Forsaken and OMiT advance through third ESEA Pre-Season Circuit qualifier
Peter "stanislaw" Jarguz's Forsaken lineup and Collin "CoJoMo" Moren's OMiT have advanced through the third ESEA Pre-Season Circuit qualifier, joining Bad News Bears, ex-Snakes Den, Rugratz, and timbermen in the main event.
Taking place one day after the second qualifier, the third qualifier featured a very similar slate of teams. Among the 40 teams that signed up, the top squads in this event were Forsaken, FLUFFY AIMERS, OMiT, and Hound. Interestingly, this event also saw the long-retired Andy "vSa" Xu playing with Green Tea Party as a mix.
In the qualifier, Forsaken had no trouble getting through Green Tea Party, but notably struggled against 7AM NA, requiring all 30 rounds on Overpass before stanislaw's troops were able to push through. On the other side of the bracket, OMiT claimed a 30-round win over FLUFFY AIMERS before needing to go the whole distance against jb8d, a mixteam of Advanced and Main players.
With Forsaken and OMiT advancing, it creates an unsure situation with Rugratz from the first qualifier. As that mix contained three players now on Forsaken, it is unknown what will happen to the spot; whether the team will be able to add three new players or the spot will go to the runner-up Reason.
With this, the team list now includes:
• Rugratz
• timbermen
• Forsaken
• Bad News Bears
• ex-Snakes Den
• OMiT
