Tundra are undefeated, Falcons beat Xtreme again, results of the second day of Blast SLAM V
The second day of the group stage of Blast Slam V has ended. Tundra Esports are the only ones without losses, while Heroic are the only ones without wins. Note that all group stage matches are played in a bo1 format.
After a successful start, OG lost three matches in a row. It is worth noting that today OG played against the main favorites of the tournament - Team Falcons and MOUZ, but both maps were one-sided.
The finalists of The International 2025 - Team Falcons and Xtreme Gaming met for the first time after the grand final. Their match was the longest in the tournament, Xtreme Gaming called GG only at the 60th minute. The map was low on kills but interesting. Team Falcons won the lanes and took early dominance, but thanks to an excellent stretch from 30 to 40 minutes, Xtreme Gaming caught up, bringing the game to a draw. At the 41st minute, NothingToSay made a crucial mistake, allowing Team Falcons to pin Xtreme Gaming at their base and gain a 30k advantage. In the decisive fight, Team Falcons overpowered the Chinese team.
Team Yandex, starting the tournament with 0-2, had an excellent game day, winning three matches in a row. The team even managed to beat the champions of the last tournament - MOUZ. CHIRA_JUNIOR was the best player of the map, finishing with a KDA of 15/3/21 and participating in 75% of the kills.
Heroic still couldn't win a single map, ending the second game day with a score of 0-4. So far, they have played against strong Team Falcons, MOUZ, the awakened Team Yandex, and Xtreme Gaming, who are in poor form.
The group stage of Blast Slam V takes place from November 25 to 29 in an online format. Deciders will be played next, with the top six teams advancing to the playoffs, which will be held in Chengdu, China. The tournament prize pool is 1 million dollars.
