FISSURE Playground 2 recap
Look, HLTV, we didn’t want to do this. We really didn’t. But we’re going to have to file a lawsuit.
It’s our job to throw shade, not yours.
Team Liquid are 0-2 in the Swiss system at FISSURE Playground - and when you get to the next story this will all make sense - after losing the ‘dead term derby’ as dubbed by the funny guys at HLTV. You’re not meant to be funny, lads. Leave it to us and we’ll avoid doing a ranking system.
They lost to GamerLegion (who as you just found out, are also a dead team) to drop into the 0-2 bracket. Kursy, hilariously, went crazy on map one in a 16-1 win.
They’re joined by Virtus.pro, who have once again been embarrassing. electroNic was a problem.
He was not the problem.
They lost to Astralis, which is appalling. Staehr dropped a 1.66 rating against them. Give it up lads. Jame is cooking on PARIVISION. Get him back and end this rubbish.
Lynn Vision are also 0-2, but they lost to G2 and The MongolZ, which is completely fair enough. HEROIC’s patchy form continues to plague them, as they dropped into the 0-2 bracket after losing to paiN and Legacy.
Not good.
At the other end, in the 2-0’s, it’s exactly the teams you’d expect. jcobbb and rain had a metaphorical fist fight for survival on the team (again, more on that later) as they both went bananas against 3DMAX to put them within one game of playoffs.
Aurora moved to 2-0 over TYLOO, which is encouraging - we’re sick of seeing Aurora not be as good as they can be, and this sort of event is one they absolutely have to do well in. Falcons, unsurprisingly, breezed to a 2-0, also.
FURIA swept G2 to put themselves in pole position for playoffs and continue their impressive run. It turns out adding CIS AWPers works for everyone.
Everyone else is some sort of 1-1. Obviously. That’s how Swiss system works.
Legacy got an eye-catching win over HEROIC, and weren’t completely blown back by Falcons. They might be decent. One to watch, at least.
Tomorrow’s best games are HEROIC vs. Liquid for elimination, yummy, and Falcons vs. FaZe for playoffs. Any time we get to watch NiKo vs. karrigan, we will be there.
We will absolutely be there.
