VCT 2022 Masters Copenhagen is coming to an end. For two weeks, we have analyzed all the matches of the tournament together, and today we will talk about the last of them. Representatives of FunPlus Phoenix Europe will compete with participants from Singapore Paper Rex for the right to hold the title of champion. Previously, the teams have not met each other, and today they will have to determine the strongest in the bo5 format.
FunPlus Phoenix shape
In the last match of the Losers finals, I talked in detail about the team, so today we will briefly go through the tournament path. The Phoenixes finished the group stage with a total score of 2-1, thanks to which they advanced to the playoffs, where, after a meeting with Fnatic, they were eliminated. Then SUYGETSU returned to the main line-up, and the band had a long winstreak. In some places, unexpected victories over DRX, Fnatic, Guild Esports, OpTic Gaming, led the players to the grand finals.

Paper Rex Shape
Representatives of the Pacific region began their performance at the VCT 2022 Masters Copenhagen right from the playoffs. The victory in the home qualifiers allowed them to bypass the group stage. The team easily coped with Guild Esports and Fnatic, and in the final of the upper bracket with OpTic Gaming, which secured a place for itself in the grand final. I would like to note that the Singaporean club is considered a newcomer to the professional scene, which does not prevent it from being the favorite of the summer tournament and the main contender for victory.

Match prediction
We are waiting for the last and main confrontation in the tournament. Both teams deserved to be in the grand final, although they came here in different ways. “Phoenixes” struggled to get through the loser, and their opponents easily passed through the upper bracket. I think the victory will go to the representatives of Singapore, who in the past matches were head and shoulders above the rest of the teams, but it's not worth writing off ANGE1 and the company that caught courage. I expect a beautiful final with a victory from the Singaporeans.
Outcome: victory for Paper Rex.
