Team Liquid vs Cloud9 Blue: Which team will stay in the Valorant Champions 2021?

Team Liquid qualified for the knockout stage of the Valorant Champions 2021 after consecutive wins against KRU Esports and Sentinels in the group stage.

Meanwhile, Cloud9 Blue has pulled itself up after a shaky start to the campaign. The North American side has won back-to-back games against Full Sense and Vision Strikers after losing against Fnatic in their opening tie of the Valorant Champions 2021.

Prediction

Both sides have equal chances of winning the tie tonight. However, their previous experience of LAN events will help TL in such a high-pressure match.

Team Liquid has some exciting players like Adil "ScreaM" Benrlitom, Nabil "Nivera" Benrlitom, and Travis "L1NK" Mendoza, who have the potential to decide the outcome of games single-handedly.

However, no one can write off Cloud9 Blue in today's tie. After struggling in the initial stages of the tournament, they have found their rhythm. With stars like Nathan "leaf" Orf and Anthony "vanity" Malaspina in the team, C9 Blue can turn the tie.
