G1-League qualifying latest

The latest game to take place in the qualifying for this event saw DK take on Chains Stack. It seemed vital that DK could get something from this game to keep any chances of qualifying for the main event alive. Both teams went into the event with a score of 0-2 in the group after losing to both Invictus Gaming and Zenith. DK managed to take the match 2-0 and dump Chains Stack out of the tournament. They have only a slim chance of progressing further now but it is certain that DK would have taken this result before the start of play today.
