Could underdog teams surprise everyone at Masters Santiago?
I keep thinking this Masters Santiago event might be one of those tournaments where an underdog suddenly becomes everyone’s favorite team. I watched a few regional matches with my younger brother, and we both noticed that some less-hyped teams looked way more organized than expected. Do you think any of the underdog teams could actually surprise everyone, or will the usual favorites still control the whole tournament?

Honestly, I would not be shocked if a smaller team makes a deep run. Valorant feels different from some other esports because one confident roster can build momentum really fast, especially if their map pool is prepared well. I was reading a breakdown connected to regional leagues, team form, and predictions around 1xBet Philippines, and it mentioned teams like Nongshim RedForce and All Gamers doing better than many people probably expected. That is exactly why I think the “safe” predictions are not always safe. Sometimes the pressure is heavier on the favorites than on the teams with nothing to lose.
