I'd be interested to know why AFB didn't chose Group A AND Conbox since even in the event that they would have lost to Envy they still would only have had to face the winner of X-6 and Conbox.

To me that would have been an almost guaranteed path to the semis. Well, at least this makes the groups slightly more balanced.

I don't know how to properly quantify AFB's performance this season because their group was, imo, the 2nd weakest but I'll give them a slight edge considering how much better they look now that their unit has been improved.

Afreeca Freecs Blue 3-2 Meta Athena

AF blue wins...

Even though MA has shown their weaknesses against dive meta, there are so many variables in this match.

I think this game gonna be close.

AFB 3 - 2.
Afreeca has looked really strong this season, so it'd be quite surprising to me if Meta somehow managed to win this, but who knows.

AFB 3-0

AFB 3-1

would like a MA upset though

Meta 3-2

I like sayaplayer's frag movie so go Athena

AFB 3-1, thank me later

After they capped first point,i don't think mano died once and he literally picks like 2-3 people everytime

NUS is just so absent from this game.

Just embarrassing performance for Meta Athena. :[

That was a horrific performance from Meta, they really should have mixed things up at some point when it was apparent that mirroring AFB's comp was going nowhere. Why not get Hoon on zarya to limit the Dva's impact....

MA didn't play poorly. AFB is just a better team. pretty nutty that they went from mediocre in s2 to possibly the best team in s3

GG to both teams; MA is filled with strong players, but AFB simply outplayed them. Arhan, Mano.. gods.

Meta continues to be weak against even semi-dive teams, but AF Blue just looks so strong right now. It also looks like they'll have an easy path to the semis now. Looking forward to see how they do against the other top dogs which they have yet to face.
