Leviatán vs 100 Thieves at VCT Americas 2024 Stage 1 Playoffs
Prediction
Leviatán has been one of the strongest teams in VCT Americas 2024 Stage 1. The Latin American organization revamped its roster around superstar duelist aspas. This has paid dividends for the team as Leviatán managed to dominate their opposition barring one defeat against Cloud9 in the first game of Stage 1.
aspas has simply been unstoppable thanks to incredibly consistent performances and excellent teamwork with IGL kiNgg. Both of these players have been absolute standouts for the roster and are the driving forces for Leviatán's immense success so far. The team had a slow start to the year but has finally ramped up just in time for a potential trip to Masters Shanghai.
100 Thieves have been on an incredible upswing with massive victories over NRG and LOUD. The North American team has shown some incredible teamwork and individual prowess with players like Asuna and Cryocells having monstrous performances.
100 Thieves will have a tall task ahead of them but with their current form, this matchup might be much closer than anticipated. If Cryocells can maintain his incredible form and the support line of 100 Thieves can neuter aspas then there is a legitimate chance that we get to see the American organization return to the international stage.
Prediction: Leviatán wins the series 2-1
