The International 2026 Predictions... Who Will Make It? | Not For Broadcast Ep.68

Cap and SVG break down every TI regional qualifier as the South American bracket gets underway, with LGD and Playtime forced to fight over a single spot. This week on Not For Broadcast, Cap and SVG run through all four TI qualifier regions ahead of broadcasting the SA qualifiers live. South America may only offer one spot, but it's stacked: LGD, Playtime, Amaru Gaming, and Team Nemesis all have cases to make it through. Europe gets four spots, with Parivision and Team Spirit as the locks and Na`Vi, Virtus.Pro, and Nigma Galaxy scrapping for what's left. China sends two teams, with Vici Gaming as the safe pick and a wide-open bracket featuring Team Refuser, Game Master, and the Yakutou Brothers for the second slot. SEA rounds things out with REKONIX, OG, and the Grind Back squad of 23Savage, Nikko, Q, and Oli. Plus: a first voicemail from the Pub Confessional, and a challenge is issued.
