To the summit!

We'll quickly cover Flashpoint for you, but we're aware we've been doing that a lot lately and we want to give NA some love.

mousesports are looking goooooood. They picked up another 2-0 as they convincingly dealt with G2. frozen and ropz looked sharp, and Bymas is growing into the role - and his Twitter game is fire too.

They will face NiP in the final, as they won a grueller in the other semi-final.

The rest of it is all placement matches - all your useful info is here.

In NA though, it's been kinda weird. The big story is that Evil Geniuses have been horrific. "The MICHU experiment hasn't worked" was our first thought, but... it's really not his fault. He's played alright - while stanislaw and Brehze have not.

Maybe tarik was more important than we all thought.

Bad News Bears have kinda killed all the hype on themselves too, as they ended up bottom of a group with EXTREMUM in it. At least there's some normality in the upper bracket, as both Liquid and FURIA made it there.

We'd love to tell you the result of the O PLANO vs paiN match, which is a lowkey banger, but it'll finish about three hours before you get sent this, and we have things to do tomorrow. Here's a link to check it.

We're excited by that game though, because it's a clash for the 2nd best team in Brazil, unofficially. We like paiN - biguzera is a monster and saffee has been on a killing spree (he even went massively positive as they got smashed by Liquid), but O PLANO are the people's champs.

Similarly, when we went to bed, EXTREMUM were losing to Extra Salt, so we assume it finished that way. Given EXTREMUM have been in some pretty dire straits recently, that seems to be the logical conclusion.

Extra Salt are still pretty good, too. They ran FURIA really close, and it's exciting if you're an NA fan. If you're an Australian fan, though...
