Omega Esports: One last chance to stay among the best teams in Asia
Omega Esports finished second in the second Asian division of the first season of the DPC leagues. In terms of the level of play, they did not claim to be a major from the very start of this season, the team is fighting only for survival throughout the season. Omega Esports had good opponents, Execration and Lilgun. It was in these games that the fate of this Philippine stack was to be decided.
In the offseason, the team played in some online tournaments, at the Moon Studio Spring Trophy they even took part in the Grand Final but lost 0-3 to their compatriots from Execration without a chance.
The Omega Esports team started in the elite of the region sensationally successful. In the first match of the new DPC league, they beat well-known Lilgun 2-1, in the second match one of the two main sensations of this season in Asia took place. The participants of the T1 Major were beaten by the Omega, while the Korean team lost 1-2.
The team received their first defeat from TNC Predator (0-2), but this is not surprising, since the opposing team is now the sole leader of Asia. Omega Esports have experience beating Execration, but their opponent is very experienced and demonstrated their level in the DPC league, beating Omega Esports 2-0.
In general, after two starting victories, the Filipinos did not succeed. The last two defeats against Fnatic (1-2) and OB.Neon (0-2) determined that the guys will have to decide whether to retain their place in the elite in the final match, which still does not guarantee them anything 100%.
BOOM Esports: The battle for a spot in the Major continues
For the BOOM Esports team, last year’s online experience was at a good level, traditionally in medals and prize money. Yes, there are very few victories, but participation in the final is already enough to consider the tournament a success. According to the results of the first season of the DPC league, Boom did not make it to the Major, being left without a medal three in their region. The Indonesians finished the first DPC league in fifth place, making many mistakes in key games.
It was important to start the second season with a victory and this team did it. They beat the first opponent, Execration, 2-1. The favorite did not have the best game, but the main thing was the victory. Then the Boom team met with the Mongols from Lilgun and beat them 2-0. They did not cope with the Filipinos from Neon (0-2), which is not surprising.
Further, the Indonesians were unlucky in the games with Fnatic (1-2) and TNC Predator (1-2), but between these defeats, there was also an important success in the battle with T1, which still leaves the Indonesian team in the race for the Major.
