Skyesports Masters 2024 Day 6: Preview
We have reached the penultimate day of Skyesports Masters 2024 with four teams remaining in the event. There are three games lined up today with the lower bracket final kicking things off following which the upper bracket final will take place. To round out the day we have the consolidation final.
BIG vs OG
First up in the lower bracket final, we have OG taking on BIG, with the Germans as one of the tournament favourites following ENCE's shock elimination early on. Both teams started their Skyesports Masters 2024 campaign with a loss but have made the run through the lower bracket and are hoping to take it all the way through.
BIG started with a 1-2 loss against nafany's BetBoom before bouncing back in style against Indian representatives Gods Reign. BIG then reverse-swept FORZE to keep their Skyesports Masters 2024 campaign alive.
Like BIG, OG also started their campaign with a loss, and their loss came at the hands of Skyesports Grand Slam 2024 champions Aurora. OG stunned ENCE in the elimination game to knock gla1ve and co. out of the event before putting in a dominant performance against Ninjas in Pyjamas (NIP) to keep themselves afloat.
While BIG hold the advantage with a stronger core, OG will be hoping their talisman HeavyGod comes good once again.
Aurora vs BetBoom
The upper bracket final is the Russian derby, with Aurora set to take on BetBoom with the winner booking a direct spot in the Grand Final of Skyesports Masters 2024.
Following their Skyesports Grand Slam 2024 win, Aurora brought in r3salt shortly before the Masters 2024 and have been one of the most promising squads in the event. They started with a clean 2-0 win over OG before taking down FORZE in a similar manner which saw them book their spot in the upper bracket final.
Going up against Aurora will be BetBoom, who stunned BIG in their opening encounter and then dominated NIP on their way to the upper bracket final. While Aurora's recent form gives them a slight edge over BetBoom, both teams are almost evenly poised and we should be in for an action-packed match.
The winner will move into the Grand Final of the event but it is not all over for the loser as they will have another chance as they will drop to the consolidation final.
T.B.D vs T.B.D - Consolidation Final
The winner of the lower bracket final between BIG and OG will take on the loser of the upper bracket final between Aurora and BetBoom.
