The Defense group phase completed - mouz, coL, mTw and Quantic win their groups
The group phase of the second The Defense tournament is over. 16 teams proceed to playoffs.
Darer against Evil Geniuses was the last and final match of the group phase of The Defense. 24 teams have participated in the four groups, only the top four of all groups proceed to the playoffs. For determining the position in case multiple teams have same amount of wins, the time ranking is used in The Defense.
The final match of The Defense looked like a fair match for a long time, until Darer managed to push down all six barracks with just a single push. Darer is now tied in wins with mousesports, but as they didn't win in under 26 minutes, they stay at position two. Evil Geniuses is only in third position in group A.
