Team Vitality vs M8 Preview
Team Vitality is in Group C along with Fnatic and Gentle Mates. The team’s first match was against Gentle Mates, a series that they won quite comfortably with a 2-0 score. Vitality has had a few changes to its roster, most notably the addition of Destrian earlier this year. The new addition brings more firepower, but also raises some doubts about the team’s preparation for this event. So far, they have not disappointed limiting M8 to 17 rounds total in their first series.
The initial series had runneR shine with 39 kills to his name. But despite his heroics, there were two more players with more than 30 frags, highlighting the dominance of the Vitality attack side. While Vitality are the superior team when it comes to raw firepower, they also have a strategic advantage over Gentle Mates. This series will be a rematch and VALORANT fans can expect a similar outcome to this one too.
