 2 games C9 2-0

V1 2-1
V1 wins first map 13-7/13-6
Sentinel win second map 13-10
V1 wins last map 13-5
(It will go to game 3 cause sen always win second map tbh)

NV>ALL of NA

if game goes to game 3 The guard wins as they always destroy on the 3rd map

rise is too inconsistent they will either 2-0 or lose 0-2 and get destroyed either way

If NV regains their Berlin form 2-0, if not, then 2-0 sentinel

The guard has proved themselves as a very strong darkhorse in the qualifers and this just cements how good they are. The question is though if they can beat C9, and if they can, holy shit.

v1 or c9 give or take, the guard could be rly strong dark horses though we'll see tmrw

nrg 2-0

guard 2-0 guard copium

tl 2-0/2-1 13-6 13-8

if nv lose this ill be really sad as I was fine with sentinel losing but nv losing will just rly fuck na

2-1 tl as a na fan since sentinel sucks rn and 13-8 11-13 13-5

3-2 envy vs gambit
