Oof … that Game 1 was painful if you’re a /EU fan …
Okay, Game 2 was actually WORSE if you’re a fan … MAD blows a 9k gold lead thanks to two disastrous teamfights in the mid game
Game 3 was back-and-forth, but in the end, the better team won: DWG Kia remain undefeated in Worlds 2021 and move on to semifinals!
Game 1 featured some great gameplay from both teams, but Gen. G ended up on top. Game 2, on the other hand, was a complete stomp by Gen.G Can Cloud9 fight back? Or will Gen.G win out and move on to the semis???
Giant “oof” for C9 … after building a lead, they lost the mid game and the match Gen.G dominate and grab the last semifinal spot!
EDIT: BDD is kind of a jerk in the post-match interview

RESULTS
Game 1
EDG absolutely SMASH DWG Kia in the first game of the day! Even more than T1 last week, they made DK look helpless for most of the game! It’ll be interesting to see if they can keep up the momentum and how DWG adjust!
Game 2
DWG Kia roar back in Game 2 to even the series! They had EDG on the back foot almost the entire game with outplays in every phase. Now to see if EDG can adjust as DK did after the first game!
Game 3
This was an excellent match, with DK winning enough fights to take the lead in the series. Great draft, great execution on their game plan. Now they’re at match point!
Game 4
EDG put on a clinic and control the map completely to take Game 4! The series comes down to the final game!
