Predictions about Team Liquid vs LOUD
Team Liquid, entering with a strong roster after winning VCT EMEA 2023, was disappointed in their initial Valorant Champions 2023 match against NAVI. Despite having solid strategies, they lacked firepower and individual prowess, leading to a loss. This second chance is their opportunity to prove critics wrong.
LOUD, as the defending champions from Valorant Champions 2022, faced DRX in their previous match. Although they had a good start, their coordination wavered, resulting in a 1-2 loss. Now, they aim to regain their previous glory with a win.
In this elimination match, both teams seek survival. Team Liquid holds a slight edge due to their potential, making them favourites against LOUD.
Head-to-head, Team Liquid and LOUD have not met in major tournaments, making this their first encounter with current rosters. Team Liquid lost 2-0 to NAVI in their previous match.
LOUD also faced defeat, losing 1-2 to DRX in the ongoing tournament.
