It was a tough day at the office for The International 5 champions Evil Geniuses, as the team were knocked out on the first day of ESL One Birmingham Dota 2 major.
The North Americans, who have struggled to string together half-decent performances in recent months, ideally needed a top three finish to secure a top eight finish and a spot in this year’s The International. However, after an intense match against fnatic yesterday, which ended with a base race, Evil Geniuses fell short and ended up in the lower bracket of Group A.
Facing Team Spirit in a BO3 elimination series, Evil Geniuses put everything on the line. Rasmus “MiSeRy” Berth Filipsen’s team were not able to repel the organised bullying strategy of their opponents and eventually fell 2:0 to Team Spirit.
Let us help you decide on the best MOBA.
Over in Group B, Vici Gaming was eliminated after being decimated in a BO1 matchup against OG and a BO3 match in the lower bracket against The International 7 champions Team Liquid, who took the series 2:0.

Newbee players fought to keep their dreams of a major run alive in Group C but were stopped by LGD.Forever Young. The Chinese team first encountered OpTic Gaming in the upper bracket BO1, before losing and facing off against LGD in the lower bracket.
