BLAST Showdown NA se je uvrstil v brazilski polfinale

BLAST Premier Fall Showdown North America quarter-finals have come to an end, with Morski psi in Pretok in with a shot at qualifying for the BLAST Premier Fall Final 2022 after their surprising victories against kompleksnost in Zlobni genijiOz.

Joining them in the semi-finals are MIBR, who defeated their countrymen TeamOne in a closely-contested series, alongside Major-bound 00NACIJA, who had a slightly easier time against the Australians of VERTEX.

felps’ Fluxo got the better of Evil Geniuses

Po kompleksnost‘s surprise exit in the tournament’s opening match, it was up to Zlobni geniji to fly the North American flag. Vincent “ReBrehze⁠” Cayonte and company failed to do so, losing to a Pretok team that found success hard to come by in their time together so far. The Brazilians prevailed in overtime on Dust2 (19-17), before Zlobni geniji came back on Mirage (16-11) to force a decider. On Nuke, Vinicius “⁠Vsm⁠” moreira put up a 1.47 rating to close out the game and secure his team a semi-final berth.

The Showdown winners will secure a place at the Fall Final LAN event in Denmark, with the other open spot at the eight-team event going to the winner of the European Showdown.
