C9 is set to take on KRU as we approach the ending of Valorant Americas. There are no major stakes in this match except for clout, for both teams. Let us break it down.
Valorant Americas is in its final week. We recently saw Sentinels get a much-needed win against FURIA. However, their chances of qualifying are still looking nimble. This match between C9 and KRU is being played, almost as a formality since people are waiting for two of the most important matches in the league that decide the rest of the playoffs. One is LOUD and Leviatan while the other is 100T and MIBR.
Let us break down this match and see if KRU has hopes of beating the C9 squad, who have in spite of all odds, looked really clean this season.

Will C9 squash KRU and Make their Record 0-9 in Valorant Americas?
C9 has looked dominant in the league despite the departure of Jaccob “yay” Whiteaker and Anthony “vanity” Malaspina. The Jake “jakee” Anderson and Dylan “runi” Cade pick-up has blessed the team and their comps have looked solid. Facing them is KRU who has displayed poor performances in the whole league. They haven’t won a single match and if they lose this one, they will have lost every single match in the league.
Predictions
C9 has dominated every team they have faced in this league except LOUD who are undoubtedly the best team in Valorant Americas. KRU on the other hand have lost every match and have failed to capitalize on the opportunities they got when they equalized or won maps.
This will be C9 winning the game 2-0. Any other result would definitely be an upset on the side of KRU. They desperately need to make changes to their team, whether it is the players themself or the strategy.
Head-to-Head
These two teams have faced off against each other only once and that was during Red Bull Home Ground. Back then, Yay and Vanity were still a part of the team. C9 won the match 2-0. KRU gave a nice fight to C90 but they won it anyways. We believe it will be the same case this time.
