Marsborne go 1-1 in ECL debut
Marsborne, a new NA organization that boasts veterans such as Ian "motm" Hardy and Adam "WolfY" Andersson, won one and lost one against Chicken Coop in their ESL Challenger Season 49 North America debut last night.
Marsborne have two stand-ins for ECL S49 NA in the form of Josh "steel" Nissan and Brody "BeaKie" Kelly to retain their spot in the league, and steel was the one who played last night in WolfY's place.
Steel and co. kicked off their ECL run on the wrong foot as Chicken Coop outclassed them in Anubis thanks to a strong T-side in which Justin "FRIZZY" posted an impressive 18-5 K/D.

It looked like Chicken Coop would beat Marsborne again, this time on Mirage, as they won six rounds in a row to kick off their CT-side in the first half and FRIZZY kept his good form.
However, Marsborne clawed their way back into the game with an even stronger CT-side. Adam "Grizz" Golden showed his credentials with 17 kills in the second half, helping Marsborne to secure one win in their debut.
