Team Liquid vs Top Esports First Stand 2025: Head-to-head, prediction, and results
Team Liquid and Top Esports previously faced off at MSI 2024, where the Chinese team stomped the LTA representatives in a 3-0 victory.
This time around, Top Esports are coming into this matchup with a slightly different look as Kanavi and Crisp will be in the jungle and support roles, respectively, instead of Tian and Meiko.
These changes don’t really shift the expected outcome of this matchup into Team Liquid’s favor, as they are still the underdogs in terms of pure firepower and overall gameplay.
Team Liquid are also notorious for having players with small champion pools, such as APA, which can be heavily exploited in the fearless draft system employed in First Stand. The LTA champions do have a chance to take a game, but they will have to perform a miracle to secure a series win.
Prediction: Top Esports wins the series 2-1
Expected rosters
