BLAST Premier Spring Groups 2024 saw several upsets on day three. FaZe was defeated by GamerLegion, and Liquid barely edged past Spirit. Here’s a breakdown of the day’s action:

FaZe, a top team in 2023, suffered a 2-0 defeat at the hands of GamerLegion, led by Snax. It was clear that GamerLegion outperformed FaZe, and the latter will need a quick turnaround to stay in the competition. Fortunately for FaZe, they have the opportunity to face a Spirit team without their key player in the upcoming match.
GamerLegion showed exceptional performance, taking one map to all 24 rounds and pushing the other to overtime. They have surprised many, and their upcoming match against Liquid offers the chance to prove critics wrong.
Liquid’s Narrow Win

Liquid’s performance against Spirit, edging past them with a 2-1 scoreline, raised some concerns. Despite Spirit playing with two stand-ins and no superstar due to visa issues, Liquid struggled. While they managed to secure the win, their shaky performance was unexpected considering their high expectations.
On a brighter note, Twistzz’s standout performance salvaged the day for Liquid. His contributions were crucial, reminiscent of his time with FaZe. Liquid will need him in top form as they prepare to face GamerLegion in their upcoming match.
Additionally, BIG fell to Virtus.pro, and Cloud9 dominated the new Heroic roster, ensuring a day of expected results.
