Losers Round 1
Lotac vs Signify
Losing from the first game and the fourth game, Lotac goes head to head with Signify and our Malaysian representing team won this round, taking them to the next round against PnX|Indomitus for Day 2 match. Winner of that round will be put against Alpha Red subsequently. It’s still not the end for team Lotac as if they win through the Losers Pool, they would still have a chance to be in the finals again, and looking at the pattern of the competition, things are actually getting pretty interesting.
Boom ID vs Flash Gaming
Losing from the second and third game of the day, Boom ID takes on Flash Gaming and emerges as a winner. This puts them into the next challenge against team X for Day 2 event. The winning team then will subsequently be competing with yG.
Pokdepinion: Looking at the current trend, it looks like there is a chance for Geek Fam and Lotac both be in the finals and dominate the first and second place. The finals game will be totally worth watching if that happens, of course! This is only getting more and more interesting now.
