The VCT Americas League is almost halfway through, as teams from NA, Brazil, and LATAM have been fighting in the Regular Season to stay at the top of the table. The top six make it to the Playoffs, which is where these teams will get a chance to compete for a slot at Masters Tokyo. Week 4 Day 5 has a couple of matches lined up, one between NRG Esports and KRÜ Esports.
Week 4 Day 4 of the Americas League had two matchups that went the distance. The first was between 100 Thieves and Leviatán. The former won the BO3 (Best of Three) series by 2-1 to put themselves in a good spot in the table.
Trending
The second matchup was between LOUD and Evil Geniuses. The former was heavily favored in this matchup, but the latter won the first map in a dominant fashion.
However, LOUD went on to win the next two maps and won the series 2-1.
NRG Esports vs KRÜ Esports - Who will be victorious in this matchup at the VCT Americas League?
Predictions
NRG Esports had a great showing at VCT LOCK//IN as the team won two series and pushed LOUD to their absolute limit. However, the Americas League has been a different story. NRG has won only one out of their three matches so far.
KRÜ Esports has had a tough time in 2023. The team had an underwhelming performance at LOCK//IN and has also continued that in the Americas League. KRÜ has not won a single series so far.
This matchup favors NRG Esports as they have looked significantly better than KRÜ. NRG has won one match so far, whereas KRÜ has won none.
