Form Cloud9
At the first stage of VCT 2022 NA Challenger, the team took 3rd place, unfortunately, for the players, getting to Masters Reykjavik ensured only the first two. The second stage of the qualifiers went much worse, 9th-10th place and again flying to Masters Copenhagen.
At the current tournament, the team shows a controversial performance. The first match ended with a victory against Shopify Rebellion on two maps Ascent (13-10), Fracture (17-15). Next, the team was expected to meet with The Guard and become a loser after losing on two maps Fracture (9-13), Ascent (11-13). In the quarter-finals of the lower bracket, C9 passed NRG on Breeze (13-7) and Icebox (13-8) without any problems.
