Coming out of the first Round Robin, AHQ sat at 0-3 and needed to go 3-0 on elimination day to qualify to the Worlds 2019 Knockout Stage. Invictus Gaming shut out that possibility in just the first game, read about it here:
What started with a hopeful rebound for Cloud9 ended rather quickly as they lost their first game to Griffin, requiring G2 to go 0-3 AND lose in their tiebreaker for C9 to make it through.
Well one thing is for sure, Group B has been... entertaining. What looked like FPX domination almost ended with an FPX emilination! But in their final matches, they went 2-0 to qualify for the Knockout Stage as the first seed!
After being tied for first in their group coming into the second Round Robin of the Group Stage at Worlds, J Team was eliminated after losing to Splyce and FunPlus Phoenix, both of whom qualified for the knockout stage.
