ESL One Birmingham sees wild results after Group Stage
The Group Stage may not yet end but the results so far have been a surprise. While Group A sees predictable results with favorites looming on top, Group B brought a twist to the competition.
OG swiftly takes their spot up in the Upper Bracket with a 6-4 score. The team hasn't lost a single series and they even grabbed a 2-0 victory against Elite League champions, Xtreme Gaming.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, Gaimin Gladiators stands at the bottom of the standings. The prominent organization, known for its consistent form, has struggled to find their footing for a while. Unfortunately, ESL One Birmingham will not see their redemption as GG fall short and becomes the first of Group B to be eliminated.
