Forutsigelse av kamp: Leviatán Esports - LOUD | VALORANT

Forecast LOUD - Leviatan

The group stage of Valorant Champions 2022 is over, which means that the strongest teams remain. Today we are moving to the playoffs, where in the first match of the upper bracket quarter-finals, there will be a meeting between representatives of Brazil LOUD, and opponents represented by Leviatan from the southern region of Latin America. Previously, the teams did not hold face-to-face meetings, and today they will have to determine the strongest in the bo3 format.

Form LOUD

The team played well in the group stage. Having easily won the first match against the Japanese from ZETA DIVISION on two maps: their strongest Ascent (13-8), and on the weaker Fracture (13-9), LOUD players faced the North American tops from OpTic Gaming, and as a result of three intense maps, could not pull out a victory. Having won their choice Breeze (13-7), the Brazilians with a struggle gave Fracture (10-13), and flew off to Pearl (13-3) without a chance. In the knockout match, LOUD again faced former rivals from ZETA DIVISION, and the result was expected, an easy victory on their Ascent (13-5), and a tense one on Bind (13-11), led the team to the playoffs.

Form Leviatan

The Chilean team finished the group stage as favorites. Not without complications, he won the first match against representatives of Europe - Team Liquid, on his map Haven (13-10), and on the choice of opponents Ascent (13-10). Separately, I would like to note that both maps are on the team's list of the strongest, which means that the victory was given to them with certain difficulties. The second match in the group, the team played against the representatives of the Asia-Pacific region - Paper Rex, and the match was also not easy. Having confirmed their choice of Haven (13-8), the players barely pulled ahead on Bind (13-11), thanks to which they received a place in the playoffs.

Match prediction

For me, the favorites of the match are the Brazilians, although their situation is ambiguous. Having no chance of winning all opponents in their region, when meeting with other teams they start having problems, which is an example of the last Masters Copenhagen, where they flew out after the group stage in 11-12th place. The Chileans have a similar situation, occupying the top 1 in their region, and defeating not very strong opponents from LATAM and Japan, when meeting with representatives of Europe and NA, they are lost. Now the teams are almost equal, but I repeat that the Brazilians are clear favorites for me.

Outcome: LOUD victory
