Leviatan entered the knockout stage warmed up, having fought their way through the Swiss Stage. However, that’s where their advantages end, as the VCT Americas squad now have to face one of the tournament’s top dogs, who’ve shown incredible form in Stage 1.
Despite being unproven in the current meta, as they’ve not played a game since VCT Pacific Stage 1, Paper Rex have shown before that they should do fine in the current state of the game. And their deep map pool and flexibility, on top of a plethora of experience, make them a team that is hard to fade.

Paper Rex’s Chance to Shine
Paper Rex had a rough start to Stage 1, but they got their wheels spinning towards the end and made a run for the VCT Pacific Stage 1 trophy.
This was largely due to the meta shift, which seems to suit PR and how they like to play. With Neon being a less powerful agent, which affected many teams, Paper Rex should be in a much better spot, as they’ve not really been playing the agent or relying on picking Neon.
Widely considered as one of the top teams in the world, the expectations put on Paper Rex are high. And they’ve yet to show anything that would make anyone doubt them.

Leviatan Have More to Show
Leviatan made it through the VALORANT Masters London Swiss Stage with a perfect record. They bested Global Esports 2-1 and added another relatively close victory against NRG in the second round.
Despite reaching the playoffs, Leviatan haven’t beaten any great teams so far; although they’ve had a very promising run in VCT Americas Stage 1, where they bested FURIA, MiBR, and G2 Esports.
Like Paper Rex, Leviatan have not been harmed by the meta shift, as they have a deep enough agent pool to avoid picking Neon. One issue with Leviatan is that they’re not very flexible and have a very rigid way of playing the game. On the other side, their firepower is good enough to compensate for that most of the time.

Verdict
It is very hard to go against Paper Rex, who should be in conversation as one of the strongest teams in the world. However, Leviatan are no pushovers either.
They had a fairly easy run through the Swiss Stage, where they got exposed a couple of times for the lack of flexibility. However, Leviatan have a scary amount of firepower, and if they can get the ball rolling early, they can do damage.
This is Paper Rex’s game to lose, but Leviatan are more than capable of taking a map.
