You’d be forgiven for forgetting there’s a tournament going on.

It is one of those weird BLAST ones where nobody really goes out and OG are there, so it’s reasonable for you to not really care.

You should care about G2 and Team Liquid, though.

After all that sh–ttalking Twistzz did about cadiaN, you might be surprised to learn that… he might have had a point. Under his stewardship, TL took down VP and cut down high-flying NAVI to book a spot in the Group D final.

G2 moved past both NIP and FaZe to do the same in Group C, with malbsMd going sicko mode on map three against FaZe, and huNter- looking back in tip-top shape. NIP are still hanging around, though, after knocking ‘out’ Cloud9.

Group B had potential to be super spicy with the Astralis/Falcons/Vitality love triangle, but it turns out Vitality are still the best team of the three. Astralis glided past Falcons in the first round, but play them again for the chance to play Falcons.

Team Spirit. Still good. At least better than OG and HEROIC, whom they beat, and Complexity, who lost to HEROIC without degster (sAw stood in) and still beat OG.

donk’s on a 1.51 so far. m0NESY on a 1.48. Everything is in order.

This leg of the BLAST Cinematic Universe ends on Sunday with 5-6th place deciders which is the difference between Fall Finals and Fall Showdown. Quite high profile games that are cheapened by them being 5-6th place deciders.
