If you’ve been watching IEM Katowice XV, you’ve already seen what the event has to offer. One of the most surprising things however, was that Team Liquid actually managed to plow through several solid teams, and have now qualified for the main event of IEM Katowice XV.
Team Liquid plow through teams during IEM Katowice XV – How did they do it?
They started it all off with a hectic match between themselves and MiBR’s newest squad. Eventually, the boys in blue grabbed a 16-12 victory over the brazilians and advanced onto the next stage.
Team Liquid were then matched against OG’s international squad in a best of 3. Map 1 (Mirage) went over to Liquid seamlessly, as they won 16-7. The 2nd map however, (Overpass) was much tougher, and favoured the OG roster (16-7). For their final map, Liquid were tested on Nuke, one of the maps they were struggling the most throughout 2020. Nonetheless, they played it well, and managed to clutch out the win (16-14) and qualification spot.
What’s next?
Team Liquid’s next step is to dominate during the group stage to solidify a placement in the tournament playoffs. They are not the clear favourites heading into the coming stages of the event, but can certainly shake things up with FalleN being their newest addition!
