This past week we saw the first few matches of the 13th season of the ESL Pro League. Here we had Group A kick off, and we saw Heroic absolutely dominate their group. Here is how it all played out.
Heroic dominate Group A at ESL Pro League Season 13 – How did they do it?
Heroic opened up the group stage with a 2-0 victory over the Aussie Renegades lineup. With this win, they played against BIG, and after a tough and long series, Heroic won with a 2-1 scoreline. For their 3rd match, the Heroic lineup went up against the newly formed FunPlus Phoenix (FPX). Despite so many praises about this FPX roster, Heroic took them down seamlessly and won both maps.
Group Stage briefing
Heroic were now reaching the final phases of the group stage. Next up on their agenda was none other than the troubled OG squad. Heroic seemed like the true favourites for this series, and it was shown in the matches played. With OG using NBK instead of niko for the group stage, they were unable to get a solid result and lost the series 2-1.
Now it was all up to Complexity to deny Heroic the clean sweep in Group A. Despite a valiant effort from the mixed roster, they were unable to stop the Danes, and Heroic took the series, along with a dominant finish to Group A.
Heroic dominate Group A at ESL Pro League Season 13 – What’s next?
With this successful performance during the group stage, Heroic get placed in the Group A/B play-in, automatically getting placed into the Quarterfinals or Semifinals, depending if they win or lose. With the Group B matches taking place already, we’ll soon be seeing who will rival Heroic in the Play-in.
