The 1win Series Dota 2 Spring tournament has witnessed unforeseen upsets as Team Spirit and Team Liquid fall victim to surprising 2-0 stomps by unexpected contenders.
Unexpected Defeats
Team Spirit and Team Liquid, both considered strong contenders, have been eliminated from contention for the 1win championship after suffering unexpected 2-0 defeats by Virtus.pro and Entity, respectively. Despite their setbacks, they still have an opportunity to secure a third-place finish in the upcoming matches.
Virtus.pro’s Triumph over Team Spirit
Team Spirit, initially favored to perform well in the tournament, faced significant challenges during the group stages.
Although they managed to secure a comeback victory against MOUZ in the decider match, they struggled once again in the playoffs against Virtus.pro. Despite showing promise in the second game, they ultimately fell short, resulting in a defeat by their long-standing rivals.
Entity’s Victory against Team Liquid
Similar to Team Spirit, Team Liquid faced unexpected hurdles, including a defeat to Virtus.pro during the group stages.
Their semifinal match against Entity proved to be a formidable challenge, with Entity dominating both games. Michal “Nisha” Jankowski’s subpar performance further exacerbated their defeat, highlighting their struggles in the new year.
