Group A’s elimination matchup will feature the KRÜ vs Giants encounter
These two are the LCQ winners of the Americas and EMEA regions who have found themselves in the elimination match of Group A. The winner of this series will be going forward to the decider match to compete against EDward Gaming, and the losing squad will take an early leave from the Champions. In their first-ever battle against each other, none of these teams want to be eliminated from the Group Stage, and that’s why we are hoping for an exciting Bo3.
KRÜ
In their opening match against PRX, the Chileans failed to find firm ground against the best Pacific team, losing both maps and scoring single digits. Fortunately, keznit performed well as expected, and since he is someone KRÜ can rely on, their next match against a weaker foe may be a much more manageable battle. Moreover, we also have to remember that this is the team who defeated Cloud9 and had an undefeated journey in the LCQ.

Giants
Although they faced a loss in their opening encounter, Giants did exceptionally well against EDG, and Fit1nho looked ready to dominate the Champions stage. Compared to the domination faced by KRÜ, this loss seems much easier to recover from. Moreover, like the Chileans, Giants defeated some strong names in the LCQ. As a result, they have a pretty good chance of bringing their first win in this series.
