Liquid and Falcons Book Osaka Playoff Spots
Team Liquid and Team Falcons have secured their places in the BLAST R6 Major Osaka playoffs following victories in their Round 3 best-of-three series. Meanwhile, EDward Gaming and ENTERPRISE Esports have been eliminated from the tournament.
Team Falcons secured their spot with a dominant 2-0 victory over FaZe Clan. They become the first side in Osaka to qualify for the playoffs without dropping a single map in a series. This loss leaves FaZe Clan with a 2-1 record, forcing them to fight for survival in the next round.
Team Liquid faced a much tougher challenge against Geekay Esports. They managed to advance with a 2-1 series win, pushed to a deciding map by the tournament's surprise performers. Geekay Esports also move to a 2-1 record, keeping their hopes alive for a top-eight finish.
The elimination round saw EDward Gaming fall 1-2 to Fluxo W7M, ending their run with a 0-3 record. Similarly, ENTERPRISE Esports were swept 0-2 by 100 Thieves, also exiting the tournament without a single series win.
The middle bracket remains highly competitive. Teams with 1-1 records were split into groups following single-map matches. G2 Esports, M80, Virtus.pro, and LOS all secured victories to reach a 2-1 standing. This leaves several teams, including defending Salt Lake City champions DarkZero, facing elimination matches in Round 4.
