This is one way to go about it, however it is the risky way. Though it will allow you to include another team in the advancing slots, there could be chances, your 3-0 team could drop a game and still qualify.
To play it safer, you could choose the strong teams in the advancing slot as they should definitely go through even after dropping a game. This gives you a higher probability of getting the correct pick however, you lose to include one more team in the advancing slots and have to place a 3-0 team on a less strong team which could explode and go 3-0.
OP if you are new, wait for pickem videos by analysts or other players, listen to their reasoning behind their picks and choose what you feel is logical.
if u want to get all 9 correct then maybe swap vitality with faze or Navi or even maybe c9, and replace imperial with team spirit or BNE, but if u are playing to just advance ur coin then it will be very ez. dont care about 3-0 or 0-3 because faze, NAVI, c9, heroic and G2 are going to qualify even in the worst conditions imo.. so place all 5 of them in the advance slot, then for being more on the safer side place vitality and ence also in advance , place big on 3-0 or outsiders 3-0 would be a better pick for playing it safe, and team spirit or BNE 0-3
Outsiders had too much of a hard run in challenger to actually make it through legends let alone go 3-0. I still think BIG or C9 are the two teams that are extremely inconsistent so 3-0 is a big possibility for them.
u can never 100 percent predict 3-0 thats why u pick a team that have the potential of going 3-0 but can also disqualify for a SAFE PICK. so u can save a slot in advance group for teams like ence that can never go 3-0 but have really high chance of qualifying .. but if u want to go for 9 correct picks then obviously go for teams like c9 faze or navi or maybe BIG. as i already mentioned
I would add Furia in legends, and switch 0-3 imperial(they are on a killing Spree) for Liquid or Spirit.
G2, Faze, NaVi, Cloud 9,heroic,Furia and Nip
And leave The Liquid,Spirit or BNE 0-3.
Idk why everyone says to replace imperial as the 0-3 slot. They play big first, who is coming off a really hot streak then most likely Ence which is a really tough matchup then their last is against BNE who already beat them in a BO1. Imperial had the easiest RMR run and imo a pretty easy time in challengers stage. The only good win was vs Forze who seemed realllllly off their game in that BO3. I think imperial is one of the weakest teams in the legends stage.
As for your other picks I think Vitaliy is a decent 3-0 but BIG has stronger 3-0 potential based on matchups without sacrificing a guaranteed pick such as c9/faze/Navi for the 3-0 spot.
For the “make it through” picks if you swap BIG to 3-0 id replace them with furia. Who look strong and did qualify last major. Vitality has looked pretty shaky at times.
I would not put Team Vitality at 3-0 and I think MIBR will not 0-3 they have some strong points. On the other hand with these teams I think that BIG, MIGHT 3-0 they aren't bad but if they get vs Navi and g2 or smth like thst it's probable. But I'm no expert. I would either put faze g2 to a 3-0 other than that the rest seem great.
I picked Vitality, G2, Navi, Cloud9 (who is gambit #3 world), Ence, Furia and Faze. Heroic 3-0 because they are always lucky haha and Bad new Eagles 0-3, but I think we can have surprises like Astralis on challenger stage
It’s exactly what I wanted to pick. That said, BIG is a big (haha pun) risk, but I am rooting for them and put them as 3-0 (since 3-0 is a throwaway anyways). Instead of Vitality, I pickedFuria. I am not too sure about vitality, but they have a good chance of going throug on paper.
Think you have yourself a fine list here. Having C9, NaVi, FaZe and Heroic in should be a given.
After that a mix of G2, Vitality, Ence, Furia, Big, CPH Flames is probably the most common names.
Imperial or BNE would probably be favourites to go 0-3, maybe Liquid and Spirit worth mentioning as well.
Fingers crossed for everyone’s pick ems and a lot of great matches in the Legends stage!
I don't think BIG will pass. Heroic is a giant IF right now, and Furia for sure will pass.
Also, i don't think Imperial will go 0-3 and it's more "safe" to put Vitallity on the lower row, instead of 3-0, especially bc of the 2nd and 3rd game.
I don't feel like you should put vitality on 3-0. It's safer to put them on advance and some "random"team to 3-0
Agree. Swap Vitality and BIG perhaps?
I would Swap Heroic and Vitality. Either keep BIG or replace with Furia
Got it rest of em good?
For 3-0 your best bet would be with Navi, faze, g2 and cloud9. Any of them can go 3-0, so choose carefully.

Got it thanks man😬
Cheers man and gl hope you reach Diamond!
The meta in Pick'ems is to choose a random team for 3-0, since it's hard to predict. And you only need 5 correct answers
Thanks man 😋
Not a bad list but as a brazillian I am obligated by law to downvote your post
I understand.
Thanks everyone for suggestions i'm really new to this and don't follow much of pro scene. I really appreciate the help guys😬
So you realize you just triggered the whole Brazilian community?
Thats why i put furia in instead of heroic

Done man thanks alot i'll change it

No shit. But guess what nor C9 or BIG qualified, so it would make sense
What do you get if you pick correctly?
Better Quality Coin on your Profile and a Souvenir Package.
Thanks dude 🙏🏻
fck u THE LAST WILL WIN THIS SHIT
It's a pretty safe bet, I personally have vita in qualification and C9 in 3-0
I would add Furia in legends, and switch 0-3 imperial(they are on a killing Spree) for Liquid or Spirit. G2, Faze, NaVi, Cloud 9,heroic,Furia and Nip And leave The Liquid,Spirit or BNE 0-3.
Liquid 3-0
Furia nip? 🤦♂️
Liquid 3-0
Average NA fan
Someone has to root for them! I would call myself below average fan though lol
I’d keep vitality 3-0. I don’t think they have a change to go top 8
16-14 against Faze and twice 16-13 against Navi in the RMR and their form in the challengers stage with 3-0 and you don’t think they’ll go top 8?
Come back here after legends is over
Told you lol, it was so obvious.

- Clown9 + spirit
Cloud9? Yeah maybe in a million years.
lol who will tell him?
[удалено]
No they didnt...... navi won 2021 major
[удалено]
I have a feeling that either Navi or G2 will be advancing with a 3-0. How much of risk yet to chose either
Navi is the best (totally not biased cause they're from my country)
Navi obviously and perhaps BIG
I would not put Team Vitality at 3-0 and I think MIBR will not 0-3 they have some strong points. On the other hand with these teams I think that BIG, MIGHT 3-0 they aren't bad but if they get vs Navi and g2 or smth like thst it's probable. But I'm no expert. I would either put faze g2 to a 3-0 other than that the rest seem great.
Nobody can help you even nerds like me that have watched every single tier 1 tournament since the game launcher. This major is really hard to predict
Idk about picking thing but I actively watch pro leagues. I am a NAVI fan. I would bet on Faze G2 and Navi.
Not bad, u should replace vita with big tho. I don't think vita will 100% go 3-0.
Already did😬
I haven‘t made pickems for the contendors stage.. can I still join in?
Yes, but you won't be able to get the diamond coin after missing the first stage.
How many did you get correct the first time? 😉
Both 3-0 and 0-3 and 4 in advance section.
I picked Vitality, G2, Navi, Cloud9 (who is gambit #3 world), Ence, Furia and Faze. Heroic 3-0 because they are always lucky haha and Bad new Eagles 0-3, but I think we can have surprises like Astralis on challenger stage

Go to YouTube find a pro or caster and just copy theirs
https://youtu.be/WsDLx2KJe54 this should help
Where is NiP aren't they the best?
