Depending on how well Faze plays, this could be an amazing Bo5.
still rooting for imt tho
Alora [#2]So are these going to be casted or what?
The first set of matches will not, only the semis and the finals will.
Edit: They added one quarterfinals match for each region on the Contenders schedule. We get to see RNG vs FNRGFE, both semis and the finals.
DG0117 [#4]can someone from over.gg put the two Canadian flags from IMT together pls?
This. Please.
FaZe has had a pretty decent run. Not retaining their prior form in the Contenders group stage hints at inconsistency. But they proved that they could play in high tension situations when they needed too and in doing this they got themselves into brackets. There is a real chance that they only play better as FaZe has players that have proven an ability to carry (Spree, ShaDoWBurn) and therefore it makes the team a bit of a wild card. They have gotten more time to play together as a team in between stages and this will only build their team cohesion and help them improve any potential inconsistencies.
Immortals on the other hand has historically been a hit or miss kind of team. They are very consistent when they aren't in a slump and have the skill to catapult themselves to the top of NA overwatch. When they are off however, they have often had shaky results. This is another game for KariV and FaTe to display their talent to NA and return Immortals to their previous form.
I am going to give an edge to Immortals on this on as they are playing better than FaZe statistically right now, but don't be surprised by a win from FaZe if they are playing well and the group stage performance is shaken away.
Immortals 3-1 FaZe
