Spirit’s dominance over Virtus.pro
Spirit entered the match against Virtus.pro as solid favorites. Maintaining high-energy aggression, they capitalized on their opponent’s exhaustion from previous tough games. Donk, one of Spirit’s standout players, delivered crucial rounds that overwhelmed Virtus.pro’s defense.
Virtus.pro, despite their strong form earlier in the tournament, struggled to respond to Spirit’s relentless plays. The result was a convincing victory, pushing Spirit into the Playoffs and sending Virtus.pro home.
