I think NiP is gonna come out huge. Also expecting a good performance from TSM. Fnatic to take it against NiP in the finals. Go allu!

I'm so damn HYPE for this. CS:GO is easily the most watchable esport.

My predictions for Katowice:
Fnatic to use another boost, hltv to freak out and to disqualify themselves again.
Hellraisers/CLG to go huge in groups and fail in playoffs.
NiP to somehow, someway make it to the finals.
C9 n0thing to flashbang dance on stage.
Someone to punch devilwalk in the face.
Keydstars to fail on everything not de_mirage.
Allu to surprise people.
Virtus pro to win it all.

Why do people keep picking Penta to advance over Titan? I've seen this prediction a number of times but never seen any explanation for it.

For the past two majors titan attended, they didn't advance past groups. I guess people predict it because previous failures pressure titan a lot.

titan literally has 1 of the 5 players that didn't advance those times

I'm not saying it's impossible, but that's ridiculously faulty logic lol
