Betting Prediction – EDward Gaming or Paper Rex?
There’s no need to beat around the bush with our predictions as the winner is ultimately determined in a Grand Final match between EDward Gaming and Paper Rex.
Let’s take a look at both teams:
- Paper Rex – after falling to EDward Gaming at VALORANT Champions 2024 to finish 9-12th, Paper Rex has been relatively quiet following a respectable season. However, at the VALORANT Radiant Asia Invitational, Paper Rex took down EDward Gaming and earned an impressive win over the best teams in Asia.
- EDward Gaming – your defending VALORANT World Champions, EDward Gaming has fans concerned. Indeed, after finishing 7-8th at the VALORANT Radiant Asia Invitational, there are concerns over the legitimacy of this roster. Yet, considering that both of their losses came to teams that finished in the Grand Final, perhaps EDward is still warming up.
Overall, we’d side with Paper Rex in the BO5 Grand Final.
