You can find out about the results of the latest matches of Group A in the relevant news. Below are the results of the last series of matches in the group stage.
OG vs BOOM Esports
OG approached this fight in a relaxed state, as the team had already guaranteed a place in the upper bracket of the playoffs. For the first 22 minutes, the two-time champions of The International imposed a fight on the opponent, but then BOOM Esports got together and managed to seize the initiative. Skem and the team prevailed in 36 minutes with a score of 45:17. But that was only the beginning.
On the second map, OG showed an unusually terrible performance. The club clearly had no intention of playing in this match. Bzm, which is usually famous for its excellent individual performance, had 0-9-0 statistics in the 19th minute, and the score on the map was 22:5 in favor of BOOM Esports. It's worth noting that Taiga and ATF also finished without a single kill on the map. After 24 minutes, OG typed “gg” into the chat and completed this beating. The match ended with the victory of BOOM Esports with a score of 33:5.
OG 0:2 BOOM Esports
Nigma Galaxy vs Fnatic

At what 40 minutes of the game, purely statistically, no one pulled ahead much. But then Fnatic lost 2 fights, and then the whole roster went to the tavern, which was enough for Nigma to finish what they started.
Representatives of Southeast Asia were very reluctant to give up a place in the upper bracket of Nigma Galaxy so easily. Fnatic defeated KuroKy and his teammates in 38 minutes with a score of 29:12. Thus, the statistics of the teams in the standings were equal, and they were forced to play a tiebreaker, who determined the second member of group B, who would go to the upper bracket.

Tiebreaker
Due to the current situation in group B, Fnatic were forced to play a tiebreaker against Nigma Galaxy. According to the rules of the tournament, the teams resolve the controversial situation by playing 1 on 1 on the center line. So Armel fought against SumaiL. The game was played on the character Shadow Fiend.
At first, SumaiL was upset that the water rune did not appear at the 2nd minute, and he had already bought a Bottle. The first kill was earned by Armel, who implemented Shadowraze more competently. But in the 4th minute the players waited for the rune, it was taken by a player from the Nigma Galaxy team, which brought him an advantage. But SumaiL failed to convert it, and Armel killed the opponent for the second time and guaranteed Fnatic a place in the upper bracket.
