It is the VCT LOCK IN Showmatch. With most franchised teams out, the showdown match would occur between Tarik and frttt. But why has SK Rossi stayed back in Sao Paulo?
There were a lot of rumors stating why he would stay back. The strongest one is that he will play the Showmatch with Tarik’s team.

Global Esports’ co-owner, Rushindra Sinha also teased that Rossi will be staying back for some “unknown” reasons. While the team will return to base, SK Rossi will once again perform on the global stage.
Fans of the Indian franchised team were quick to deduce something was happening and all they had to do was wait. Soon after, Rossi was seen at the casters’ desk with three other casters and fans thought that was the end of it.
While the speculations might have been correct, SK Rossi is staying back in Sao Paulo. However, he is not going to be a part of Tarik’s playing five. Global Esports’ Rossi will be a crucial part of frttt’s playing five. Both Tarik and frttt will have a squad and two members for both of them were announced. Tarik’s playing five will include Michaela “mimi” Lintrup and paulanobrez, while frttt’s will have Ganesh “SkRossi” Gangadhar and veelaskez.
