100 Thieves vs G2 Esports - Which team will win VCT Americas 2024 Stage 1?
Prediction
100 Thieves have looked exceptional throughout Stage 1. The team has looked a lot better since Kickoff and every player on the roster has been heavily reliable when it comes to individual skill. This version of 100 Thieves could very well become a potential contender for winning VCT Masters Shanghai.
G2 Esports has been on a similar journey. With each match, the team's performance has gotten better. Their recent win against Leviatán is easily among the most notable as G2 had lost two maps in Overtime and were able to recollect themselves to make it to the Grand Finals.
This match of 100 Thieves vs G2 Esports is favoring the former as they have looked slightly stronger than their opponents. However, G2 Esports' performance trajectory has only been going with each map and this Bo5 series could lead to the team's first trophy ever.
