As a longtime esports enthusiast who’s witnessed countless matches and upsets, I must admit, this MIBR vs Team Spirit game was a rollercoaster ride! I still remember the embarrassment of watching MIBR lose on Ancient, but their comeback on Nuke was nothing short of spectacular.

There, they’ll face either G2 esports or 3DMAX. Regardless of the outcome of the upper bracket final, MIBR has already guaranteed themselves a place in the ESL Pro League Season 20 Playoffs

Initially, MIBR selected Ancient as their teammate. However, despite being their preferred choice, Ancient’s performance turned out to be a disappointing spectacle for MIBR. The scoreline read 2-13 in favor of Ancient, with Donk putting up an exceptional display. Regrettably, no MIBR player was able to score in double digits, which underscored the team’s apparent lack of preparation on this specific map

In the second map, MIBR clinched a 13-7 victory, tying the series. The entire series was decided by the final map where the two teams engaged in an intense battle that extended into overtime

Although spectators felt that Team Spirit had regained momentum, the final outcome remained uncertain
