On Fait Quoi and Lowkey qualify for Mythic Cup 3 but decide not to play; bracket drawn
The qualifier for today's Mythic Cup 3 was played yesterday, seeing 52 teams compete for two spots in the $2,500 event.
Making their way through the bracket was the French Canadian mix On Fait Quoi, featuring Lazarus' Yassine "Subroza" Taofik and CLG Red's Catherine "CAth" Leroux. The mix resembling the FRENCH CANADIANS lineup of yore took down Hentai Heroes in the semi-finals to claim a spot in the main event.
On the other side of the bracket, fellow Canadian Alex "vek" Voynov and Lowkey faced off against Holo in an all-Advanced showdown. Alex "Obs1dian" Conrad and Paytyn "Junior" Johnson were too much for Holo to handle, as Lowkey handily took the win 16-7.
The full bracket is available here.
Despite qualifying, neither team will actually participate in the main event, due to Lazarus and Lowkey having a WINNERS League match scheduled tonight at 7 PM EDT. The schedule conflict rules out Lowkey from participating in Mythic's event for obvious reasons, and On Fait Quoi are seemingly uninterested in playing without Subroza. As a result, the 3rd-4th place teams of Holo and Hentai Heroes will play in the main event.
Additionally, Bad News Bears have pulled out of the event, so the final spot has been awarded to We Da North, another Canadian mix featuring Ryan "shanks" Ngo and Jimmy "Marved" Nguyen.
With all that being said, the bracket for the event has been drawn, and will be as follows, assuming no further teams decide to not participate:
eUnited | vs. | Hentai Heroes |
Bushido Boyz | vs. | Prospects |
Party Astronauts | vs. | Good Game PR |
ex-Zone | vs. | Front |
Singularity | vs. | We Da North |
Thunder Logic | vs. | LiViD |
ATK | vs. | Holo |
Variance | vs. | Big Frames |
All the above matches will kick off tonight at 7 PM EDT, with the quarterfinals following after.
