- Ninjas in Pyjamas
- Team Liquid
- MIBR
- TSM
- FaZe Clan (5-6th)
- TSM (5-6th)
Indeed, although it’s been a few months, there’s one thing to watch out for. Specifically, the community is curious as to whether the South American region can continue to maintain its dominance from the last event.
Otherwise, the likes of Team Liquid and Ninjas in Pyjamas remain favourites. However, perhaps roster changes and team changes since then can help the other regions take a stance.
