Division I in Southeast Asia: start day results
Talon Esports, Bleed Esports, and Blacklist International started the season with wins. While Team SMG, BOOM Esports, and Execration were left behind.
Talon Esports 2:0 Team SMG
Talon dictated the first map. Everything went smoothly for them. Mikoto showed Void Spirit, 23savage showed Bloodseeker, and they also had a good Pugna + Underlord combo on the hard line.
The second map was completely different. We saw Phantom Lancer versus Terrorblade. A total of 104.5 kills was broken. The map lasted 68 minutes and ended in favor of PL from Talon.
Bleed Esports 2:1 Execration
The first map went to Execration: they won with Magnus as carry. Void Spirit was on the midlane, the Underlord + Rubick were on the hard lane, and Crystal Maiden was on five.
On the second map, Bleed Esports was stronger. The carry Magnus from Palos didn't work there anymore. JaCkky was great on Naga Siren with 2/0/13, and DJ on four with Enchantress had 8/3/7 stats.
On the deciding map, Execration played with a Marci on carry and a Huskar on midlane. This decision proved to be a failure. Bleed Esports played more standard heroes, and it paid off. Void Spirit om midlane at Southeastern wins again with 8/1/18 from Kordan, and Terrorblade from JaCkky has 5/1/16.
Blacklist International 2:0 BOOM Esports
The odds should have been pretty even here, as the teams are about the same level. However, the result is that Blacklist won twice, and of the heroes they have repeated only Rubick.
On the first map, BOOM played with a Templar Assassin as carry and a Batrider on a midlane. Already on the 19th minute, they had a crazy advantage of 12 thousand, but by the 35th minute, they gave it away completely and lost the map.
On the second map, BOOM also got off to a great start, and by the 20th minute, they had an 8 thousand gold advantage, but they lost it too. In the game of Blacklist, we would note a very stable game from Raven and kpii.
These were the results of the starting day in the first division of Southeast Asia. Teams are still in search of the meta, and therefore the drafts on each of the maps may change dramatically. But with us, you'll always be aware of the changes.
