Division 1 in North America: start day results
Nouns and Shopify Rebellion started the first day of the DPC with easy wins. In turn, B8 and TSM lost to them without taking a single map.
Nouns 2:0 B8
The first map started very poorly for B8. Dendi on Ember Spirit was giving up a line to Timbersaw on the midlane. Ember Spirit was losing the Net Worth to the enemy midlaner by 2 times for the 10th minute. Even with Alchemist, B8 never made it to the gold leadership and lost the map inevitably.
The second map was even worse for B8. After losing all the lines, it was difficult to play. In 26 minutes, B8 lost their second one.
TSM 0:2 SHOPIFY REBELLION
TSM started the first map quite well and even led by a few thousand in gold until the 20th minute. But there was a series of mistakes, after which Arteezy on Terrorblade gathered his items and finished the game.
While TSM tried to stall for time on the first map, they failed on the second. It was over in 20 minutes, and Shopify Rebellion's core positions didn't even die once.
The DPC NA 2023 Tour 3 Division I matches run from May 15 to June 4. Eight teams compete for $205,000, 1,150 DPC points, and 2 entries to The Bali Major 2023.
