Liquid cruise into CAC playoffs ahead of MIBR

Liquid have booked a playoff berth in their first significant event since the return of EliGE.

Liquid have booked their place in the CS Asia Championships playoffs by virtue of a comfortable 2-0 win over MIBR (Mirage 13-5, Nuke 13-5), ensuring a successful start to life with Jonathan "⁠EliGE⁠" Jablonowski back on the roster.

For most of the series Liquid were in cruise control, MIBR only really looking competitive in a solid five-round offensive effort on Nuke, which they posted after losing the pistol round.

Beyond that single half of play Liquid were dominant, limiting their Brazilian opposition to a mere three gun round wins across the rest of the series.

MIBR's two new signings endured a particularly torrid time of things, Klimentii "⁠kl1m⁠" Krivosheev and Aleksei "⁠Qikert⁠" Golubev mustering only 30 frags across the series between them, less than Guy "⁠NertZ⁠" Iluz or Roland "⁠ultimate⁠" Tomkowiak racked up individually.
