Stavn soars to show the way for Heroic
“Don’t play Heroic on Ancient in a Bo1” - James Bardolph
The two Danish giants of Heroic and Astralis were set to face each other in the third round of Legends, as they attempt to join their Danish friends from Copenhagen Flames at 2-1. Heroic are the favorites in this matchup at the moment, especially considering that the map choice fell upon Ancient which has looked great for Heroic.
It was the favorites of Heroic to start out strongest taking the first seven rounds of the map. This was looking like it might be a repeat of Astralis vs. NIP from yesterday. This was when Astralis finally answered back, taking their first round on the back of a failed mid push from Heroic. Astralis weren’t allowed much more as Heroic were totally dominating both as a team and individually, leading them to a 13-2 half on their CT-side.
The second half brought a little more luck for Astralis as they were able to take five rounds on their CT-side heavily carried by “dupreeh”, but they will now face elimination in their next matchup.
