NRG’s current core offers a balanced, structured look

NRG’s lineup of Brawk, Ethan, Keiko, mada and skuba gives them a well-rounded mix of roles, allowing them to play slow, default-heavy Valorant without relying on a single hard carry.

Youthful Leviatán leans on kiNgg’s leadership

Leviatán comes in with one of the younger cores in the region, highlighted by 18-year-old sentinel Neon, while long-time in-game leader kiNgg provides veteran structure and direction.

Leviatán’s agent pool points to utility-heavy game plans

With a history of comfort on agents like Sova, Omen, Jett, Viper and Raze, Leviatán tends to build compositions around layered utility and decisive site hits rather than pure brawl comps.

Ethan gives NRG a proven late-round closer

Pick Ideas

NRG moneyline anchored by superior recent form

Over the past 30 days NRG has posted a 67% win rate with a 4–2 series record, while Leviatán sits at 25% with a 1–3 mark, suggesting the home side deserves clear favorite status on the moneyline.

NRG -1.5 maps backed by recent head-to-head sweeps

In the last year of this matchup, NRG has taken both series by 2–0 scorelines for a 4–0 map differential, supporting a look at the -1.5 map handicap if prices are reasonable.

Sato kill/ACS overs as a volume-based angle

Sato’s overall numbers around 250 ACS and a 1.28 K/D show he consistently produces high frag volume in his aggressive role, making his kills or ACS overs attractive even in matches where Leviatán may be underdogs.

Neon utility involvement supports assist or K+A overs

Neon’s profile includes heavy utility usage with solid KAST and supportive numbers despite a more modest K/D, which can translate into strong assist or combined kill-plus-assist outputs on sentinel-heavy setups.

Leviatán round handicaps on their own map pick

Leviatán’s best agents, such as Viper and Killjoy, carry win rates near or above the high-50s to 60% range in their dataset, suggesting they can keep their own map pick within a few rounds and justify taking a moderate round handicap like +3.5.
