The Story so far

In Day 1, MiTH came out absolutely swinging with a dominant 79 point lead - although Twisted Minds, GAM Esports and Team Liquid followed close behind! 

On Day 2, http://virtus.pro/ became the stars of the show, converting a solid Day 1 performance into a smashing Day 2 - ending on top of the leaderboard on 85 points. 

With Day 3, the tides turned - the return of MiTH caused shockwaves for the rest of the lobby, with other Day 1 powerhouses (like Twisted Minds: especially impressive as the team is playing with coach TheTab instead of Lu due to visa issues) also showing up in a major way. Will MiTH remain the favourites for the Final, or will another team rise up and take the lead? It all depends on how they can adapt to the Grand Finals Smash Rule Format!

Be sure to catch all the action live on Twitch and YouTube!
