Following MOUZ eliminating Renegades in the final game on day three in Stockholm, the matchups for the fifth round of the Challengers Stage have been set.
In the final BO3 series which will see three teams eliminated and three progress to the Legends stage, BIG will take on MOUZ, Heroic will face Movistar Riders, and Astralis will play Spirit.
The initial game on Friday will see Heroic clash with Movistar Riders. The highest-ranked team still fighting for a Legends slot, Heroic, will have to step up and prove they are worthy of that spot after goint up 2-0 and then failing to overcome Copenhagen Flames and Entropiq in BO3s.
A derby between two German organizations BIG and MOUZ will follow, while the day will be closed out by Astralis – Spirit, probably the most exciting series left to be played. The CIS side often showed promise but continues to underdeliver, while an underwhelming Astralis are yet to defeat a top 20 team at the event.
Round 5 schedule:
