Dust2.us Eagle Masters Series 1 Day 1 Recap - Nouns dominate, Daaku land major upset

The first day and the first four matches are in the books.

The first day of Dust2.us Eagle Masters Series 1 is all wrapped up, and fans that tuned in to the official Dust2.us Twitch channel were treated to an early upset.

Before Day 2 begins, let's get caught up on what made Day 1 so special.

United States BLUEJAYS 1-2 World Daaku

BLUEJAYS, the highest ranked team competing at the event, shockingly lost to an unranked Daaku roster last night. After BLUEJAYS took Train 13-9, Daaku evened up the series with a 13-10 Mirage win before heading to Ancient. And despite BLUEJAYS leading 10-2 after their T-side, Daaku answered with an even more impressive T-side, winning the second half 11-1 and taking the map 13-11.

Swedish player Anton "magi" Alevärn led the way for Daaku, with 71 kills against only 43 deaths in the series.
