Handicap +1.5 (Natus Vincere)
NAVI and Liquid will meet in the first round of the VCT 2021 Playoffs: EMEA Stage 3 Challengers Playoffs. The winner of this match will face Acend in the second round. However, it is already clear to us that Liquid has a colossal advantage over the CIS team, which is expressed in precious experience.
NAVI form
The 40th team in the European rating seems to be a real "dark horse". The thing is that the team was formed exactly before the start of VCT 2021: EMEA Stage 3 Challengers Playoffs, because until that moment NAVI had nothing to do with VALORANT. Nevertheless, we need to talk about the guys from No Pressure, who won the ticket to the championship, losing only to Gambit twice during the qualifiers. However, there is a clear feeling that this team will still show itself, giving battle to favorites from Europe.
