The VCT NA Challengers League is finally coming close to its end. The teams started with two Splits where they would be put in two different groups, and then the top teams would get points according to their position. After two Splits, eight teams made it to the Playoffs, where they got a chance to qualify for VCT Americas: Ascension. This event will provide them an opportunity to compete against other Americas teams in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The upcoming upper Finals of the Playoffs is between Moist Moguls and M80.
Day 5 of the Playoffs had two matchups. The first one was between G2 Esports and The Guard. Despite their best efforts, G2 could not stop The Guard in their tracks and were dominated in the BO3 (Best of Three) series by 2-0.
The second matchup was between Oxygen Esports and FaZe Clan. Oxygen Esports also had a dominant showing as they bested FaZe on every turn. They won the BO3 series by 2-0.
