EDward Gaming lives to fight another day after an all-China match-up against Bilibili Gaming.
That win puts EDG into the lower bracket quarterfinals and will live to fight another day.
And this was kickstarted by Wan “CHICHOO” Shunzhi with a clutch on the opening pistol round.
However, BLG had other ideas.
The second map was a tightly-contested match of two halves.
In the first, it was BLG who had all the momentum, winning eight of the 12 rounds.
However, EDG would once again showcase why they are China’s number one seed with a second-half comeback.
And it was Zhong “Biank” Jian Fei who ensured it with his own four-kill sequence.
With Haven being the final map of the series, it was unclear on who would take it.
This was EDG’s first showing on the map while BLG were 0-2 heading into the final match.
And the first half was testemant to that as neither team could gain any real control or momentum.
EDG would soon respond with four rounds in a row of their own to tie it up 4-4.
The two teams ended up splitting the last four rounds, making it 6-6 heading into the break.
