Everyone’s focus is on the Betboom event. However, at the same time, there is a LAN event in the same city (Belgrade), and the AVULUS team has been crowned as the champion of the LAN event.
RES or a bridge between Tier 2 and Tier 1
The RES events were divided into 4 regions. It was held from February to September, and Lower Tier teams competed in three regions. RES Series EU by combining EEU and WEU. Combined NA and SA, RES Series LATAM and SEA were exclusively RES Series SEA. Each Regional Series was awarded up to USD 50,000 and awarded points called RES Points. Through this, they decided which team would play in Belgrade. To put it simply, it is the same format as the currently popular ESL Pro Tour. Despite the low skill level, this RES event was really beneficial for Tier 2 Tier 3 teams.
A lot of young players have emerged from the RES event, to give an example
The Dandelions (now Alliance) and the MOUZ team grew out of this event. Satanic, the young carry player of the current Spirit team, also reached Spirit through this match, and it is not wrong.
From Team Tea, they changed their name to AVULUS, then they changed the team’s mid laner and recruited the famous player Stormstormer. After this, AVULUS reached Top 6 in events like PGL Wallachia S2. In the RES Grand Final that was contested yesterday, they defeated the famous PARIVISION and became the Champions. The prize money was USD $100,000. The full roster of AVULUS, who were RES Regional Champions, is as follows.
1. Smiling Knight
2. Stormstormer
3. Xibbe
4. Ekki
5. Touch SoNNeikO.
