Playoffs Day 1

Xtreme Gaming vs Team Liquid
The opening match of the first day of the playoff stage between Xtreme Gaming and Team Liquid promises to be a real battle of the giants. None of the teams has a clear advantage, as both teams have been playing consistently and extremely strong throughout the tournament. Xtreme Gaming are known for their aggressive tactics and have repeatedly surprised their opponents with unexpected pickups, while Team Liquid are renowned for their cool approach and exceptional team coordination.

Since neither team is a clear favourite, we can expect three maps in this match. A fierce battle is guaranteed, and this match will definitely be a highlight of the start of the playoffs.

Cloud9 vs Aurora
The match between Cloud9 and Aurora promises to be a tense confrontation. Although Cloud9 continue to show a stable game and are considered the favourites of this match, Aurora should not be underestimated. They have already shown that they can pleasantly surprise even the strongest opponents.

If Cloud9 continues to play at their level, they have a good chance of taking the series, but Aurora could turn the tide. They are known for their creative approach to hero selection and their ability to adapt to any situation. If Cloud9 gives up or makes a mistake, Aurora can take advantage of it and snatch the victory.

Team Falcons vs Tundra Esports
The meeting between Tundra Esports and Team Falcons promises to be a real test for both teams, especially considering their erratic play throughout the tournament. Neither team has been able to reach their usual form, which adds to the unpredictability of this confrontation. If you're a fan of unexpected upsets, comebacks, and risky strategies, this match is definitely worth your attention.

nouns vs Gaimin Gladiators
The match between nouns and Gaimin Gladiators promises to be interesting, but most people prefer GG. Although nouns surprised everyone by defeating Team Spirit, it will be extremely difficult to repeat this achievement against Gaimin Gladiators. Despite the instability in the game against G2 x iG, where GG almost lost control, they remain the favourites in this confrontation. If the Gaimin Gladiators can avoid critical mistakes, their experience and strength should help them take the series.
