The highly anticipated Play-ins of the ESL Pro League 13 have played out and Heroic & Gambit have come out on top. Here is how Heroic and Gambit manage to win the EPL 13 Play-ins:
Heroic vs NiP
The Heroic vs Ninjas In Pyjamas match-up was extremely heated, with rounds going back and forth. Heroic won the first map (Inferno) with a 16-13 scoreline, and went on to win the 2nd map as well, (Nuke) with a 16-9 score.
Gambit vs Astralis
This match heavily favoured the Danish lineup. But as we’ve seen recently, this Gambit squad has shown tremendous improvement, and is looking to take another major title in 2021. The first map was Overpass, and Gambit got a lead on the T-side which got them the eventual win (16-7). Next map was Inferno, where historically Astralis would be better. Unfortunately for them, this match both sides of Gambit were strong and Astralis could not keep up, losing the game 16-12.
Heroic and Gambit win EPL 13 Play-ins – What’s next?
With this loss, Astralis and Ninjas In Pyjamas were dropped to the Quarterfinals versus Furia and Complexity respectively. On the other hand, Heroic and Gambit have automatically placed into the Semifinals. This means that they will be facing one of the winners from the Quarterfinals.
ESL Pro League has shown to be very hectic so far, and we just can’t wait to see how it continues to play out. Who knows, maybe Gambit can pull off another great performance and take down some of the best teams in Europe.
