NRG vs. MIBR: The First Time These Valorant Teams Will Face Each Other
NRG looks to be in form since they won their last match against Sentinels while MIBR did the same thing against KRU Esports. However, this will be a battle of the IGLs between Murizz and FNS. The former is known for unorthodox strategies while FNS has the fundamentals down to a science and also has great mid-rounding capability. Let us take a look at MIBR and NRG rosters and pick out players to watch out for.
NRG
- Ardiis
- S0m
- FNS
- Crashies
- Victor
MIBR
- Heat
- Frz
- Murizz
- RgLMeister
- Jzz
People will look towards Victor and Heat for entries and great fragging potential. In addition, Jzz and RGL have shown great potential in the previous matches. Let us see if their hard work will pay off against NRG’s star power. MIBR is definitely the underdog going into this match since everyone is going to eye NRG to win the series. However, one must not count out an upset victory on the side of MIBR since NRG lost to Leviatan as well in their first match in VCT Americas.
We do think NRG is going to take the series win 2-0. We say that because NRG has good fragging potential and FNS is one of the best IGLs in the game. In addition, they have the best communication out of any other Americas team besides 100T, LOUD, and Furia. However, we would love to be pleasantly surprised if MIBR were to beat NRG.
