The second day of the Shanghai Elimination Stage revealed the names of two teams that have secured their playoff spots, as well as two teams that have ended their journey in the biggest tournament of the second half of the year.
After Day 1 shattered many players' pick 'ems, the situation has slightly stabilized as two favorites lived up to their expectations. Team Vitality convincingly defeated MiBR, advancing to the playoffs with a 3-0 record. Meanwhile, Wildcard Gaming, co-owned by popular streamer Amouranth, exited the tournament without a single win. For the North American team, simply making the top 16 was a significant achievement, so neither the players nor their owner are likely to be too disappointed.
The MongolZ have made a bold statement with their performance. Representing Asia, they have already set a record as the first team from the region to make the top 8. Additionally, the team has steadily climbed upward, consistently dominating the tier-1.5 scene. Now is their time to shine, and it's heartening to see The MongolZ fearlessly showcasing their skills on the biggest stage of all.
Tomorrow, three teams will be eliminated, while three more will secure playoff spots. The most exciting moments of the Shanghai Major are yet to come.
