Apeks is the winner of ESEA Advanced Season 43 Europe
4101Came to the end of ESEA Advanced Season 43 Europe. As part of the championship, which was held online from October 24 to December 15, more than 100 teams from Europe and the CIS fought for a total prize pool of $20,300, as well as two tickets to the ESL Challenger League Season 44: Europe for the finalists. The winner of the tournament was the Apeks team, which in the grand final was stronger than Monte with a score of 3:2 (Default - 0:1; Mirage - 7:16; Dust II - 16:14; Overpass - 16:11; Nuke - 16:11).
The European team had a rather shaky regular season of the series, where they got nine wins and suffered five losses. However, kuben's team took 31st place, thanks to which they made it to the playoffs of the competition.
Here Apeks first beat Eternal Fire Academy (2:0), and then closed Into The Breach (2:0). But already in the quarterfinals, the team failed to cope with AVANGAR (0:2), thereby going to conquer the lower bracket.
Nevertheless, such a development of events did not bother the European team, which found the strength to beat LDLC (2:0), 500 (2:1), ALTERNATE aTTaX (2:1), EYEBALLERS (2:1) and IKLA (2:0) to reach the grand final.
The decisive match began for Apeks with a lost Mirage map, after which the team's chances began to evaporate. But here the wards of kuben managed to pull themselves together to close the next three maps in their favor, and at the same time beat Monte (3:2) and become the winner of ESEA Advanced Season 43 Europe.
