With the weekend coming to an end, so will the North American Six August 2020 Major. DarkZero came out on top as winners after a stunning performance versus the best North American teams.
DarkZero win North America Six August 2020 Major – How did DarkZero do it?
First off, DarkZero were allowed to participate in the NA Six August 2020 Major due to their victory at the qualifier through the NAL. Afterwards, they were matched against Spacestation in the Semifinals. Spacestation won the first map (Consulate), 7-5 and up next as a 2nd map was Clubhouse. DarkZero came back stronger and won the map 7-4. They then moved on to the 3rd map (Kafe Dostoyevsky) and DarkZero dominated once more, winning 7-3 and progressing through the upper bracket finals versus TSM.
TSM had just beaten Oxygen Esports 2-0 and were easily the favourites to win it all. Maps for the UB Final were Consulate and Clubhouse, and DarkZero popped off, winning 1st map 7-4 and the 2nd map 7-1. This meant that they advanced to the Grand Finals, and sent TSM back down to the losers bracket.
Finals
TSM faced off with Spacestation in the loser bracket final and won 2-1. This meant that they advanced to the Grand Final for a rematch versus DarkZero. The format for the Grand Final was a best of 5, and a default win given for DarkZero as they did not drop to the loser bracket. Maps were as follows: Kafe Dostoyevsky, Oregon, Consulate and Villa. The first map started off with a solid defense from TSM, as they were winning 4-2. However DarkZero responded with an even stronger defense to end the match 7-4 in their favor.
We are 2-2 on Kafe.

DarkZero were 2-0 up and Oregon was next, one of their best defender side maps. DarkZero had an exceptional performance on the defending side, winning 6-0 on defense. This startled TSM and after switching sides, they only managed to win 2 rounds on their defender side before DarkZero’s attack crippled them. Here are some of their highlights from the Grand Final:
DarkZero’s performance during the NA Six August 2020 Major was definitely a sight to behold. They are easily the best North American 6 Siege roster at the moment, and we can’t wait to see more of them in the future.
