absolute mad lads sent packing in Advanced playoffs
The final three matchups of the second wave of Advanced playoff series wrapped up last night, with absolute mad lads becoming the fourth team to be eliminated from MDL contention.
Kyle "OCEAN" O'Brien's side are the second-highest seed so far to be knocked out after losing to Rebirth and Drawn to Fulfillment. Despite taking Train in a 16-10 scoreline, they were unable to close out the series as DtF won two close maps to proceed to the next round of the lower bracket, where they will face top seed Gorilla Gang tomorrow night.
In the upper bracket, Rebirth couldn't build off of their upset win over the aforementioned absolute mad lads as they were blown out of the water by iNTACT. After losing a close map on Nuke, they were unable to gain any momentum on Inferno, losing 16-7 to send them down to the lower bracket.
The final series to take place was Faint's victory over Oceanus, where Sterling "sterling" Allard's side made quick work of the French Canadians, only losing18 rounds over the course of two maps to put themselves just one series away from booking their spot in MDL Relegation.
