That’s super wild because Luna1Odins, a VALORANT pro-player, technically has a flawless playoff bracket that predicts exactly the Top 4 at VALORANT Champions Paris. Literally perfect; it’s 100% accurate in every single match so far, which is absolutely bonkers considering sometimes these esports are downright unpredictable. The bracket was leaked on the Internet three days before the actual start of the playoffs, until the 22nd of September, which means this is definitely not just some sort of wild guess, um, the person must really know what they are talking about.
Luna’s predictions for the latter part of the playoffs are poetic: NRG topples FNATIC, DRX beat Paper Rex, DRX over FNATIC from the lower, then DRX over NRG in the grand finals. It’s crazy stuff that actually puts DRX as the team to win the entire tournament.
Did you notice how this bracket just blew the roof off the VALORANT community? I mean, people are losing their minds in the replies. A player going by Kc/Prx Noeye said: “I’m top 2% with messed up pickem how bad are y’all pickem,” which is basically exactly how I feel. My bracket has been rubbish since maybe day two. Someone else replied, “Too much experience.” That’s probably right; Luna really knows these teams like the back of her hand.
Some other players outright say that they do not agree. One went on to say: “No shot” this bracket stays perfect. Akshay would say, “And there won’t be anyone with perfect pickems after the next match,” followed by a laughing emoji. Ambros 63 was brutal with his reply: “Out of 4 games here, 3 are wrong, so no I don’t think it will stay intact.” Ouch!
Meanwhile, the DRX pick is also coming under a lot of heat. Let’s just say Josue calling that run “ambitious” was putting it mildly. No SC0PE, on the other hand, says, “Drx look the strongest but nrg will win this champs trust,” so definitely split opinions on that one.
Interestingly though, apparently, Luna isn’t the only one with a perfect playoff bracket in play. According to Xuthentic, “A couple ppl on vlr has a perfect playoff bracket still. One has prx winning, another has nrg.” So, apparently, there are a handful of bracket wizards. Supet6 brought up the name of another player, Ekocantclutch, who also has perfect pickems with FNATIC beating NRG while still having DRX win it all.
There is a lot of debate surrounding the FNATIC vs. NRG game. Reaper just said: “That bracket is chalked fnatic are slamming nrg all due respect,” which is strong language, in a way. Then Akash Rawat came through with, “Yeah fnatic ain’t going that easily with Kaajak and Alfa playing like they are on demon time.” You also have players like 痛生愛 saying, “Would make me very happy, I don’t to see Fnatic win at all,” so there is a very real vibe of team loyalty within the comments.
Funny is how many of the comments are hype comments, because everybody knows Luna. Multiple users have said “THATS MY TEAMMATE,” and “THATS OOMFIE,” which is just so heartwarming. Even Luna herself jumped into the comments and clarified a few things with one of the users.
There is an insane amount of pressure on Luna right now. Imagine a perfect bracket this late in a tournament, and the world’s eyes are glued on you to see if you can extend it any further. Victor Chavez said: “If nrg and drx win tomorrow I’m gonna kms,” which is ratings, but also the mood.
This one single perfect bracket has already generated extreme engagement. People are so invested; they’re arguing about their teams; they’re defending their favorites; they’re questioning the predictions-that’s what makes following esports so much fun. This is what the community gets passionate about.
And you know what’s so crazy? Even if it doesn’t stay intact, it’s a loud and proud achievement to go this far with perfect predictions. Like, professional VALORANT, where any team can upset any other team any day. So, somebody correctly predicted every-playoff match right up Top 4, which is nuts if you really think about it.
Next matches are going to be tense to watch and not only for the competing teams but everyone following bracket predictions as well. Do they keep the momentum and keep on going with the Luna perfect strike? Could DRX actually pull off the championship run? Or will FNATIC throw a wrench into all of that and prove everyone wrong? So many questions, but at least we’re gonna get answers real soon.
That’s saying a lot about how big the VALORANT esports has gotten. People don’t just watch games anymore-they’re highly engaged with the predictions themselves, the brackets, and just narratives about competitions. It used to be about who’s playing; now it’s all about who’s seen it.
Whatever happens with the remainder of the tournament, Luna1Odins has already put a whole lot more on the radar for everyone keeping up. The perfect bracket story just way too good-whether or not it remains perfect-the community will be talking for ages on this.
G2 and other top esports organizations are watching closely as these tournaments unfold. The gaming landscape continues to evolve with major platforms like PlayStation and Xbox supporting competitive gaming communities worldwide.
