After coL and FiT squared off yesterday, Group B took the day off from competition with two matches from week six already decided and two matches postponed. Still, HoN fans got an exciting match to watch, because Lions and Orange eSports decided to play their match.
Usually this Thursday was reserved for the great teams of Group B to shine, but FiT and compLexity Gaming played their match yesterday, BoCe against Dynasty resulted in a 2-0 victory for Dynasty because of the disqualification and the other four teams postponed their matchups.

Group A actually took an interesting turn with Lions and Orange eSports deciding that the forfeit loss for ORGE was not correct. A lot of controversy popped up yesterday, after Lions took the forfeit victory against Orange eSports, most likely ending the playoff dreams for the Malaysians. The record was set straight today with the official match, but the result is still similar. With the 2-1 victory for Lions both teams are most likely out, because of QsQ 357's remaining matches against sub .500 teams. Mathematically is ORGE still in the mix, but it is highly unlikely that QsQ 357 loses one of the two remaining matches.

A similar situation occurs in Group D. As Honcast reported on stream, QsQ 1 is most likely granting fnatic a second chance to avenge the forfeit loss in week four. According to BreakyCPK, fnatic stated that they weren't aware of the match, causing the no-show of the well-respected Heroes of Newerth team. This second chance restores the playoff hopes, although those hopes are pretty thin. fnatic has to win every remaining match and hope for both TmRy and Trademark eSports to loss atleast once. The match between fnatic and TmRy is still ahead, while ClanMilk and Trademark eSports already defeated the four-time DreamHack champions.
