Talon Esports Fends Off Blacklist To Enter BTS Grand Finals

Talon Esports made it to the finale of the BTS Pro Series Season 14: Southeast Asia after surviving Blacklist Rivalry, 2-1, in the grand finals last Wednesday.

The Tier One-backed squad went aggressive in the first game, selecting Marci and Ember Spirit for Polo “Raven” Fausto and Karl “Karl” Baldovino, respectively. However, Talon Esports went for mobility and picked Monkey King for Nuengnara “23savage” Teeramahanon which spelled out a lot of problems for Blacklist’s side.

Even though they took the early lead in Game One, Blacklist International could not sustain their fine start and dropped the game in under 37 minutes of action.

Talon Esports tried to close out the series in Game Two but Blacklist International mounted a come-from-behind rally that ended the game in almost 70 minutes.

Game Three proved to be a slow one with Rafli “Mikoto” Rahman (Templar Assasin) securing the first kill of the match after 22 minutes. That, however, proved to be the most important play of the night as it helped Talon Esports snowball into victory after 40 minutes of play.

With the win, Talon Esports advanced to the grand finals while Blacklist International was sent down the lower bracket final where they will face Fnatic for the final spot in the finale.
