The Leviatan and FURIA match will be the start of the Upper Bracket of the Valorant Americas League 2023. Both teams barely made it to the playoffs. Let us see who comes out on top.
The Valorant Americas League has been a mixed bag so far. The 100T vs MIBR match was the decider to see which teams made it through playoffs. In an unexpected outcome, MIBR dominated 100T and it was eminent for all three maps. The score for the maps that MIBR won was 13-6, 13-7.
100T were severely outclassed and thus went into the LCQ with other teams like Sentinels, KRU Esports, and MIBR. They will battle it out in the LCQ to see which teams make it through to Valorant Champions. However, we still have to decide on the Upper Bracket matches. Let us get into it.

Leviatan vs FURIA; The Winner Goes on to Face LOUD in Valorant Americas UB Semis
Leviatan and FURIA have been inconsistent throughout the whole league. However, none of the teams have been up to their promised standard except C9 and LOUD. NRG has improved since the start of the season. The teams in the 4th, 5th, and 6th position in the points table have 4 wins and 5 losses each.
FURIA and Leviatan are included in those teams. FURIA lost their last match-up against Sentinels while Leviatan lost against LOUD. However, this is a much more important match than a league one. Either of these teams mess up and they are in the LB, where one loss equals elimination and LCQ.
Predictions
Both teams have strong fundamentals and snappy individual players. The problem is that they have struggled in converting their round wins into map and series wins. Out of the last five matches these two teams have played, they have only one.
This is a must-win for either of these teams but based on the compositions and executions of these teams, we would say that FURIA has the upper hand. We predict the match is going to go map three while FURIA takes the series 2-1. However, Leviatan could win if all of their players were in sync for this one.
Head-to-Head
The last time these two teams faced off against each other FURIA won the match 2-1. Leviatan gave a good fight in the end but was outclassed due to the team composition and Dgzin’s firepower. You can check out the highlights from their last match in the video above.
