The teams MOUZ and Team Spirit got their first wins in the Legends stage at IEM Rio Major 2022. According to the results of the first round, they managed to outplay Team Liquid (16:2) and Bad News Eagles (16:8), respectively. Now the teams have to prepare for the next round, which will take place in a few hours.
Team Spirit - Bad News Eagles
The starting duel of the Legends stage took place on the Ancient map. But if the starting segment was left for the "dragons", then the two won force-rounds were returned to the Bad News Eagles game. As a result, the Kosovars got a minimal victory in the first half and went to prepare their defense - 8:7. However, after the switchover, rigoN and the company failed to show good defense, as well as Team Spirit showed a confident game and quickly got to victory — 16:8.
MOUZ—Team Liquid
A parallel meeting took place on the Inferno map. However, here the spectators did not see any struggle, because the "mice" very quickly seized the initiative on the server and immediately approached the rout - 13:2. After the change of sides, the North American team was no longer able to get involved in the fight, just as MOUZ reached the first victory in the “legends” without any problems — 16:2.
