How did they do it?
BIG kicked off the event by getting a clean sweep through group B, winning against Complexity, MAD Lions, and Mousesports. They then progressed through the upper bracket playoffs where they would meet FaZe Clan, and beat them 2-0. Afterwards, they advanced to the upper Bracket Final where they would meet G2 esports, and lose 2-1. They dropped down to the lower bracket finals where they would face-off FaZe Clan once more, and beat them 2-0.
They then advanced to the Grand Finals where they would meet G2 for a 2nd and final time. G2 was given an automatic map point since they passed through the Grand Finals without dropping to the lower bracket. After an intense 4 map series, BIG successfully reverse sweed the european squad of G2 to be crowned champions of DreamHack Masters Spring 2020.
As for Furia, they have been dominating the NA scene for quite some time now, and it seems like they’re heading for a similar past they had in 2019.
Furia started the event by getting a 3-0 in the group stage versus teams like Team Liquid, MiBR and Chaos. This led them to the upper bracket finals versus 100 Thieves, which they managed to beat 2-1. They advanced to the Grand Finals, where they would meet Team Liquid once more and beat them 3-0 in a best of 5 series.
The event was excellent, upsets happening left, right and centre definitely increased the event’s hype, and DreamHack has certainly delivered once more. However the biggest question still stands. Will BIG and Furia manage to dominate their regions? Or were these events just one-off victories?
