Current matchup details

Neither team has played against each other before. Fnatic had their last VCT match in VCT EU Stage 3 Challengers 2, where they fell to Team Liquid and couldn’t make it to the playoffs. Fortunately, they qualified for the Champions through the circuit points. However, they have recently played matches against EMEA teams at Red Bull Home Ground 2 where they ended up in 8th position. In their last five matches, Fnatic have only won two matches.

On the other hand, Cloud9 Blue, the darkhorse from North America, showed good results in their past five matches. The team played the VCT NA Last Chance Qualifiers, where they came out as winners and ultimately qualified for the Champions Tour. Cloud9 Blue has won four out of their five current matchups.

Predictions

Considering the recent performance of the two teams, Cloud9 Blue has shown better results in their current matches than Fnatic. However, it is tough to consider a possible winner early as Fnatic has the potential to give strong competition to the NA roster in Valorant Champions 2021 Berlin.
