After all, VCT Stage 2 Challengers Vietnam also ended well with the convincing championship for Cerberus Esports. In the final, “Three-headed dog” crushed Fearus with a score of 3-0, thereby becoming the first king of Valorant Vietnam. However, Fearus does not need to be too sad because they will also win the second ticket to attend the Southeast Asia tournament.
At VCT: Sea Stage 2 Challengers Finals, Fearus and Cerberus Esports will compete with teams from 6 other areas that are Hong Kong, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore and Philippines from April 29 to May 2, 2021. But before the tournament started, let Thethao.vn evaluate what the opportunities of Vietnamese representatives will be.
Cerberus Esports: The strength of the champion
Before VCT Stage 2 Challengers Vietnam began, CES was one of the most “silent” names, and also rated compared to the Steal Your Glory, Divisionx Gaming or even EGO. However, thanks to the extremely impressive falling point, Daicuteee and his teammates have shown everyone to see who is the real champion.
CES's “Terrific Switching” journey started from the match against Kantic Gaming. Meeting with his former Imcarnus, Cerberus Esports did not give the opponent any opportunity to protest with a 2-0 victory. In particular, in the 2nd game, “Three-headed dog” defeated his opponent with a result of 13-0. It is the darkest ratio of VCT Stage 2 Challengers Vietnam.
Since then, CES has gone a circuit to the final when overcoming Ego, No Hope Gaming and finally the Fearus crushing screen with a score of 3-0 to become the first Valorant champion of Vietnam. As Thethao.vn mentioned, CES is not a team like SBTC Esports with Roy or Divisionx Gaming with Yesican. Instead, collective strength is an important factor that helps Cerberus Esports to the throne.
CES shows the uniformity in all positions when the Lok1, Akashi, and Kishi show impresses and maintains stability. But when walking into the regional arena, Daicuteee could become a spiritual fulcrum for CES. He is the MVP of VCT Stage 2 Challengers Vietnam with 3411.9 damage in each match, and achieved the HEAD Shots ratio of 21.9%.
Fearus: ready to make “umbrella”
Defeating both Steal Your Glory and No Hope Gaming to win a ticket to VCT: Sea Stage 2 Challengers Finals has made experts have a different view of Fear. Before Vietnam Champions Tour 2021 took place, Fearus was only considered a young, desire but still not equal to the Steal Your Glory or Divisionx Gaming.
However, Nhatthong2K and his teammates have proven themselves completely enough to make a story in the Southeast Asia tournament. Compared to CES, Fearus's journey is more arduous when they have to fall to the losing branch and cope with Yamagan, Syg or NHG. But with the confidence, the “umbrella” of VCT Stage 2 Challengers Vietnam has surpassed all.
Fearus's luggage at VCT: Sea Stage 2 Challengers Vietnam may be the spirit of excitement after the second place in the domestic league. In fact, rivals probably not too much attention to Fearus when they are only the No. 2 seed of Vietnam. This can be considered as an advantage for pink boys in the upcoming tournament.
Compared to CES, Fearus has three key factors in that squad, Nhatthong2k, CuppyCake with Slowz. If a little more psychological improvement and a more cohesive gameplay, Fear is completely capable of making things before the teams from other areas.
