This leaves less room for error as usually you will pick the guaranteed teams in the qualifying spots and leave a team that may perform well as your 3-0 pick since the BO1 format may lead to a strong team losing a match but still end up qualifying fairly easily. Also, keeping a strong team in the qualifying spot instead of 3-0 also meant you will still get a point if they still went 3-0 however, now this will not count if a team that you picked 3-1/3-2 actually ends up qualifying 3-0.
Copenhagen Major – Opening Stage Predictions
For the opening stage of the Copenhagen Major, this could be a pretty hard pick’em challenge as most teams are on an equal level and whichever team shows up on a particular day could win. Some of the teams actually had a strong performance at the RMR to qualify for the major but leading up to the actual event had some shaky results in other small online tournaments.
I will share my own predictions and some alternative picks as well below:
