Natus Vincere and Leviatán Esports will play in the semifinals of the Omega bracket at VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo. Both teams show a confident game, coupled with cool shooting and strong ideas.
However, there is a feeling that the "Born to Win" is still difficult to stop, because in the last match the team managed to exceed expectations and tear Team Secret apart.
In turn, Leviatán Esports also surprised with two strong victories, but at the same time, the team gives up slack, which results in equal cards and shaky situations.
Therefore, here I would take a closer look at the victory of Natus Vincere, which for me personally now looks like one of the favorites of its bracket.

The first team of the European ranking managed to light up in the off-season, where it was expected to win the G-Loot VALORANT Clash - Grand Finals. However, it should be noted that the Born to Win did not look so bright there, since they almost lost in the grand final to Parla Esports.
However, at the start of VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo, Natus Vincere is doing great so far, as the team managed to outplay KRÜ Esports and Team Secret.

The first team of the Latin American rating won Valorant LATAM Gods and FITCHIN The Final Series back in the off-season, where they did not lose at all and gradually developed confidence.
As for the start of the VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: LOCK//IN São Paulo, here the Latin American team managed to get two victories over ZETA DIVISION and Team Vitality.

Prediction for the match Natus Vincere — Leviatán Esports
The combination of default peaks and the choice of a conditional Cypher looks quite interesting. In addition, there are no questions for Natus Vincere regarding shooting. In turn, the Latin American team has already gone far, but there is no certainty from the game that Leviatán Esports can jump above their heads. Therefore, in this case, I would recommend betting on the victory of the Natus Vincere team.
