Astralis one defeat away from missing PGL Copenhagen
The Danish powerhouse is now under heavy pressure at the European RMR tournament.
The Danish brawl between Heroic and Astralis ended with a clear-cut victory for Heroic, who took control from the get-go. On Mirage it was Guy 'NertZ' Iluz dictating the match with supreme firepower during the match, where Heroic was up 6-0 before Astralis managed to answer back.
Astralis has had issues at the start of 2024 finding consistency. The good start yesterday on Day 1 of the tournament was quickly forgotten as Heroic continued to be one step ahead. Nicolai "dev1ce" Reedtz was once again not at his best, which was one of the key reasons why the match ended 13-7 in favor of Heroic.
In the other bo1 matches today, ENCE managed to turn a 3-9 deficit into a 16-14 victory to go 2-1 up. Here they are joined by ECSTATIC and Apeks, who took down OG and Monte.
From now on all matches at the EU RMR are either qualification or elimination matches, and will be played as bo3.
Today’s results:
Apeks – Monte 13-5
ECSTATIC – OG 13-11
Astralis – Heroic 7-13
GamerLegion – ENCE 14-16
