Predictions

Sentinels are back in top form. Their new roster has been putting up brilliant performances at both OFF//SEASON and the ongoing Kickoff event. The team has an extraordinary amount of talent and is currently one of the strongest in the Americas.

MIBR registered some surprising wins in the Kickoff event. They were considered the weakest side of their group but somehow managed to knock both FURIA and Cloud9 out of the event. While MIBR's matches haven't been the cleanest, they have shown that they can go toe to toe against better teams and come out on top.

This VCT matchup between Sentinels vs MIBR favors the former due to the experience and the talent their roster has. However, MIBR made it out of their group against all odds and are capable of causing another upset.
