By the end of September, we saw Vexed, LDLC White, Team Dignitas, Lions and SK Gaming earn a spot each to Fragbite Masters powered by Com Hem Season 5, while two more matches were this weekend. The first of the two later matches was FlipSid3 Tactics against the Swedes of Torpedo, where the Swedish squad managed to upset their Ukrainian-Russian opponent in the opening by winning Train with a 16-13 result. However, "F3" brought it back via a 16-10 win on Dust2, and finished it off with little tension by winning Inferno with a comfortable 16-5 result.
Torpedo: decent, tease, Awien, darti, atter
In the second match of the night, Copenhagen Wolves, with a new, all-Swedish lineup, took on the German side Touch The Crown. As in the aforementioned match, the Swedes narrowly won the first map, which was Cache, with a 16-14 result. The German opponent then brought it back by winning Cobblestone with 16-9. To end it all, all 30 rounds were play to settle Touch The Crown as winners on the finishing map, Mirage.
ttc: dukiii, am0, ayken, faker, alexRr
The last match of this qualifying stage was supposed to be between Bulgarian E-Frag and Swedish GreyFace. Unfortunately, E-Frag had to leave a default loss to their Swedish opponents, giving them what was supposed to be the final spot for the main tournament.
As soon as we could, we reached out to all of the teams who failed to advance from the final qualifier stage to see if they wanted play a best of three match, as a type of last chance qualifier. The teams who were quickest to accept this opportunity were Torpedo, BX3, London Conspiracy and the former Orbit team Orgless. These four teams will be playing for main tournament slots tonight.
BX3: cENTRYZ, KORN, paint, aNdz, DaY
Orgless: t3h f4rm3r, DeadFox, flash, NEY, Barcode
The matches above will be broadcasted, tonight with the glorious casting duon Matthew "Sadokist" Trivett and Henry "HenryG" Greer. Obivously, we're super pumped to welcome them to their first ever Fragbite Masters broadcast, and we invite you to do the same over at FragbiteLive.
