K1CK's godlike 31 point game on Storm Point

After a rough start with almost no points to their name in the lower bracket, K1CK pulled something out in game 4.

Some of the best moments of the ALGS Split 2 round 1 lower bracket

GMT Gnaske's insane white armor clutch

The first game of the day ended with an amazing play from GMT's Gnaske. As the final circle closed it came down to GMT's Gibraltar against GameWith's Wattson. With his armor cracked and the final ring closing, it seemed like Gnaske would lose the 1v1. But with a clutch armor swap and beautiful Mastiff shots, he managed to clutch the win for GMT.

The Ultimate showdown. Gibraltar vs Gibraltar.

One standout moment of round 1 of the ALGS split 2 lower bracket was the Gibby versus Gibby showdown. This Gibby only 1v1 between Acend's Postkill and CLG's NanoFRYS was an incredible mirror match to watch. The opportunity doesn't come around too often to see some of the top Gibraltars duke it out in a 1v1. An absolute treat to watch.
