In Western Europe, the regional finals continue today. The format of the tournament for 4 teams immediately invites us to plunge into the playoff bracket without any group stages and other preliminary rounds.
Yesterday the first round of the upper bracket took place, and today we are waiting for the main confrontation of the day - the final of the winners, where a very interesting battle awaits us. Gladiators will play against Team Liquid.
If almost everyone expected to see Liquid here, then the Gladiators continue to pleasantly surprise after the regular season. Let's see if they can surprise us this time.
Form Team Liquid
Team Liquid will be the clear favorite in this match. There shouldn't be any issues with this.
Liquid have shown their ability throughout the regular season and continue to dominate the finals as well. Their game against OG is a direct confirmation of this.
