Team Liquid vs FNATIC Preview and Predictions – VCT 2023 EMEA League

Day 10 of VCT 2023 EMEA concludes with the Team Liquid vs FNATIC matchup

FNATIC is going to be the toughest opponent for Team Liquid as they fight through the Regular Season. Boaster and his crew are coming from a 13-match win streak while carrying a trophy from LOCK//IN, and they are the clear favorites in this matchup. These squads have had multiple encounters throughout the years, especially in 2021. Now, it will be interesting to see if the new Team Liquid can go against the best roster in Valorant right now.

Team Liquid

nAts and his team are in a decent position right now after their last two wins. Team Liquid dominated Karmine Corp in their last series, winning both maps in wide round differences. Jamppi and Sayf have been putting up great performances, and Team Liquid might be one of the few names in VCT EMEA to stand a chance against FNATIC’s fury.
