Quincy Crew came from behind to beat Black N Yellow 2-1 on Tuesday and remain undefeated in the Dota Pro Circuit North America: ESL One Winter Division I event.
First-place Quincy Crew (6-0) are assured of being one of the top six teams in the eight-team event, which guarantees a spot in Division I for the next tour. The bottom two teams get relegated to Division II — and last-place Black N Yellow (1-5) is in serious danger of being one of those clubs.
Black N Yellow opened with a 40-minute victory on red Tuesday, but Quincy Crew rallied for a 25-minute win on red and then a 29-minute triumph on green in the decisive third map.
The United States’ Yawar “YawaR” Hassan paced Quincy Crew with an average kill-death-assist ratio of 8.0/2.7/5.0. Canada’s Muhammad Saad Ali “high_shaggy” Ghaznavi led Black N Yellow with a 5.7/3.7/7.0 K-D-A ratio.
Two matches are scheduled for Wednesday: Evil Geniuses (3-2) vs. Team Undying (4-1), and simply TOOBASED (1-4) vs. Wildcard Gaming (3-2).
