Dust2 India - 1XBET Masters 14: Preview
After True Rippers and Victores Sumus' qualification through the Dust2 India - 1XBET Open Qualifier 28, we have all four teams confirmed for the Dust2 India - 1XBET Masters 14, with a team from Pakistan in the Masters for the first-time ever.
With the action kicking off on September 22, 2024 at 11:00 IST, here's a preview of the matches lined up ahead for us. One semi-final and the Grand Final will be streamed live on Dust2 India's Twitch channel.
Semi-Final 1 - 
st4rboys vs 
Victores Sumus
Pakistan's st4rboys were the first to make it to the Masters 14, after a clean run through the Dust2 India - 1XBET Open Qualifier 27. After getting a walkover in their opening two games against The_A_Team_ZR and Carnival Gaming, st4rboys faced Victores Sumus itself in the Round 3 game, where the Pakistani squad picked up a 16-13 overtime win on Dust2.
Victores Sumus, who failed to make it through the Open Qualifier 27, battled it out against Carnival Gaming and DontPeeKkk in Open Qualifier 28 and will not only look to come out ahead in this India - Pakistan clash but also extract revenge for the loss in Open Qualifier 27.

Semi-Final 2 - Gods Reign vs True Rippers
The second semi-final is the clash of two of the country's biggest teams, Gods Reign and True Rippers. Gods Reign started their campaign in Open Qualifier 27 with a big 13-5 win against LateNighTers on Ancient before being pushed to double overtime by DontPeeKkk in their Round 3 game, which they won 19-17 on Mirage.
Gods Reign will be up against the local rivals, True Rippers, who recently made multiple changes to their squad. True Rippers have brought back Mcg!LLzZz for Crazy_Gamer while also replacing DayMake with Malaysian player Anasasis. The new team made their official debut in the Open Qualifier 28, taking down ROG Academy and LateNighTers on their way to the Masters 14.
Gods Reign will be playing the Masters 14 with 1nhuman in place of f1redup, with the latter not being available for the event.
