KOI vs Team Heretics Preview and Predictions – VCT 2023 EMEA League

Week 7 of the VCT 2023 EMEA League comes to an end with the KOI vs Team Heretics matchup

Both teams are sitting at the bottom of the standings with little to no hope of qualification. Interestingly enough, all the pre-tournament predictions had them secure the playoffs spot with ease. It is hard to fathom what caused such strong rosters to deliver so many terrible performances. Nevertheless, KOI and Team Heretics will look to end the league stage on a good note bagging some consolation victories.

KOI

KOI will be getting on the stage for the second time this week. Their postponed match against FNATIC was played on the first day of week seven, and the result was what everyone predicted. KOI suffered yet another loss, making it their sixth consecutive defeat.

Team Heretics

With a record of 2-5, even if Team Heretics win both their upcoming matchups, they might still not make it to the playoffs. Although they managed to win the last week’s clash against a formidable team like Giants Gaming playing with a sub, the damage was already done by then. The 4-match losing streak from week 2 to week 5 cost the Spanish team dearly.
