Prediction for the Cloud9 vs. KRÜ Esports match. VCT Americas League 2023 Playoffs 19.05.2023

Cloud9 and KRÜ Esports will face each other in the final round of the regular season of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Americas League. Surprisingly, the outcome of this meeting does not affect both teams as they have already determined their fate in the tournament.

The North American team is already guaranteed a spot in the semifinals, while KRÜ Esports has almost no chance of advancing further. They have yet to defeat any opponents, which is quite a disappointing fact.

In general, Cloud9 has excellent chances of securing their eighth consecutive victory. I am confident that they will achieve a convincing victory in this encounter.

Cloud9’s Current Form The North American team is ranked second in the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Americas League standings, even though they suffered a defeat to LOUD in the first round of the group stage.

However, Cloud9 quickly turned things around by defeating several strong competitors in succession.

As they approach the final round, they have only one loss to their name. Their gameplay is impressive, and I believe they deserve a place in the tournament’s finals.

Cloud9’s Recent Results:

• Victory over NRG with a score of 2:1.
• Victory over FURIA with a score of 2:0.
• Victory over Sentinels with a score of 2:0.
• Victory over MIBR with a score of 2:0.
• Victory over Leviatán Esports with a score of 2:0.

Cloud9’s Best Maps:

• Lotus – 100% win rate.
• Split – 100% win rate.
• Fracture – 80% win rate.
• Pearl – 67% win rate.
• Ascent – 67% win rate.
• Bind – 67% win rate.
• Haven – 67% win rate.

Statistics show that Cloud9 usually avoids playing the map Pearl.

KRÜ Esports’ Current Form The Latin American team is ranked second in the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Americas League standings. However, they suffered a defeat in the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo tournament, losing to Natus Vincere.

Furthermore, KRÜ Esports continues to face losses in the group stage of VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Americas League and their performance is declining.

The team no longer has a chance to make it to the playoffs, and their performance is becoming less exciting.

KRÜ Esports’ Recent Results:

• Defeat to 100 Thieves with a score of 1:2.
• Defeat to NRG with a score of 0:2.
• Defeat to LOUD with a score of 1:2.
• Defeat to Leviatán Esports with a score of 0:2.
• Defeat to Sentinels with a score of 0:2.

KRÜ Esports’ Best Map:

As you can see, the Latin American team usually avoids playing the map Lotus.
