ESL One Stockholm Dota Major 2022 Day 3 Playoffs
Today the penultimate team from Southeast Asia left the championship, and we got to know the participants of the winners' final. Here's an overview of today's game day!
Fnatic 2:1 T1
The day started with an Asian derby between Fnatic and T1. Both teams failed in the group stage, advancing only to the lower bracket. Before the match, our betting partner BetBoom gave equal odds for the teams to win.
And it turned out to be true. The teams were really equal. The match lasted all 3 maps, and each kept the intrigue until the fall of the throne. The winner this time was Fnatic. It goes on to face OG.
Tundra Esports 2:0 Thunder Awaken
Next up was the first semifinal of the upper bracket between Tundra Esports and Thunder Awaken. The clear favorite in the match was Tundra Esports, on whose victory BetBoom gave odds of 1.31.
The Peruvians from Tundra Esports surprised everyone several times in this championship, and today was no exception. They stood out with their draft picks and their indomitable desire to win. The game itself was so hot that the fire alarm even went off. However, that didn't help the Peruvians against the experienced Tundra Esports. Although, with great difficulty, the Europeans won.
TSM 2:0 Gaimin Gladiators
The final match of the day was a battle between Gaimin Gladiators and TSM. According to BetBoom, both teams had about equal chances to win.
North America has long been written off as a competitive region. However, it is the region that is represented by one of the participants in the winners' finals. On May 21, we will see TSM in the match against Tundra Esports to advance to the grand final of the championship.
