Matchup Analysis
A place in the final is on the line
This is a best-of-five lower final: the winner advances to face LOUD in the Champions grand final, while the loser is out. The extended format puts more weight on map-pool depth and mid-series adaptation than a single-map swing.
Source100 Thieves arrive after a response against G2
After dropping the opener to G2 on Lotus, 100 Thieves took Ascent 13-10 and Summit 13-7 to win the series 2-1. That turnaround is an encouraging sign of adjustment under elimination pressure.
SourceVitality have a recent blueprint—and a warning
Vitality beat LOUD 13-8 on Lotus in their latest series, but then lost Summit 5-13 and Haven 11-13. The opener showed their ceiling; the two-map finish underscores the challenge of sustaining control across a series.
SourceDifferent looks in the server
The listed 100 Thieves five is Vora, Cryocells, Asuna, Timotino and bang, while Vitality’s is Jamppi, PROFEK, Derke, Chronicle and Sayonara. Those current team profiles are useful reference points for lineup identification, rather than assumptions based on older rosters.
SourcePick Ideas
100 Thieves moneyline at -163
The market makes 100 Thieves the favorite, and their recent series win gives some support to that side. At -163, treat it as a measured position rather than a certainty in a best-of-five.
Over 3.5 maps, if the price is reasonable
A best-of-five offers room for a team to recover from a rough map and still take the series; consider the over rather than expecting a quick sweep. Check the available price before betting, since no map-total odds were provided.
