It’s hard to predict anyone besides Splyce winning, but I personally would like to see Tox take it home. Or someone like Reciprocity or Elevate. ScudPuddle - I agree. I think it’s either going to be Splyce or Tox.  Probably splyce Gas HCS - Warlord on Mockit one to watch. Frequently performing against the big EU teams online Sander - Finally a TOX/Splyce final at a normal time for me Shoutouts Everyone who listened to last weeks show. Thank you all for the great feedback and also thank you to those who reached out with more information. Please know the PBL story is ongoing and there is more investigating that is being done.
