There weren't any surprising results in today's Blast tournament, the favorites generally won. I watched the Aurora-Flyquest match, and it was a comfortable match for Aurora. It's good that Xantares is back. We already knew this team wouldn't be able to compete in major events without Xantares he was temporarily absent from the last tournament. Aurora was on a bad losing streak, but I can say this win at least boosted Aurora players morale.

At least the matches get interesting from here on out, now that the weaker teams are flushed out from the previous round. Today, we have G2 vs. Team Spirit, and in the final series of the day, there's the NA derby (FURIA vs. Team Liquid).

With Team Spirit dropping a map against Passion the other day, i'm starting to think G2 can also steal one here(Dust or Nuke), even if their best map(Inferno) gets banned.

Exactly, today's matches were very good. Especially G2 vs. Team Spirit. You won easily with a good prediction. I'm sure you were very surprised as well. Donk was slow today, being under 1k after three maps. Counter-Strike fans aren't used to that. I couldn't understand how G2 couldn't finish the Mirage map. They played much better. Heavygod was quite good on the Mirage map. They should have finished this match right away, where Donk was at his worst, but G2 just couldn't finish it.
