Isurus and Mexico secure spots at WESG Americas Finals

Isurus and Edgar "MarKE" Jimenez's Mexico have secured places at WESG Americas Regional Finals after topping their respective qualifiers.

WESG 2017 Argentina saw Gale Force and Isurus battle it out in the grand final, with the former fielding Javier "⁠OmegaRed⁠" López instead of Edgar "⁠MarKE⁠" Maldonado due to the tournament's nationality restrictions.

Nahuel "⁠Straka⁠" Vazquez's Isurus kicked off the series on the right foot, finishing off their map pick with a flawless CT-side to grab a 16-7 victory on Overpass.

nbl and Straka have made it to WESG Americas finals after defeating tutehen's Gale Force

Isurus then carried that momentum into the second map, Inferno, and picked up a 12-3 half-time lead as Counter-Terrorists. In the second half, there was little that Jonathan "⁠JonY BoY⁠" Muñoz could do to stop Isurus from locking down the series to book their place at WESG Americas Regional Finals.

why do you keep commenting on every thread involving GF throwing shit at them? is it because there's no actual succesful players coming from your own country or what?

Are you retarded? I'm saying that GF is shit cuz they can't fix and be ready for it... Why did other teams didn't had the problems? It's not excuse that he was somewhere else... They are all from same nation so... Not like someone couldn't do something... But oh well... Argentina at it's finest

I don't really get your point tbh, maybe if you were to write in your main tongue i would understand it. If i'm not wrong your point is that GFE is shit because they couldn't get a 5th player and because Tomi should've played in argentina with less ping or something like that? If tomi couldn't travel then how is that the fault of the team lol. And they got a fifth player, but if your best player can't play you can't really expect the team to do great, especially considering that they're at about the same level GFE and ISG. But yeah, talk out of your ass, you have no clue and your english is so fking broken i can't understand half of what yo're writing.
