Valorant Champions Playoffs Day 5 Schedule
Day 5 will be the first day of Champions that will be crowdless. Los Angeles will have severe weather problems, and there will be no live audience. Everyone that has a ticket for the day will be refunded, and this status will probably stay until the weather normalizes.
Here's the schedule for the Playoffs Day 5 games:
- LOUD vs EDward Gaming - 9:00 PM CEST / 12:00 PM PT / 3:00 PM ET
- DRX vs Fnatic - 11:00 PM CEST / 2:00 PM PT / 5:00 PM ET
Valorant Champions Playoffs Day 5 Expectations & Head to Heads
LOUD vs EDward Gaming Expectations
The Brazilians started off the event quite slowly, and the public's expectations got lower for their final placement at this year's Champions. The deeper we went into the event the better LOUD became, and they've already secured a top 6 finish.
EDG on the other hand is the team that surprised everyone at Masters Tokyo and continues to do so in Los Angeles as well. Kang Kang is a beast, and as long as his hand is on fire, EDG's confidence stays high.
There is no doubt that this matchup will be close, with LOUD having the slight upper hand over EDG. Both teams can outperform themselves and take the W.

DRX vs Fnatic Expectations
The team from the "One Team Region" *insert drama*, even said themselves that they were expecting their win streak to end eventually. Regardless of the lost game vs LOUD, Fnatic are still on top in terms of the Title Expectations, and this lower-bracket journey won't change anything.
DRX are the clear underdogs in this one, and their recent bad performance against EG showed that they might not have what it takes to go forward in the event. There is room for upsets and excitement, but the general public opinion is that Fnatic will roll past anyone in the lower bracket up until they reach the Grand Finals.
Boaster is more than ready for this one. Bring it on.
