Virtus.pro and Liquid had the first series in the playoffs. Both teams claimed a convincing victory each, and everything came down to the third round.

But despite their efforts, they were not able to bring down the blue horses who won the series 2-1. VP are now eliminated from the tournament, whereas Liquid will continue their run in the Lower Bracket.

Alliance vs Vikin: A 96-minute neck-to-neck battle
It was an incredibly tough match between Alliance and Vikin.gg as both teams were fighting until the very end. The first match lasted for 96 minutes and was accompanied by constant networth swings.
Indji 'Shad' Lub ended the game with the highest kill score, sporting 22/3/15 on Drow Ranger. Miroslav 'BOOM' Bičan on the other hand showed a great strategy on Tiny. Equipped with Woodland Striders and an Aghanim's Scepter, he could defend his base by constantly throwing trees at his opponents.
Both teams were fully committed to winning this match and neither gave up. Despite Vikin's strong performance early on and Shad carrying his Divine Rapier to battle, they were not able to complete the push of Alliance. The green army kept dying and rebuying, but slowly and steadily they brought down the Ancient and eventually, Alliance won the game.
The second match was far more straight forward, and Alliance claimed a 2-0 victory after 38 minutes. Vikin.gg are eliminated, [A] advance to the next round of the Lower Bracket.
