Honestly a hype match LW needs to win this and AF has very strong upset potential
Group stages were pretty much all 3-0 and 3-1 last season too. We did have some good matches during the playoffs but final was so one sided(IIRC Envy 4-0'd AF Blue). They changed the playoffs to double elimination this season so that will probably lead to more balanced matches further on. The only thing that can ruin the match ups is if LWB,LH and Envy end up in the same group.(I don't know how they are going to decide the groups for the 2nd stage)
