Evil Geniuses are starting to improve a lot in terms of their strat calling in Valorant Americas. Previously, we saw them take on Sentinels and defeat them 2-0. That itself is a huge sign that this team is not just a meme team. EG showed the world that they came to play and by defeating a team filled with World Champions, they passed the litmus test. Now they have better times ahead of them as they look to make playoffs. Standing in their way is MIBR, who has had poor form for the last couple of matches. Let us break it down.
EG vs MIBR: Who do You Have Your Bets on in this Valorant Americas Match?
Evil Geniuses have had stellar form for the last couple of matches. They beat Leviatan and Sentinels while almost beating LOUD on the second map. They are a formidable team but all they lacked was the timing and execution. Now that their players are starting to heat up, we can expect good things from them. MIBR on the other hand have slowed down after their initial victories in the league.
They lost 4 of their last five matches in VCT Americas and the team is supposedly removing star Duelist heat for the next matches and replacing him with Txozin. According to vlr.gg, it is stated that heat moved away from the lineup due to personal reasons. That being said, let us look at the potential rosters for both teams which can also be subjected to last-minute changes.
EG
- Boostio
- C0m

MIBR

Predictions
We predict that EG is going to sweep this series 2-1. MIBR are a fighting team and they won’t back down but EG has looked strong these past weeks and they definitely have the potential to make it to playoffs. EG’s strat calling has looked strong, their individual plays are flawless and their utility usage is immaculate. These are the reasons we think EG is going to win. In terms of the points table at the time of writing, EG is at the 6th spot barely making playoffs while MIBR is at the 9th just above KRU.
