The video features an in-depth interview with Hypno, a professional Unreal Tournament player from Portugal. The discussion covers his gaming journey from the early 2000s through multiple versions of Unreal Tournament and other competitive games. Hypno describes starting at age 12-13 in LAN cafes, progressing through local tournaments to international competitions. He shares insights about his competitive career highlights, including winning major tournaments like WCG and a $40,000 UT3 tournament in London.

Strenx is the favorite for me. While most players focused on tdm practises he kept playing duel most of the time. He also practised toxicity A LOT so I'm guessing he will be beating everyone on the map.

Been showing great form and has produced some great online games to watch recently; would be very surprised if he was outside the top 4.

Players like stermy, killsen and spartie are ranked lower than fazz and demon. Hopefully betting pools go the same way. I'll make tons of esrmoney.

Impossible to tell tbh :D

rapha and cooller are always great, especially on big tournaments...
av3k was a beast recently, raping every single guy with gl :X ... Strenx fazz spartie stermy kilsen - aim whores are always dangerous... However im sure cypher will not win... No reasons, but he wont.


I would like to see mr 3rd place winning, but i guess hes still to young in top scene to take 1st place

i know a lot ppl thinks that fazz can't make his group but still almost every game vs fazz on iem were very close and he playing a lot tdm/duel so he might show some good resaults imo. :)

Avek. Form looks really strong as does his motivation and commitment.

Do think strenx could also be a strong contender for top 3 as does rapha.

I think Cypher is still not in the best shape. Rapha is top contender obviously. But I would like to see av3k taking 1st place
P.S. And Cooller should perform either good even without much of training
