VOYVODA shocks everyone by beating OG 2-1 in the semifinals.
VOYVODA has just completed a major upset at DreamHack Masters Spring Qualifier, as the Bulgarian non-ranked team took down the superstars from OG this Sunday evening.
Going into the match, everything pointed towards an OG victory with the International top team being among the favourites in the closed qualifier. However, it was clear Aleksi “Aleksib” Virolainen and his troops struggled throughout the match. Something, the underdogs from VOYVODA took advantage of by winning both Inferno and Dust2, to set up a thrilling deciding match against Cloud9 later tonight.
