Minnesota Røkkr vs LA Guerrillas

Standy finished at 29/17 and Attach had 5K damage.

Map 2: Moscow Search and Destroy

Røkkr carried their momentum from map one into a strong opening for Search and Destroy. They started off with aggressive play and easily secured round one and two. LAG maintained their poise, played a steady game and took round three and four. LAG’s Cheen nearly got an ace in round five and made big plays for his team. After trading rounds back and forth, the match went the
distance, to round 11. After an accidental grenade stick by Standy onto Attach, LAG closed it out with the win. Priestahh led the Røkkr at 12/8, over 1,000 damage and five first bloods.
