What to Watch
Bo1s give underdogs real chances, and Lowkey W just proved they can win when synced. The question is whether they can do it twice.
For Leviathan, the early game has to improve. They need Freemok and overseas setting the pace. In last week's loss, Freemok's
Pocket managed a 3.14 KDA, and flammab1e struggled to 2.00 on Mo and Krill. If Leviathan's support core falls behind, their carries don't get space to farm back.
