The third day at Skyesports Championship 2024 had 7 BO1s take place with Playoffs spots up for grabs as each team was looking to keep themselves alive at the Skyesports Championship 2024.We saw fightbacks, blowouts and upset on the third day in Mumbai.
Here's a quick recap of what happened and how the teams stand after Day 3 of the Skyesports Championship 2024.
Group A - The MongolZ falter again, Aurora unbeaten
Group A's action kicked off with Aurora taking an important win against ENCE in overtime. The MongolZ went down to BLEED which handed the Asian team their second loss in the event while ENCE bounced back with a convincing win against PARIVISION to keep themselves alive for a Playoffs spot.
The final game of the day saw Aurora hammer True Rippers, which confirmed them a Playoffs spot.
Group B - 3DMAX, Eternal Fire unstoppable, Revenant blown away
Group B got the third day going with 3DMAX easing past DMS before Eternal Fire continued their strong run in Mumbai as they put up a big win against AMKAL. The final game of Group B was 3DMAX hammering NBK-'s Revenant, with the French team locking in the first 13-0 of the tournament.
The Playoffs will see the top three team from each group move ahead with the group toppers locking in a direct semi-final spot while the other four teams (second and third placed teams from both groups) will battle it out in the two quarter-finals.
Group B has 3DMAX and Eternal Fire locked in for the Playoffs with AMKAL and DMS still in contention. Revenant's 0-13 loss means the Indian organisation were the first team to get knocked out from Playoffs contentions.
Group A has Aurora confirmed for the Playoffs with BLEED, ENCE, The MongolZ and PARIVISION all still in contention for the other two spots while True Rippers has an outside chance which is not in their hands anymore and will need other results to go their way. A wide open group with two out of the three spots still up for grabs, the final day of the group stages would be crucial for the Group A teams. True Rippers' loss to Aurora meant that the Indian team is all but out of contention for a playoffs spot.
To qualify for the Playoffs, True Rippers will need to hope that -
-
BLEED lose both the games to Aurora and PARIVISION
-
Aurora beats The MongolZ
-
ENCE and PARIVISION suffer big losses at the hands of True Rippers
Should these results go in True Rippers' favour, BLEED, The MongolZ, PARIVISION, ENCE and themselves will end with 6 points with round difference becoming the deciding factor.
