i think you only get it if you pick a 2-0 correctly. i can't find a solid confirmation right now tho

On this site, you can use tokens earned from the BattlePass to predict who will win upcoming Pro Circuit Series. On each successful prediction, every token placed will earn 40 Battle Points (20 in the case of a tie)

right but there's an achievement for getting 50 "correct" predictions. i'm thinking this requires 2-0 results for the teams you selected in a bo2 setting. i just can't find anyone talking about that from a past tournament at the moment

ESL Birmingham was the first tournament you could predict, and neither it nor the Supermajor used a Bo2 format in the groups.

The 50 correct includes past tournaments but there's also one to just get 25 correct in the group stage.

Am I supposed to put in all my group stage predictions in at once or can I submit day 1 and then the rest later?

Also, I know we all had fun earlier at the expense of the new Team Secret uniforms, but now let's all have fun at the expense of their coach Sunbhie

The 25 correct achievement is for the ingame predictions: the multiple-choice things that pop up during pregame. Hope you have your remote desktop setups ready so you can do THAT from work.

Yeah, you get card packs at certain levels of the compendium (though you get 5 card packs at level one), and then you have to manually open them.
