ZywOo and Vitality make it to the Champions Stage as the first team in Paris
The first of eight playoff participants have been found at BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023.
The hometown favourites from Vitality have secured themselves a spot in the Champions Stage at BLAST.tv Paris Major after beating Monte 2-0 on Anubis (16-10) and Nuke (16-13) this Sunday.
That means Vitality’s French representatives in Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut and Dan “apEX” Madesclaire are set to play in front of the home crowd in the massive Accor Arena in Paris in the upcoming playoffs.
The early advancement was secured in a Bo3 series, where Vitality showed strong levels on especially their T sides, managing to rack up eight rounds on the offensive side on both Anubis and Nuke against the underdogs from Monte.
And as we have seen so many times before, it was ZywOo who ended up being the standout player on the server, with his two Danish teammates Peter “dupreeh” Rasmussen and Emil “Magisk” Reif being right behind him on the leaderboard today.
