FaZe Clan Prediction - Luminosity Gaming

The second match of the lower bracket of the Valorant Champions Tour 2022 North America Stage 2 tournament will be held between Luminosity Gaming and FaZe Clan, members of group B. Before the start of the tournament, they met each other 4 times, FaZe Clan won in total with a score of 3-1. Now their rivals have a chance to rehabilitate themselves, the format of matches is bo3.

The team performed well in the group stage, ending it with a score of 3-2 and quietly advancing to the quarter-finals of the upper bracket. But then on their way they met 100 Thieves who, after a tense game lasting 3 maps, threw the "Phazes" into the losers' bracket with a score of 1-2. Now the roster must pass future rivals in order to meet the loser in the semi-finals of the winner's bracket later.

FaZe Clan roster

• babybay
• dicey
• flyuh
• supamen
• poised

After the first defeat at the beginning of the tournament, the club chose flyuh as the captain, who performed well in the group stage and led the team to the playoffs.

Result of the last 5 matches

• Defeated Sentinels 2-0
• Defeated Cloud9 2-0
• Victory over Evil Geniuses 2-0
• Lost to Luminosity Gaming 0-2
• Lost by 100 Thieves 1-2

The team showed excellent results in the group, in most cases closing the matches with a clean sheet, but then the eighth team of the North American rating stopped their progress. For both sides, it was a fundamental meeting, because out of the last three FaZe Clan won 2, but this time the 100 Thieves club managed to take the victory and the total score is now 2-2.

Having confidently started its performance in the tournament with two victories, the club gradually suspended its progress. In the end, having finished the group stage 3-2 in fourth place in the ranking, the team barely made it to the playoffs, getting into the lower bracket where they will fight for a pass against FaZe Clan.

Luminosity Gaming roster

• moose
• dazzLe
• TiGG
• Mada
• bdog

Earlier I wrote about the transition to the team mada and bdog before the start of the tournament, which replaced the departed YaBoiDre and aproto. In general, new players show themselves well during their time in the roster, given the lack of experience in tournaments of this level.

Results of the last 5 matches

• Lost to OpTic Gaming 0-2
• Lost to Evil Geniuses 0-2
• Defeated Cloud9 2-0
• Victory over FaZe Clan 2-0
• Defeated Sentinels 2-1

It is always interesting to watch the playoff matches of the stage, because even a team that performs well in the group, after a single defeat, may be on the verge of relegation. This is exactly what happened to Luminosity Gaming, and to be honest, I think that they will be able to improve their situation and this match will not be their last.

Match prediction

During the group stage, both teams showed a confident average game, even though some of them got into the playoffs in the lower bracket, and others in the vinner, but in general they are more or less equal. But in my humble opinion, Luminosity Gaming will be able to go further, and in the ranking of North American teams they are 4 positions higher.

The result is the victory of Luminosity Gaming.
