Team Secret have finally broken their curse. They’re guaranteed at least a third-place finish at The International 10 with a dominant 2-0 victory against Invictus Gaming today.  Heading into this Dota 2 series, Secret were riding high after sweeping two-time defending champions OG—and they didn’t let that momentum slip.  Game one was a rout with Puppey doing Puppey things, giving iG heroes that are perceived as strong when in their players’ hands during the draft only to turn around and absolutely crush them. Specifically with Emo’s Lina, Secret were never

Any VALORANT fans who expected G2 Esports to breeze past the competition at the EMEA VCT Last Chance Qualifier and comfortably secure a spot at Champions got a reality check today. An unfavorable map selection for G2 was almost a disaster for the team, who clumsily drafted into Icebox and Breeze, their two least-played maps. Futbolist exploited this weakness and almost pulled off the upset. A decisive win on Icebox (13-7) for the Turkish underdog was followed by a closely fought tug-of-war on Breeze. After 42 rounds and over an

This lineup rotation had a largely positive impact on their performance and resulted in runner-up finishes in both the Spring and Summer seasons. This secured them the second seed in their group at Worlds. League
