The MongolZ eliminated as ESL Challenger Jönköping reaches playoffs

Losses to Falcons and Aurora have kept The MongolZ from vying for another LAN title.

The group stage of ESL Challenger Jönköping has drawn to a close, with four sides moving on to the semi-finals of the season's final event for the teams in attendance.

Both the semi-finals and grand final are set to be played out tomorrow, with Complexity taking on Aurora before ENCE and Falcons clash in the second semi-final.

Topping Group A of the event is Aurora, who secured their place in playoffs after tight BO1 wins over The MongolZ and Falcons. The latter side would go on to join Aurora in the playoffs after snagging BO3 wins over Party Astronauts and The MongolZ.

The MongolZ's group-stage exit is no doubt a deflating end to their season considering the momentum Garidmagnai "⁠bLitz⁠" Byambasuren's troops carried into the event, coming off back-to-back tournament wins at YaLLa Compass 2024 and MESA Nomadic Masters Spring 2024.
