Valorant EMEA rolls up to its final stages as the unbeatable World Champions FNATIC take on the NAVI superteam. It is sure to be a banger of a match. Details below.
FNATIC has shown no signs of stopping since the VCT LOCK IN event win. They became Champions and a new fire started within them. Since then, no one has managed to defeat this team. In fact, a lot of teams have had a hard time even taking maps away from them.
The duo of Boaster’s IGL brain combined with all four members’ fragging ability has ensured that they are an unbeatable squadron. However, they are set to face NAVI, which is a force to be reckoned with. Will FNATIC be the only undefeated team in the VCT Leagues? Or will they fall just like LOUD did to NRG and DRX to Team Secret?

NAVI and FNATIC are the top two teams in the EMEA region. They have defeated everyone and have proven themselves to be the successful bunch out of the roster mania last year. Now that these teams are established, it will be really fun to see them take on each other. The VCT Lock-In event was fun, but the rosters were not well-acquainted with each other.
Now that they have played lots of games and established a connection, the battles we see are going to be much more coordinated. That is what we expect to see out of these two teams. FNATIC’s core has been together for a whole year, the same as the NAVI core, who are former World Champions.
cNed fit in right with the team and blended well as the star duelist. We are curious as to who will win the head-to-head between him and Derke. Here are our predictions.
Predictions
We believe NAVI will give FNATIC a tough time due to their coordination and team play. However, if all goes well FNATIC will manage to defeat the superteam 2-1. The match will be really close on all fronts and if NAVI does manage to defeat FNATIC we won’t be surprised.

Head-to-Head
These two teams have only faced each other once and that was at the LOCK IN event. In that match, FNATIC were insanely coordinated and their teamwork was on point as they took a straight win 3-0. Will NAVI be able to get revenge on the FNATIC roster for their defeat?
