Entity crushed TSM in the lower brackets of ESL One Malaysia 2022, sending the North American team home in 7-8th place.
It was an early start of the day in the lower bracket elimination series of ESL One Malaysia 2022 and it seems that TSM might not have fully woken up. Or perhaps it was just that Entity ate a breakfast of champions before. Either way, this head-to-head matchup was expected to be more intense but ended up heavily one-sided.
Entity took a 20-minute victory into a 30-minute victory. They played very clean with very few mistakes. They were in sync, their drafts were solid, and are boasting a 100% winrate with their Pudge/Sven combo.
Conversely, things went too wrong too fast for TSM starting in the laning stage. The North American team just didn't seem to be on point and Entity punished every misplay, never giving TSM a chance to get on the board.
TSM will go home in a 7-8th place with $10,000 in their pockets.
Entity will continue their journey in the lower brackets later today.
