Apeks defeat world’s no. 2

Heroic lost in the group A opening match against Apeks 16-19 in Overtime on Inferno.

2020-10-26 | @anespleygg

Casper “cadiaN” Møller and company lost against their Scandinavian neighbors in today's opening game of Elisa Invitational 2, 16-19 in Overtime. Heroic is currently placed as number 2 in the world, while Apeks is all the way down to the 75th placed team in the world.

The Norwegian organization signed former 100-Thieves player jkaem a couple of days ago, in hopes of building up the Norwegian scene. This was jkaem’s second game for Apeks, and it’s not a bad start when you beat a team that just won a tournament yesterday.
