On the other side of the bracket, Team Vitality took down Gen.G Mobil1 Racing with a clean 3-0 win. Spacestation sent Team Vitality packing with a 3-1 score in the Quarterfinal. Esports World Cup winners, Karmine Corp, took care of business against Spacestation, winning 4-1 to claim a spot in the Grand Final.
