Games in Group B of the Valorant Champions 2023 tournament kick off on August 7-8. We have prepared an article for you where we will discuss the participants, schedule, and those who have a good chance of advancing to the playoffs.
Four teams participate in Group B, each representing different regions. Here's the full list of participants:
- Evil Geniuses (America)
- T1 (Pacific)
- FUT Esports (EMEA)
- FunPlus Phoenix (China)
Who's the Favorite?
The undoubted favorite in Group B is Evil Geniuses from the American region. On paper, they should come out of the group first. However, even they might face challenges in the group due to nerves and a lack of experience in the favorite's role. This could lead to other teams preparing more for their match against them than against other opponents.
The teams that will be competing for the second playoff slot are T1 and FUT Esports. It's hard to determine which of them is stronger, as they are on a similar level. Moreover, there's a high likelihood that they'll meet twice in this group. FunPlus Phoenix is the clear underdog in this group and the primary candidate for elimination from the tournament, as suggested by most Valorant fans and analysts.
We remind you that the matches of Group B will begin on August 7-8 with a clash between FunPlus Phoenix and Evil Geniuses and T1 against FUT Esports. Tomorrow, a match will take place between the two teams that win these encounters to determine who advances from Group B.
