A huge final game secured the win for Zero Tenacity.
Zero Tenacity snatched an ALGS Pro League win from under the noses of reigning ALGS Champions NAVI, securing a key final match win to finish first overall by just four points.
They stormed from 11 points behind heading into the final game, catching both NAVI and Shalala by surprise securing enough points to surpass both teams. This lifts Zero Tenacity up eight places in the overall ALGS Pro League standings in EMEA.
Huge game six brings it home for Zero Tenacity
Unlike yesterday, with Alliance running away with the lobby, todays ALGS Pro League was a narrow affair. Just a handful of points separated NAVI and Shalala heading into the final game - with all eyes on those top two teams.
However, both teams faltered at the final hurdle, perhaps guilty of taking one too many fights. That left the door open for Zero Tenacity to snatch the win, but they'd have to win the game to do so.
The final circle was no easy feat, with ever dangerous Aurora and TryhardThor both standing in Zero Tenacity's way.
The winning moment seems to be Fueda using new Legend Sparrows jump ability to take the high ground and remove himself from the carnage. That meant he could take a breath and wait for Atlas and Aurora to engage with each other from a prime position to clean up.
This moment is one of best examples we have seen so far in the ALGS for what Sparrow can bring to the game. The double jump proved crucial in those final moments of todays action, and proved to be a great pick by Zero Tenacity.

Shalala will be happy with their performance
While Shalala might feel disappointed not to have secured the win today, it was a much improved performance. French IGL KSWINNIE took to social media yesterday to express his frustration in his performance. He was determined to improve, and managed to help turn things around very quickly before todays matches.
While they do have a game more played than groups B and C, Shalala are now also sat in a decent position overall as we approach the business end of the Split 1 Pro League in EMEA.
