Congratulations to HellRaisers on keeping their ESL Pro League slot for season 6!
North American division
Ghost Gaming vs. The Foundation W-FF - elimination match
Due to the lack of a fifth player, The Foundation forfeited the match, making Ghost Gaming automatically advance to the decider match.
Rush vs. Enigma6 0-2 - winners’ match
- 2 - 16 on mirage
- 12 - 16 on cobblestone
RUSH get another round in Game 2! But they still have a long way to go to earn the #ESLProLeague spot. https://t.co/6WUbChSLS5
