Under the leadership of draken and Lekr0, Johnny Speeds became the champions of the European Pro League Season 18: Division 2, earning $5,000 by defeating Revenant, led by NBK, 2-1 in the tournament final.
For the current lineup, this victory is not their first; earlier they had won two local tournaments at the beginning of June, namely the Svenska Elitserien Spring 2024 and the SubZero E-Games 2024, collectively earning $18,350. The first map of the final was Ancient, chosen by Revenant, where they showcased an excellent attack and finished the game with a dominant score of 13-3. The second map was Mirage, chosen by Johnny Speeds, where Revenant initially had no issues and led the score, but Johnny Speeds managed to come back and push the game to Anubis. There, Johnny Speeds also took the initiative and won with a score of 13-7.
Draken was named the best player of the tournament, finishing with a notably high rating of 7.1. It's noteworthy that Johnny Speeds outplayed Revenant in the upper bracket final and managed to beat them again this time, but now 2-1.
While most teams are on break and there are no major tournaments, Johnny Speeds is gearing up for the new season, aiming to climb the Valve rankings to secure a coveted spot in the qualifiers for the Perfect World Shanghai Major 2024. This breakthrough might help the team find an organization, as they are currently without one.
