The first match day at The Gathering has been concluded, and even though there has been a ton of delays, teams in group A and C have learned their fates.
Since many have not been able to watch all the matches and follow the action due to delays, we now give you an in-depth report from group A and C's playday.
Let's take a closer look at the groups:
Group A
1.
Playzone.fi
2.Expert-Gaming
3.Team Dignitas
4.
Playzone came out on top in their group, beating every team except a 15-15 match against Team Dignitas. Demise did not turn out to be any big test for the Finns as they faced a 3-27 loss.
Expert-Gaming have impressed nearly everyone in the group stage, especially when they played a 14-16 versus Playzone. The Norwegians also sent Team Dignitas home after beating them with a 17-13 score.
HLTV.org has been on the phone with Expert-Gaming member Kristoffer "PAH" Røgeberg, who told us that the match against Playzone was quite unexpected, but it felt good proving themselves against such a high caliber team. "Our goal for the playoffs is to win a match, or two, at least. We are also aiming for the WCG Nordic spot", Røgeberg noted.
Group C
1.
Frag eXecutors
2.H2k Gaming
3.
4.
Not unexpectedly, Frag eXecutors have been slicing and dicing teams through the group stage, not losing a single match. The same goes for H2k Gaming, although they lost one match against the Polish powerhouse (8-22).
Stay tuned tomorrow, as group B and D will start off at 09:00 CET. Unlike today, no problems are expected as the powergrid issue has been resolved.
