Malaysian star almost inflicts an upset
Starting off on the T-side of Anubis, Movistar Riders briefly showed the how strong the T-side of the map is by going 6-1 up early after which Rare Atom came back to finish the half 8-7 with a 6 round win streak.
The 2nd half saw both teams stepping up, trading rounds and resetting each other's economies multiple times. Although Movistar Riders looked to walk away with a win at 15-12 with 3 match points in hand, Rare Atom held their end on the CT-side on a map which heavily favors the T-side, forcing the match into overtime.
Movistar Riders however displayed superior map control and routing as they went on to win overtime 19:16 dropping just a single round. JamYoung went quiet towards the end after propelling Rate Atom up until then.
Everyone from Movistar Riders came through displaying individual brilliance with sausol going on courageous lurks on both sides, keeping his team aware of happenings all over the map.
Rate Atom will face VERTEX in the lower bracket and Movistar Riders will go up against Bad News Eagles in the winners bracket.
