Top five highlights from Day 7

Here are some magical moments from last night's VCT Stage 1 Masters Reykjavik matches:

1) Jamppi's Ace

It was just the second round of Haven, and Team Liquid was on the attacking side. After winning the first Piston round, Liquid went for a semi-buy.

However, Jamppi single-handedly took charge of the game and scored an Ace to secure the round for his team. The early Ace increased his and his team's confidence after a disastrous loss in the first map on Fracture.


2) Zeta Division's utility usage to deny Spike plant

It was the sixth round of the Haven map when Zeta Division showed the beauty of Valorant. A team can win a round with perfect ability usage. With just 25 seconds left on the clock, Team Liquid tried to plant the Spike on C-site.

Zeta Division used Killjoy's Ultimate and Astra's Gravity Well to deny the plant and won the round without the expense of a single bullet.


3) Zeta Division's bonus win on Split

After winning the first two rounds comprehensively, Zeta Division tried to secure third on the board, and the Japanese side did it quite efficiently.

Two from Dep with Sheriff and two from TENNN with Judge did the job for the team and built up the momentum.


4) Forsaken's 1v2 Clutch

After a bad game against DRX, Paper Rex's Forsaken finally found his form against The Guard last night.

He made a statement with a 1v2 clutch in the 10th round on Haven to secure the 7th on the board for his team. The sheer aim of the youngster helped him win the round.


5) Jinggg's Ace

The final round of the first half was on Split. Paper Rex's Jinggg took an Ace to tie it up at half-time for his side. The crisp aim, perfect utility usage, and composure were the keys behind the Ace for Jinggg.
