However, both organizations have been far away from the limelight, considering their recent performances. Fans of North American Valorant are thrilled to watch two top contenders fight it out at VCT NA LCQ as they contest the opportunity to participate in their first major international Valorant LAN of 2022. Predictions NRG Esports and 100 Thieves are on equal footing as they enter the Upper Quarterfinals tie. Both organizations have been away from Valorant esports since the conclusion of their Stage 2 NA Challengers campaigns in June. However, after more than a month of preparation, they are ready to join OpTic Gaming and XSET as North America's representatives for the Valorant Champions 2022. NRG started the year as one of NA's top sides by claiming the 9th-10th spots at the Stage 1 NA Challengers. As they progressed to Stage 2, the roster finished the NA Challengers with an improved 4th place finish. In comparison, 100 Thieves also bagged a 9th-10th place in Stage 1, which they topped with a 5th-6th spot finish in Stage 2. Neither team has made changes to their rosters since their last VCT appearance. Nevertheless, the two organizations are equipped with tier-1 talent capable of competing at the highest level in Valorant esports. The matchup between NRG and 100 Thieves will be close, with the outcome likely to favor the former. However, fans can expect a three-map thriller that is sure to keep them on their toes.
