The first day of the Major came and went without too many big surprises. Some matches resulted in big wins, fx. Astralis vs. IHC, and Vitality vs. Complexity. We also had some matches that went right down to the wire, fx. Bad News Eagles vs. Eternal fire, and G2 vs. Team Spirit
The biggest surprise of the day was the fact that Team Liquid went 0-2. Even though the first few matches of the swiss format are Bo1s where everything can happen, Liquid was definitely not one of the teams who were expected to be at the bottom of the barrel after day 1. The world’s #13 will now have to fight through the lower bracket knowing that every game could be their last at the tournament.
