The club showed excellent results in the group stage, having lost only once against 100 Thieves with a score of 0-2, and firmly fixed on the 1st line in the ranking. After reaching the quarterfinals, the players met with them again, and this time they confidently won on both maps: Icebox (13-10), Ascent (13-4).

Composition XSET

• AYRIN
• Bsj
• dephh
• zekken

The roster has hardly changed since the beginning of the year, the only replacement was Cryocells, who replaced the previously departed PureR, but he also fit perfectly into the team, showing a polished game on Chamber in most matches.

• Defeated The Guard 2-1
• Victory over TSM 2-0
• Defeated 100 Thieves 2-0
• Victory over NRG Esports 2-0
• Lost by 100 Thieves 0-2

You can clearly see why the club occupies a leading position in the group, most of the matches were limited to two maps. The only defeat was against 100 Thieves, for which the team has already rehabilitated by throwing their oppressor into the lower bracket, where they were subsequently eliminated by FaZe Clan.

Like future opponents, the team also showed good results in group matches. Having finished the stage with a total score of 4-1 in the first place in the ranking, the club met Evil Geniuses in the semi-finals, which they easily outplayed on both maps Breeze (13-5), Haven (13-3), and sent them to the loser.

OpTic Gaming Roster

• Marvel

Previously, the entire team played in Team Envy, but at the beginning of the year, the OpTic Gaming organization bought them all, and the players, along with coach Chet, became the new Valorant roster.

Match prediction

It's hard to say who will win in this confrontation, both teams are champions of their groups, just as both teams had easy matches in the playoffs. And in the ranking of North American teams, they share first and second place. Although the bookmakers believe more in the victory of OpTic Gaming, it seems to me that the game will drag on for three maps, with an unknown winner.

Total over 2.5.
