Team Falcons started strong in game 1, with an impressive performance from Malr1ne on the high ground. Despite a brief setback in the mid game, BetBoom couldn’t hold them back.
In game 2, BetBoom initially seemed in control, but Skiter’s Sven proved to be a formidable force. BetBoom’s hopes faded as Falcons secured their second victory.
Game 3 saw Falcons dominating with Mars, Timbersaw, and Dragon Knight wreaking havoc on BetBoom’s cores. Despite BetBoom’s efforts, Falcons outplayed them in every aspect of the game.
While BetBoom had potential with Gyrocopter in position 1, Falcons’ aggressive playstyle left them little room to recover.
