Few popular teams struggling
Team Iflick and Global Esports, who were in the top five of Challenge Season rankings, have not been able to make an impact for day 1. While Team Iflick managed a chicken dinner, their other matches did not go as the team expected.
Global Esports is also in the 14th place with 29 points. The team could not find enough impact in all six matches they played. On the flip side, few of the bottom team in Challenge Season are performing well in finals. As of now, the gap between the top teams and the bottom seem far too big.
