The Summit 3 China: LGD to the qualifier finals, iG eliminated

The Chinese qualifier for The Summit 3 is almost over, with only the loser bracket final and grand finals to be played out with LGD being one of the grand finalists. The loser bracket finals will between HGT and EHOME.

Only three teams remain in the Chinese qualifiers in The Summit 3, LGD are sitting in the grand finals awaiting the winner of HGT vs EHOME which will take place tomorrow at 15:00 CET. The grand finals will be played the day after (Saturday) at 15:00 CET with the winner proceeding to the BTS house in LA for The Summit 3 LAN finals, joining fellow Chinese team Vici Gaming who were invited after winning last season.

Some would argue that the brackets has had very interesting results, such as the elimination of Invictus Gaming, HGT making it to the loser brackets finals and LGD's strong showing.

IG's elimination come as a surprise for many as they have been putting up a stellar performances in the recent weeks, going 14-2 as far as official games go last month. What makes this fact more surprising is that the teams who eliminated them, EHOME and HGT, have been putting up relatively bad performances with a win/loss of 2-5 and 7-5 last month.

HGT going this far into the tournament and winning a series against IG is an impressive performance for a team who had a 10% win loss in the month of March, being barely able to win a game against the top tier Chinese teams. Their next match will be against EHOME who are yet again another team who has been playing quite well recently, managing to 2-0 everyone they face except LGD. When LGD announced their roster, many believed it to be the next TI-champion but they have been falling behind Vici Gaming and Invictus since then. Perhaps now they have found their pace and potential.
