Potm Bottom eliminate Na'Vi from The Defense

The American team Potm Bottom has removed Na'Vi from The Defense tournament. With a straight 2-0 PB continues its long way through the lower bracket and goes up against mousesports next. Na'Vi finishes the tournament in 7th place.

The title holder is out! Na'Vi loses against team Potm Bottom and finishes only in seventh place - just as good as team SGC did. Potm Bottom is one of the few teams to eliminate Na'Vi in best-of-three in an important game. mTw recently did that twice: Once at DreamHack Summer and once at the TPL Masters final. Quantic Gaming achieved it in The Defense upper bracket.

Potm Bottom can now call themselves International champion-slayers. In a convincing 2-0 against Na'Vi, the team secures a place under the top 6 of The Defense.

Na'Vi losing the spirit of invincibility

Na'Vi cannot be content with the course of The Defense playoffs. Starting in the upper bracket, the team lost against Quantic Gaming in the playoff-opener. After eliminating We haz Asian, the last remaining all-German team, hope remained to fight all the way through the lower bracket. But already in their second lower bracket match, Potm Bottom now has terminated Na'Vi's hunt for a second Defense title.

Potm Bottom's third win in the lower bracket

After barely reaching the Defense playoffs with a 2-3 score and having to account on the better time rating, Potm Bottom has massively improved the performance: Team Empire, Darer and now Na'Vi have lost against Potm Bottom in the lower bracket already. Next up for Potm is team mousesports. They will not take the match lightly after Potm Bottom's convincing victory over Na'Vi.
