Map 1: Mirage; Winner: Wildcard; Score: 13-11
Mirage was a risky pick given Wildcard had no prior experience of the map on LAN, but to everyone’s surprise, they were able to hold themselves despite getting off to a poor start. The first half saw Fnatic pull 7 rounds while Wildcard only managed 5 but the story soon changed once we got to the second half.
The second half had Fnatic make their way to an 11-8 scoreline and were on the verge of running away from the map when Wildcard found their footing and managed to put together a string of rounds to come back from the deficit and win the game with a 13-11 scoreline.
Despite blamef’s heroics, Sonic and JBa performed exceptionally for their side to pull the biggest upset given majority had Wildcards on their 0-3 Pick’Ems.
