Best IEM Rio Major Pick’Em Predictions<\/h2>\n

The IEM Rio Major 2022 Viewer Pass features a host of rewards to acquire. (Picture: Valve)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
You will need to get five correct Pick’Em predictions in the Challengers stage and five in the Legends stage. Then, for the Champions stage of the IEM Rio Major 2022, you will need two correct predictions in the quarterfinals, one in the semifinals, and one in the Grand Final.<\/p>\n
This is not an easy task, and even some CS:GO esports analysts couldn’t get their Diamond Coin in past Majors, as upsets happen. While we don’t guarantee success, we have a stellar track record, getting the Diamond Coin and maximum rewards for Stockholm, and missing out with one prediction for Antwerp.<\/p>\n
IEM Rio Major Champions Pick’Em Predictions:<\/h3>\n

As you can see from the image above, we’ve secured the Gold coin, with the only task left to unlock it being making Pick’Em Predictions for the Champions stage.<\/p>\n
This is where things get super tricky, and most of the time, CS:GO fans lose out on the Diamond coin. You must make two correct predictions for the Quarter-Finals, one for the Semifinals and one for the Grand Finals.<\/p>\n
Check out our IEM Rio Major Champions stage Pick’Em Predictions in the image below.<\/p>\n

Our Pick’Em predictions are set for the Champions stage. (Picture: Valve)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
As you can see, we went with Na’Vi to win the tournament, as s1mple is difficult to bet against. The x-factor here is that FURIA could pull off an upset in front of the Brazillian crowd. We do think Outsiders will beat Fnatic and then lose to Cloud9.<\/p>\n
It is, however, important to note that this is the most difficult stage for IEM Rio Major 2022 Pick’Em predictions, and we’ve already seen quite a few upsets in both previous stages. Ultimately, you can go with our predictions or your gut feelings. They both have the same chance of being correct.<\/p>\n
IEM Rio Major Legends Pick’Em Predictions:<\/h3>\n
\"IEM
We managed to make it past the Challengers stage with five correct Pick’Em predictions. (Picture: Valve)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
The Legends stage runs from 5th to 8th November 2022, and you will need to get five correct predictions. CS:GO esports fans can pick a team to go 3-0 and a team to go 0-3. Then, you also need to pick which seven teams you think will make it to the Champions stage.<\/p>\n
For our 3-0, we went with a relatively safe pick of FaZe Clan, currently ranked 1st in the world. Na’Vi is a good second choice. However, we know Na’Vi sometimes takes some time to warm up. For our 0-3, we went with Sprout Esports. Sorry, Sprout fans!<\/p>\n
