Rise of Legion Kolkata: LAN Playoffs Preview
We are one day away from The Esports Club's inaugural CS2 LAN tournament, the Rise of Legion Kolkata's LAN Playoffs. The LAN Playoffs will be taking place at Raajkutir, Kolkata with the top four teams ready to battle it out for the INR 2 lakh prize pool.
Semi-final 1 - Team NPC vs ROG Academy 10:30 AM (BO1)
SpawN and co.'s Team NPC survived a scare against Hari Om Esports in the quarter-finals and had Hari Om managed to hold on, NPC wouldn't even had been in Kolkata for the LAN. NPC though did not give up and made sure they got that quarter-final win which now sees them take on ROG Academy in the first semi-final.
ROG Academy come into the semis after having seen off Team Executables and Khatarnaak in the online qualifiers before taking down Airavata (AVT) Esports in the quarter-finals with relative ease. Given the form and fire power at disposal for both the teams, the first semi-final should be a close one with plenty of action.

Semi-final 2 - Airavata Esports vs Usual Suspects 12:30 PM (BO1)
While they took down Re-Wonation in a comprehensive manner in the online qualifiers, AVT did fall to ROG Academy in the quarter-finals, but with Mystic Gaming not being able to make it to the LAN Playoffs, AVT get a spot in the semis.
AVT will be facing Usual Suspects who ran through Revenge Esports CS2 in their opening game and saw off a KharghaR5 challenge before getting a bye in the quarter finals against 2EZ Gaming.
One might say, both teams have made it to the semi-finals through some fortunate incidents but on the LAN stage, its all to play for.
