tarik and autimatic power Cloud9 to WESG playoffs
Cloud9 have entered the final eight at WESG 2017 Finals, after topping Group D. The American side managed to secure their way through with three fairly simple wins over their opponents.
Cloud9 opened up with a 2-0 win over GODSENT, with Train being the closer of the two maps at 16-11. They followed it up with two extremely swift maps over Belgium, before securing qualification by taking down the Chinese team MAX 2-0.
Timothy "autimatic" Ta has become the highest rated player at WESG so far, overtaking Tarik "tarik" Celik from before the second group stage began, with both players remaining in the top three.
This lines Cloud9 up for an all-Americas battle, taking on Brazilian side oNe. oNe passed Group B in second place, after draws with ORDER and Space Soldiers and a win over Bravado. The game is set to start at 10pm EDT, with the winner continuing to the semifinals against either Fnatic or MVP PK.
