THL World Cup - Day 9 Recap - Group Stage Complete

Nothing like a few impending nerfs to motivate the masses to get those last games in!  The group stage is complete with 20 players moving on and 20 players going home.  Unless they were already playing from home.  Which is probably the case, cause you know it's an online card game.

For those advancing, resubmission is live.  You have until 8 PM EDT on Wednesday to submit your new lineup for the second phase.  Please do so here.

Group A:

The final 2 matches to decide this group came last night as Aviously defeated Rain 2-1 to sweep the group.  Rain would not be denied the opportunity to advance however as he defeated SuperMurloc 2-0 to clinch it.

Group B:
​
B plowed through 3 games last night as iCon split his two matches.  A 2-1 upset win over Bluesombrero was huge but he then fell 0-2 to Tris.  Blue recovered to beat Boozasaurus 2-0 which sends iCon to the sideline.  He is our only competitor to go 2-1 and not make the knockout round.

Group C:​

This group was much simpler.  LotusKnight vs SirLos to decide it and LotusKnight emerged with the 2-1 win.  Dropping the 1 game was enough to give TheChronic the 1 seed.

​Group D:

Another win and in scenario here for Mayanadon vs Billsnyder.  Mayanadon took care of business 2-1 to punch his ticket.

Group E: 

Anfal showed that he was wildly overlooked in this group by finishing his 3-0 run in beating BlueSpartan 2-1.

Make sure to join us on Wednesday at 9PM EDT for the bracket reveal stream!
