The second day of VCT 2025 Americas Stage 1 will begin with what is expected to be a very lopsided fixture between the defending VCT Americas champions, G2 Esports, and the Kickoff wooden spoon winners, FURIA Esports.
Following an atrocious display in the season-opening event, FURIA decided to freshen up their roster with the signing of Luis “pryze” Henrique from 2GAME Esports, who will take over for Leonardo “mwzera” Serrati. While this change is unlikely to improve FURIA in any massive way, things can only go up for them.
After a long break, it is not too wild to expect a few upsets early in Stage 1, but out of all the teams, G2 Esports are least likely to drop the ball. They might be more vulnerable on Ascend, but we would need a better price than +162 to consider backing FURIA to take a map.

Esports betting sites can hardly split these two, and recent results show why. MIBR did better in the VCT 2025 Americas Kickoff, with a bronze medal, whereas Leviatan had to settle for fifth-sixth place after losing a very close overtime against MiBR in the lower-bracket quarterfinals.
For the rematch, Leviatan will field Daniel “Rossy” Abedrabbo, who joined from Cloud9 at the start of the month. Rossy is a solid individual player, but his arrival is unlikely to make Leviatan much better than they were in the Kickoff tournament, where they beat just FURIA.
On the other hand, MiBR arguably overperformed at the season opener and might be a bit overrated by the market. This is as close to a coin flip as it gets, so take the -116.28 for over 2.5 maps.
