Just like last year stage 1:
- Pretty mid for group stage, better than average but not beating the best teams
- Upset (NRG 1-2 MIBR), Optic 1-2 Rise
- Qualified to playoffs and was top seed in grand finals
- Lost to team they had beaten before (Guard 2-3 Optic), (Loud 0-3 NRG)
Come back to this thread when they lose immediately to Navi 0-2 just like they did to Xerxia
