The second week has come to a close. We see some expected results from the NA region. Evil Geniuses and Quincy Crew share the top spot in the first division. 5RATFORCESTAFF and The Mystery Machine first in the second division. Let’s have a closer look at the second week of Dota 2 circuit matches.
Division I
Quincy Crew Vs 4 Zoomers
A high paced first match set the tone for these two fighting for a three-match series. It was only after 45 minutes that QC got a significant lead in the game. After establishing a stronghold, QC won the match 30-30 in well over an hour long battle.
4 Zoomers were quick to get a solid lead in the second match. With a handsome net worth on Lone Druid and Dawnbreaker, QC had very little space on the map. They lost most of the fights and eventually faced defeat. The scoreline was 14-36 in 45 minutes.
The last match had a much slower start compared to the previous ones. Although Zoomers were dominating the scoreline, the net worth advantage was clearly in favor of QC. They cleverly turned the gold advantage into more control at around 47 minutes into the match. The ending scoreline was 23-27 in 56 minutes.
TSM Vs simply TOOBASED
TSM took the lead in the early minutes of the first match. Although sT had kills in their bag, it was not significant enough to stop TSM’s progress. Climbing up the net worth ladder, TSM won the match 14-25 in 23 minutes.
The second match was no different. TSM dominated the game from start to finish, giving almost no space to sT. As much as sT were poor, TSM were not making any mistakes and that helped them win the series. The score was 11-36 in 24 minutes.
The Cut Vs Team DogChamp
The first match saw both teams fighting for a substantial lead in the early game. After struggling through the fights, DogChamp couldn’t stay in the game after 20 minutes. Getting ahead in net worth, they won the match 15-46 in 39 minutes.
The Cut got a lead toward the conclusion of the laning stage in the second match. They converted the advantage to an Aegis, asserting more control over the game. Unable to come back, DogChamp lost 39-10 in 29 minutes.
Evil Geniuses Vs simply TOOBASED
EG destroyed in sT in the first match. It was completely one-sided and EG scored 25 kills against 4 of sT. The match was over in under 20 minutes. After a cruel defeat in the first game, sT couldn’t recover and lost the second game too. Unfortunately, it was as one-sided as the first one, with the score showing 26-4 in a 20-minute match.
