The Elimination Bracket for epic23 began just after the groups came to an end last night. With the first round of matches over and the remaining bracket set to begin – here’s a brief recap of the results from the first round of games.
Notably, three of the seeded teams have been knocked out of the tournament. From Group A, Grouped CeX were sent packing by the wonderfully named FANCYABUM??. Group B saw the Cardinals replaced by the Norfolk Enchants, and Group D saw neither of the two seeded teams secure the top spot, as anime thugs left the event by the hands of Sham’s corner shop. Finally, seed 16 gamevibe were taken out by Perilous Fury.
