Sentinels vs Karmine Corp at VCT 2024 Masters Madrid: Who will win the first match of Swiss Stage Round 2?

Prediction

After a disappointing run at VCT 2023, fans had low expectations from Karmine Corp. However, with Martin "MAGNUM" Penkov leading them, the French squad has had a shocking run this season.

In VCT 2024, they have only lost one series—against Team Heretics. KC has taken down EMEA giants such as FUT Esports and Fnatic in decisive wins. At the end of Swiss Round 1 at Masters Madrid, KC is the only team to have not dropped a single map.

North America's most popular team, Sentinels, has made a surprising comeback in 2024 after several alterations to its squad. VCT 2024 Masters Madrid is the organization's first international tournament since Champions 2021.

Tyson "TenZ" Ngo's performance as a Controller has been impressive, to say the least. Even after shifting away from the role of the team's star Duelist, he has had an immense impact and could be a tipping factor in today's Sentinels vs Karmine Corp matchup.

If TenZ comes online early, the series will likely go the way of the NA squad. Otherwise, KC has a higher chance of running away with today's match.
