European RMR B: How It Went

It didn’t go without surprises. First of all, such teams as Astralis and Eternal Fire didn’t make it to Shanghai Major as both teams lost some important matches to underdog teams on their way, and it made for them a hard way to get out of it. What about winners and surprises in that case? Two teams that got their spot without losing a single game with a score of 3-0 weren’t G2, Spirit as many would expect, but it was 3DMAX and BIG who seemed unstoppable. 3DMAX match for the spot was against G2, and it was when both teams had a score of 2-0. and most people expected G2 to win and get their place at this point, but 3DMAX, in a hard match after losing the first map were able to make a comeback and take that game with a score of 2-1 in their favor. One more underdog team that made it to the Shanghai Major is Passion UA, who played against Astralis in an elimination match and were able to close that match with a score of 2-0 in their favor, deserving their spot at the Shanghai Major. It will be interesting to see if either of these three teams who made it against the odds at the qualifiers can make it far at the main event.
