Both teams won their opening games of the tournament, but it is fair to say that MIBR impressed more. Or, better said, Team Heretics impressed less, having struggled against AG.AL, whom Heretics were expected to run over.
MIBR, on the other side, ran over Global Esports, suggesting they’re in excellent shape and more than ready to challenge the reigning VCT EMEA champions.
- MIBR have shown good form
- Team Heretics have been struggling of late
- MIBR are expected to dominate

MIBR Are Trending Up
MIBR haven’t had the best split so far, having failed to qualify for Masters London, after narrowly missing a ticket for Santiago earlier in the season.
However, despite the underwhelming fifth-sixth place finish in Americas Stage 1, MIBR found more momentum in the Esports World Cup qualifiers, where they defeated KRU Esports and Leviatan, both with clean sweeps.
The Americas squad kept their wheels spinning for the Esports World Cup, and crushed Global Esports (2-0) in the first round of Group D, with 13-2 on Lotus and 13-3 on Haven.
It was one of MIBR’s best performances of the season and a good indication that they can deliver against strong teams. However, Global Esports did not play well on the day, so it is fair to say that MIBR have more to prove.

Team Heretics Are In Iffy Shape
Team Heretics won VCT EMEA Stage 1 and put themselves under the spotlight as one of the strongest teams in the world. They, however, did not need long to lose that tag, having struggled to perform in Masters London, where Heretics crashed out in seventh-eighth place.
Things have yet to improve for the reigning EMEA champions, who needed to dig deep to get past AG.AL in the first round of the Esports World Cup group stage. On the day, Heretics edged past AG.AL on Haven (13-11), lost Ascent (8-13), and closed the series out with 13-7 on Lotus.
Wo0t had a solid showing on the day, posting 1.25 rating, however, Koshmaras, benjyfishy, and Boo all underperformed, posting a sub 1.00 rating. The trio will need to step up for Heretics to find any success in France, but given Heretics’ recent form, that seems unlikely.
| Date | Event | Opponent | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| July 3 | EWC 2026 | AG.AL | 2-1 (W) |
| June 14 | VALORANT Masters London 2026 | Leviatan | 1-2 (L) |
| June 12 | VALORANT Masters London 2026 | Team Vitality | 0-2 (L) |
| May 17 | VCT EMEA Stage 1 | Team Vitality | 3-2 (W) |
| May 16 | VCT EMEA Stage 1 | FUT Esports | 3-1 (W) |

Verdict
Team Heretics appear stronger on paper, having won VCT EMEA Stage 1. However, they’ve not looked great since and even that’s an understatement.
The early elimination from VALORANT Masters London, followed by a shaky performance against AG.AL in the first round of the Esports World Cup group stage are worrying and indicate that Heretics might have lost their momentum.
Meanwhile, MIBR are trending in the opposite direction, having now accumulated three straight victories. Form-wise, MIBR are in a better shape, and they have the individual quality to challenge anyone, including the shaky Heretics.
