Karmine Corp's commanding upper-bracket run, capped by a 2-0 sweep of FUT Esports in the Aug. 28 upper final, has positioned the French squad as the frontrunner in the VCT EMEA Stage 2 winner market. The double-elimination bracket keeps the race tight, with Team Liquid and FUT Esports still alive in the lower bracket and scheduled to clash Aug. 29 for the second grand-final berth. Both squads showed strong recent form through play-ins and playoffs, including FUT's earlier qualification push and Liquid's clean 2-0 elimination win. This structure, combined with best-of-three map volatility and the Aug. 30 best-of-five grand final in Barcelona, sustains competitive implied probabilities among the top contenders heading into the decisive weekend.
