BIG and Chaos prevailed in the second day of the FLASHPOINT Global Qualifier to advance to the semi-finals, where they will take on HAVU and Orgless, respectively, for spots in the inaugural season of FLASHPOINT.
The second day of the FLASHPOINT Global Qualifier kicked off with a Group A elimination match between BIG and AVEZ, where the German side were able to come out on top of a two-map affair thanks in part to a stellar showing from Florian "syrsoN" Rische early on in the series.
BIG's victory set up a tantalizing rematch between Johannes "tabseN" Wodarz's troops and the Brazilians of DETONA, who had upset the German side in their best-of-one opening match on day one before falling 0-2 in their winners' match to Orgless. BIG refused to grant Vinicius "vsm" Moreira and company the room to upset them once again as this time they remained in firm control throughout the series, excelling on the offense of both Inferno and Mirage to take the win in two maps.
The second Brazilian team in attendance, Redemption POA, also had their hopes of qualifying for the inaugural season of FLASHPOINT swiftly dashed in an all-American clash that saw Joshua "steel" Nissan's Chaos secure a pair of one-sided victories on Overpass and Inferno. Strong form from Owen "smooya" Butterfield in that opening series continued into Chaos' Group B decider against Copenhagen Flames, with the two teams trading wins on Mirage and Nuke before an assertive offense on Inferno from Chaos helped guide the team to a 16-2 victory, granting steel and company a spot in the semi-finals.
Following the conclusion of the group stage, the four teams that will compete in the playoffs of the FLASHPOINT Global Qualifier have been determined, with the final day of play set to resume at 18:00 . The winners of the semi-final matches will be granted spots in the league, where they will join ten franchise partners.
