Team Liquid (ive believed in them since bangkok, and also they got unlucky at toronto and would have beat BLG with nats)

Xi Lai Gaming (look very promising and actually have a full roster with NoMan, also in a weaker China region)

Sentinels (hear me out this is a true dark horse and yall will prob cook me up for this, but SEN actually look good. Sure their opponents havent been great so far and their group is pretty easy, but they actually look nice right now. i guess well have to see how they do in playoffs tho)

EDIT: I FORGOT MY GOATS AT FPX, and also this is like a dark horse list!

i think everyone in apac is already strong and favored thats why i didnt mention them (geng, prx) are my top 2 apac

same goes for teams like FNC who are already favored my fault for not specifying

LEV branding looks super nice bro, the dragon, the blue, and the jerseys are firee

Ur a legend 🙏

Wolves have to pray that 2 out of 3 teams from XLG, BLG, and EDG make top 2 in stage 2 playoffs to qualify through champs points. But to be honest China is really unpredicted and so many teams are so close that’s a really hard task

Sayf on duelist was insane man, him and trexx still have broken backs from that 2024 Stage 2 Run

GenG been choking this year too bro, lost a 10-5 lead to FNC in Toronto, 11-4 to G2 in Toronto, 11-6 lead to Wolves, they just cant close out a game. Even in EWC they lost a game they should have won to Heretics
