ABT qualify for the Master League Portugal Final Six
It's official. On 7 November, ABT Esports came through Master League Portugal XIX Qualifier #1 and secured one of the six spots at the Final Six, played in Aveiro from 20 to 22 November.
The run started against VaiAFatima with a 13-3 win on Ancient. Next came Agency Dojo in a much tighter game on Anubis, which we closed out 13-10.
In the decisive best-of-three, we faced EXOTICOS. We opened with a 13-8 win on Anubis, dropped Mirage by the same score and answered on the decider: 13-3 on Ancient and our ticket to Aveiro stamped.
The Final Six brings together the six teams from the two open qualifiers in a single-elimination bracket: quarter-finals on 20 November, semi-finals on 21 and a best-of-five grand final on 22. There is a €6,000 prize pool, and the event counts towards VRS, Valve's regional ranking. Entry is free and RTP Arena is broadcasting it.
Thank you to everyone who followed the qualifier and cheered us on throughout the day. Now it is time to pack: BeiranZz, ThozoR, hK, blaze and Ruy2k already have their tickets. In Aveiro, the only soft thing will be the ovos moles.
