The group stage of the Skyesports Championship has come to a close, with six teams advancing to a single-elimination bracket. As the group winners, Aurora and Eternal Fire will move straight to the semi-finals, while the remaining four teams will have to go through the first round of the playoffs.

Eternal Fire topped their group with a perfect record but were stretched to their limit by 3DMAX in their final game, which was decided in overtime. The Turkish team will be particularly happy with the contribution of Özgür "⁠woxic⁠" Eker and Ismailcan "⁠XANTARES⁠" Dörtkardeş, the highest-rated players of the group stage at 1.51 and 1.45, respectively.

Aurora ended the group stage with a 13-4 loss to The MongolZ but still three points clear of the Mongolian side, which dropped close games against PARIVISION and BLEED.

Curiously, neither BLEED nor PARIVISION made it to the playoffs, with Aleksandar "⁠kassad⁠" Trifunović's troops coming out victorious against their Russian rival in the last game of the group stage. Still, they had to settle for fourth place in the group after a three-way tie with The MongolZ and ENCE.
