Spirit gewinnt
Final: 100 Thieves 1-2 Spirit. Our pick Spirit was correct. The match supports the conservative cap: Spirit won, but the series was volatile enough that the earlier premium-favorite framing would have been too high.

Revised down from 62%. Spirit retain the strongest baseline class edge in the slate and opened with a BO3 win over OG, but our prior 75% Spirit number was poorly calibrated for this online environment, and our Falcons 66% miss against 100 Thieves materially confirms 100 Thieves have a live upset path. 100 Thieves’ later volatility keeps Spirit as the pick, but not at strong confidence.
Match is online. Spirit’s three-month profile includes repeated elite wins, while 100 Thieves’ current form is unstable despite high individual ceiling from device/rain-side experience. Online form volatility receives extra weight here.
Spirit should still handle qualification pressure better on baseline class and structure, but 100 Thieves are dangerous because they already punished an elite favorite in this event. The pick is conservative favorite-lean rather than a premium favorite call.
