Predictions
In terms of predictions, there’s a lot to discuss.
In the history of the continent, Brazilian teams have always risen to the top compared to the other countries.
Considering this, let’s look at the Brasileirao 2022 Stage 1 standings from March:
- #1 – w7m esports
- #2 – Team Liquid
- #3 – Team oNe eSports
- #4 – FURIA Esports
The main surprise here is the rise of w7m esports. Considering this, we’d like to favour them to win the event at this point in time.
However, it’s important to note that winning here isn’t about placing first place – but making it to the Six Major with the available four seeds for the top teams.
Otherwise, we cannot wait to see how the event goes down. Despite being online and with a smaller prize pool, there’s a tonne on the line for these teams. Accordingly, this is one of many regional competitions taking place ahead of the international Major.
