Riot Games announced that T1 and DRX defeated Team Secret and Global Esports respectively in the 13th week of the VCT Pacific Stage held at the Sangam SOOP Coliseum in Seoul from the 5th to the 7th, achieving all three wins and reaching the PO.
First of all, T1, which is highly anticipated by winning the Masters Bangkok, was the first to advance to the playoffs in the Omega Group. T1, which continued its winning streak until the second week, continued its three-game winning streak with a 2-1 victory over Team Secret in a full set match on the 7th.
In the first set at 'Haven', T1 won with a round score of 13 to 6 thanks to Yoo Byung-chul's outstanding performance of 23 kills and 10 deaths. T1, which won six rounds in a row from the third round of the first half, finished the first half 8-4 and won the first set with a 5-2 victory while showing a higher shooting sense in the second half. T1, which lost 9-13 in the second set in the `Ice Box,' won the round score of 13-8 thanks to Yoo Byung-chul's Rays' all-time performance of +17 with a whopping 30 kills and 13 deaths in the third set in the Loters.
T1, which had been on a roll by defeating the Zeta Division and Nongshim Red Force in the 1st and 2nd weeks, won all three games by overpowering the team secret and got a PO ticket that was given up to fourth place in the Omega Group.
VCT Pacific Kickoff winner DRX used call-up 'Estrella'Park Gun instead of 'Vane' Kang Ha-bin, but defeated global esports with a set score of 2-0, confirming their playoff spot in the Alpha Group. DRX, which defeated global esports following Paper Rex and Detonation Focus Me, confirmed its advance to the playoffs along with Boom Esports, which continued to win all three games side by side.
On the other hand, Korea's Nongshim Red Force made a disappointing move. Nongshim Red Force, who faced Tallon Esports on the 6th, won the first set but lost the second and third sets. Nongshim Red Force, which suffered elimination after losing to Talon Esports in the VCT Pacific Kickoff loser's game, also lost to Talon Esports in the Stage 1 group stage, recording 1-2 losses and ranking fifth in the Omega Group.
