Predictions
In terms of predictions, let’s take a look at the standings from the Group Stage:
- #1 – OpTic Texas
- #2 – London Royal Ravens
- #3 – Boston Breach
- #4 – Atlanta FaZe
- #5 – New York Subliners
- #6 – Los Angeles Guerrillas
Considering this, the top end of the league is quite clear. However, we can expect a few surprises.
First and foremost, the likes of OpTic Texas are still the favourites following their championship run at Major 1, while Atlanta FaZe are predicted to match up with them once again in the Grand Final.
However, other teams such as Boston Breach, London Royal Ravens and New York Subliners will be doing their best to contest in their own battle for top 5.
Otherwise, the remainder of the league remains as competitive as ever – who knows what could happen?
