Following yesterday’s revelation of the confirmed playoff bracket for the ESL One Birmingham Dota 2 tournament, held at the DreamHack facility in the UK, we can now bring you the results from the initial series. Two teams have successfully secured their berths in the Upper Bracket Final, where a coveted spot in the Grand Final awaits the victor.
In the opening matchups, Team Yandex emerged victorious over Team Spirit with a 2-1 series win. Subsequently, Tundra Esports mirrored this performance, triumphing over Aurora Gaming with an identical 2-1 scoreline. These results set up an exciting clash between Team Yandex and Tundra Esports in tomorrow’s Upper Bracket Final. Meanwhile, Team Spirit and Aurora Gaming have been relegated to the Lower Bracket, where they now face the challenge of fighting to stay in the tournament.
Looking ahead to today’s action, a dramatic triple elimination is on the cards. Both first-round Lower Bracket matches are scheduled, along with the first Lower Bracket Quarterfinal. This means we will bid farewell to either Mouz or Xtreme Gaming, and either Team Falcons or Parivision. Additionally, another team will be eliminated after the Team Spirit versus Mouz/Xtreme winner match. The full schedule for today is as follows:
