OG to face Tundra in Upper Bracket Finals; Liquid and Nigma to Struggle in Lower Bracket

OG moves closer to defending their TI title after moving to the finals in the upper bracket.

The defending champs OG just got closer to their 3rd title dream after sending Nigma down to the lower bracket. After getting split between two legacies, fans either got a treat or a nightmare after seeing Kuroky and his squad go down the losers’ bracket to defend fight for survival.

OG Inch Closer to TI10

OG now looks more determined in defending their third Aegis after beating down their rival Nigma, 2-1.

N0tail and his squad started strong with a 34-minute finish with its shocking Chen pick with N0tail itself. OG’s Chen pick paid off following its strong performance under N0tail’s hands.

With the skill of controlling neutral creeps, the captain’s Chen boosted the team with its stacks. With a total of 28 camps at the end of the game, OG’s cores SumaiL and Ceb were fed with a huge gold boost mid-game.

Aside from the stacks, N0tail also served the team some premium heals which saved the squad multiple times in team fights. Together with a Mekanism pick-up, SumaiL and Ceb ran down Nigma fearlessly.

Adding some disrespect, OG closed game 1 with a fountain-diving show to expose them as a threat.

Meanwhile, Nigma did not take their disrespected defeat in game one. Kuroky’s squad fought back in game two after punishing OG’s aggressiveness.

With the hopes of doing the same strat, N0tail picked Chen once more. The team picked Magnus and Pangolier which compromised the Chen option.

Game three of the series looked favorable for Nigma in early game. OG quickly flipped the table in the 24th-minute mark after managing to win a crucial Roshan fight.

The game was decided in favor of Nigma after 41 minutes.

Following the Rosh win, OG looked forward to closing the game. In the 28th-minute mark, the team served Nigma with another huge team fight where Topson tanked all the damages dealt by Miracle’s team. With the tanking show-off, SumaiL was served with a huge opportunity to ransack Nigma after being given perfect timing.

The game was sealed off at the 34th-minute mark giving OG the ticket to the Upper Bracket Finals.

Nigma not Out of TI 10 Yet

Despite facing defeat, Nigma still has the chance to climb up the hell bracket. The team will be facing Nigma in a bloodbath for survival.

After getting a 2-0 defeat versus Tundra, Liquid is now fighting for their lifeline in the lower bracket.

Kuroky still has a chance to continue his TI streak should they beat Liquid in their match-up.

As of this moment, fans have their eyes locked at Tundra as the team managed to shock the scene after sweeping Liquid, 2-0.
