A depleted NaVi roster would have to forfeit their Loser's Bracket Semifinal match versus Team Twisted because Respectful was ill. HCS commentator Wonderboy also subbed in for TuFoxy who was unavailable today and given the circumstances a Top 4 finish for NaVi is respectable. Quadrant would go on to 3-0 Team Twisted in the following round, the Loser’s Bracket Finals, setting up a series against Acend who haven’t lost an EU tournament since October of 2020.
After a slow start in Game 1 and narrowly losing Game 2 by three kills, Acend would assert their dominance in a completely one-sided Streets Strongholds game that was way more lopsided than the 250-120 scoreline suggests. Game 4 was also a relatively lopsided affair, Quadrant was able to get multiple flag pulls but they struggled to advance it past the middle of the map. Acend would win the game 2-0 and the series, 3-1, extending their 16 month-long winning streak. With this being the final Open Series tournament before Europes Super that takes place on March 25th-27th we won't see Acend in action for quite a while.
EU Halo has the next weekend off and then the EU Super Qualifier takes place for teams that haven't already qualified for pool play.
