What a day!
Day 3 kicked off with Team Digital Chaos (DC) taking on Virtus.Pro to secure a spot in the finals. In a ‘best of three’ series, DC won the first two rounds and easily knocked out Virtus.Pro 2-0, easing into the grand finals.
The next fixture saw a strenuous battle between two Chinese teams, Team Newbee and Wings Gaming in a ‘best of three’ series. Team Newbee comfortably claimed victory in the first round. But as both teams ventured into the second, Wings Gaming made a remarkable comeback and gave Newbee a wake up call. Ultimately, Newbee kept their winning-streak going as they beat Wings Gaming and made it to the grand finals.
Inevitably, Digital Chaos and Team Newbee faced each other at the long-awaited grand finals in a ‘best of five’ series. Team Newbee, fresh from the previous victory, kept the momentum going as they defeated Digital Chaos in the first round.
However, Digital Chaos turned the tables in the second round and levelled the score 1-1. Team Newbee was not going to let them have it, they retaliated in the third round and got back ahead in the series (2-1).
In the fourth game, things got heated up and the crowd went wild as both teams appeared relentless in the fight. Digital Chaos’ Resolution stole the attention as he adeptly dominated the game with his ‘Slark’. Digital Chaos won the round and brought the score to 2-2.
Needless to say, the fifth round was a do-or-die fist fight between the two. With the crowd roaring and atmosphere chill and tense, we watched on as Digital Chaos completely demolished Team Newbee and went home with the much coveted trophy.
