NRG and 100 Thieves Pick Up Wins in Americas Stage 2

NRG Make EG Look Outclassed

Keiko was the story for NRG. He put up 267 ACS and MVP honours with a +15 rating, and mada added 257 ACS alongside him as NRG won Lotus 13-1 before closing it on Breeze 13-7.

Evil Geniuses had no answer — a -38 round differential across the series and every player trending down on form. NRG move to 5-0 in Alpha and look as sharp as they did at the tail end of Stage 1.

100T Sweep LOUD, bang Runs the Show

In Omega, 100 Thieves swept LOUD on Summit and Haven, with bang posting 253 ACS and MVP with a +17 rating. Asuna added 248 alongside him.

KRÜ, the group stage's dominant force in Stage 1, end the group phase at 1-4 — a brutal collapse from the team that looked untouchable just one stage ago.
