EU RMR A finished as it started, with no surprises. Well, maybe some.

Last time on Dragon Ba- sorry we mean RMR A, we saw the obvious names win, and honestly, that didn’t change much. NAVI, FaZe, MOUZ, and Vitality made it through with relatively little effort, with their only losses being against one another. Cloud9 did go on a redemption run since last time, rebounding from their opener to go 3-1. But that’s it for interesting big team news.

Fortunately for us, and everyone else, some teams did the impossible.

GamerLegion, despite a 0-2 start, showed the grind that got them to the Major Final not so long ago. They went on a four-game win streak against some good teams, and Falcons, to qualify for the Major. You read that right: four games, as GL had to play BetBoom in a 3-2 decider for the final spot. We’re unsure if that’s the best system, but we have no better ideas.

Not everyone can be surprisingly good, though.

The other team to do the impossible was Falcons, mostly because they were impossibly bad. Their run was off to a solid start, beating ECLOT (who finished with a better record than them) and taking FaZe to OT. But anyone who watched that FaZe game could tell you it didn’t look good, and we saw that in their next match against SAW. Because they didn’t just lose, they got spanked, with s1mple failing to make an impact of any kind.

That loss set them up for the previously mentioned loss to GamerLegion. Which, in fairness, was a 2-1, but one of those where they just won their pick and lacked bite on the other maps.

It’s not much of a surprise that this is the end of this Falcons roster… speaking of which
