Team Vitality holds a clear edge entering this best-of-seven lower-bracket series, buoyed by superior recent form and a roster anchored by star player zen alongside ExoTiiK and stizzy. Vitality swept Wildcard in group play, split results with top European sides like Karmine Corp, and posted strong win rates over the past month while demonstrating late-game composure. Ninjas in Pyjamas arrive with more variable results, including a sweep of TSM but losses to stronger opponents, and sit lower in current rankings. Past head-to-head series have been tight, yet Vitality’s depth, consistent execution, and experience in high-stakes RLCS events give them the primary advantage in this Paris Major playoff setting.
