VISION STRIKERS vs FULL SENSE VALORANT BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

VALORANT Odds: VS -833.33 at BetOnline | FS +450 at BetOnline

?Vision Strikers have gained recognition as Korea’s best Valorant esports team with their insane 102-game win streak in VCT Korea and other small regional tournaments. What’s more, VS enter VALORANT Champions 2021 with a 94% win rate in the past 78 games (73-2-3).

While those numbers are impressive, it must be said that the region doesn’t really offer any tough opposition outside of NUTURN GAMING and DAMWON Gaming. Still, Vision Strikers have done well in international competitions and reached the quarter-finals in Berlin in September before they lost to the eventual champions, Gambit Esports (1-2).

FULL SENSE are the strongest Taiwanese squad, with plenty of achievements to show for it. But their most impressive run came in the APAC Last Chance Qualifiers last month, where FULL SENSE beat some notable names such as NUTURN and DAMWON.

FULL SENSE have had some solid showings domestically, but their region is still very weak. Anything less than a 2-0 sweep will be a disappointment for Vision Strikers.

TEAM VIKINGS vs CRAZY RACCOON VALORANT BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

VALORANT Odds: Vikings -138.89 at BetOnline | CR +100 at BetOnline
When: December 1, 2021 at 18:00 CET
Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/VALORANT)

?Team Vikings are priced as -138.89 favourites to defeat Crazy Raccoon, which we find fair since they are expected to make it out of the group. While we hadn’t seen Vikings in action since August when they lost to Keyd Stars in VCT Stage 3 Challengers Playoffs, it’s hard to ignore how dominant they’ve been inside their region this season.

Crazy Raccoon won the fan’s hearts in Iceland, where they showed solid performances against stronger teams, and they won one match in Berlin in September. Still, Crazy Raccoon haven’t achieved anything of note this season.

As much as it’s great to see underdogs succeed, Crazy Raccoon should have no business beating Team Vikings. The Japanese squad have shown improvement, but we have to take the favourites.

FNATIC vs CLOUD9 BLUE VALORANT BETTING & MATCH DETAILS

VALORANT Odds: Fnatic +162 at BetOnline | C9 -227.27 at BetOnline
When: December 1, 2021 at 21:00 CET
Watch Live: Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/VALORANT)

?Fnatic and Cloud9 Blue are two of the strongest teams in Group D, but things could get messy if Vision Strikers show up. As a result, this is a must-win match for both squads, so we expect an exciting affair.

Assuming we see the teams play to their full potential, Cloud9 Blue should win; however, we wouldn’t be surprised if they get swept, because C9 have very high highs and very low lows.

Fnatic seem not to be getting much respect, even though they have proven many doubters wrong with a finals run in Iceland, exposing everyone to the world of Jake “Boaster” Howlett. Admittedly, Fnatic are here only thanks to Gambit, who earned an additional spot for EMEA, but that’s more of an advantage for the black and orange since other teams haven’t been able to study Fnatic while they have more than enough film on other squads.
This could be a very close game, but at +162, we have to take Fnatic.
