Before leaving for Berlin, where he is participating with Team Liquid, ScreaM announced in his stream his predictions for this year's Valorant Champions Group stage. Readers can check this video from the 01:24:19 mark to catch his choices.
Group A
For the first match in Group A between Ascend and Keyd Stars, ScreaM chose Ascend. Between Envy and X10 CRIT, he selected the former to go into the winner's bracket.
ScreaM predicts a big matchup between the two winners as both of their teams with huge potential, with Envy being the potential winners. Between the two losers, he selected Keyd Stars to go on to face Ascend. The final matchup will be won by Ascend to become the second qualifier from Group A.
Predicted Qualifiers - Envy and Ascend.
Group B
For Group B, ScreaM's first two picks were quicker. He thinks both KRÜ Esports and FURIA will easily edge past their opponents. Between these two winners, ScreaM gives FURIA the win.
Between Team Liquid and Sentinels, ScreaM pits his team in the losing position as Sentinels moves ahead before KRÜ Esports stops them and becomes the second qualifier from Group B. Given Team Liquid is in the Group, his predictions must be taken with a grain of salt.
Predicted Qualifiers - KRÜ Esports and FURIA.
Group C
In the match between Gambit Esports and Team Secret, he picks Gambit Esports to go through. ScreaM thinks the match between Team Vikings and Crazy Raccoon will be an excellent and close game for Valorant players to watch. Team Vikings would emerge victoriously. Gambit Esports will win against Vikings to qualify first.
Between Team Secret and Crazy Raccoon, ScreaM thinks the latter will win to set up a rematch against Vikings. Vikings will again prevail in becoming the second qualifier from Group C into the Valorant Champions Knockout stage.
Predicted Qualifiers - Gambit Esports and Team Vikings.
Group D
To start, ScreaM picks Vision Strikers from their match against FULL SENSE. It is in the matchup between Fnatic and Cloud9 Blue that ScreaM thinks is a difficult one to predict. He chose Fnatic to go ahead and meet Vision Strikers, from which they will emerge as the first qualifier.
In the first elimination match between FULL SENSE and Cloud9 Blue, ScreaM predicts that Cloud9 Blue will fight through to a win. In the second elimination match, Cloud9 Blue will come up short against Vision Strikers.
Predicted Qualifiers - Fnatic and Vision Strikers.
Valorant Champions 2021's Group Stage will last till December 7. It remains to be seen how true ScreaM's predictions turn out to be.
