The MongolZ eliminate 3DMAX to make Pro League playoffs
3DMAX had beaten The MongolZ twice recently, including in the Skyesports Championship final, but the Mongolians now have their revenge.

The MongolZ have battled to the ESL Pro League playoffs via the last chance stage, finishing the job by eliminating 3DMAX with a 2-0 victory. The Mongolian squad will began their playoff campaign in the first round and will take on one of the group stage third-place finishers.
3DMAX and The MongolZ have now played out this series three times in recent history, once in the Skyesports Championship final and once in their ESL Pro League opening game. The exact same maps were played on each occasion, Anubis into Ancient.

3DMAX won comfortably in their first matchup, in India. The MongolZ got a little closer the second time in the EPL opener before finally achieving victory at the third time of asking. 3DMAX may well be ruing their veto having previously given The MongolZ so much footage and experience with which to fix their previous mistakes.
The MongolZ showed proficiency on both sides of the map to achieve their revenge win, posting a seven-round CT haul on Anubis and eight offensive rounds on Ancient.
Both of these sides are sitting in the top 20 of the rankings, and both have won lesser LAN events this year. Popular opinion would suggest that The MongolZ are certainly the stronger team of the two, so this was an important win for them to prove that fact and dispel their earlier weak record against 3DMAX.
The MongolZ now have the chance to bolster their credentials as a top 10 side, whilst 3DMAX will have to head back to the drawing board to figure out how to climb higher than their current status as top of the tier-two pile.
