100 Thieves vs T1 Match Analysis

We have two very high-profile teams butting heads this early into the tournament. One is currently in top form without any international VCT titles, while the other is geared with proven VCT winners.

100 Thieves’ recent form should not be a question. They’ve won the Esports World Cup – one of the biggest tournaments of the year – then returned to the Americas to claim the Stage 2 trophy. They are in prime form heading into the biggest Valorant tournament of the year, with all of their players shooting on all fronts.

If you want to place an outright tournament winner bet, taking 100 Thieves on GGBET will put you in good hands.

On the other hand, T1 have not had the greatest season so far. The team was mixing and matching their rosters, swapping stax and DH back-and-forth. T1 generally do well regionally, but have shown poor results internationally. The only global event they qualified for was VCT Masters Santiago 2026, and they even bombed out in 9th – 10th place at the tournament.

Despite the lack of international VCT appearances this year, T1 barely made it to VCT Champions 2026 by a miraculous top three finish at the most recent VCT Pacific Stage 2. And to be completely honest, they didn’t really beat any good teams on their road there. They just won three back-to-back Korean derby against struggling teams.

So, if we’re looking at recent form and yearly results, 100 Thieves are clearly the stronger team heading into this match.

100 Thieves vs T1 Betting Picks and Predictions

If we’re thinking about who’ll win this series outright, my choice is pretty clear. I’m fairly confident 100 Thieves will take the win here, especially when they’re the favorites to win VCT Champions outright. I would recommend taking them to beat T1, even at 1.41 odds on GGBET.

You can always go for -1.5 maps for more value, but T1 are a very experienced team who are capable of stealing a map away from anyone. So, I’m not too sure on 100T getting a clean sweep, as T1 can certainly make it close.
