EnVyUs qualify for ESL One New York
EnVyUs beat Gambit, 2-0, in the ESL One New York Europe Closed Qualifier final to earn a ticket to the event in the Empire State. The tournament, which takes place next month, will feature a $250,000 prize pool.
The closed qualifier had teams such as Major champions Gambit, G2, BIG, and Ninjas in Pyjamas, but it was finally Adil "ScreaM" Benrlitom and co. who made it all the way through the brackets for a spot at ESL One New York.
Envy started their journey beating HellRaisers, 2-0, before going into a derby against the other French team, G2. The boys in blue were able to take that match, 2-1, earning themselves a spot in the final against Gambit. The Kazakh-Russian team, on the other hand, beat local rivals FlipSid3, as well as BIG, in the semifinals, on their way to the last match of the qualifier.
Finally it was Envy who came out on top. It took the French team just two maps, Nuke and Train, which they won keeping their CIS rivals under ten rounds each, 16-9 and 16-5 respectively, to clinch their spot for the main event. With this, Envy take the seventh out of eight spots at ESL One New York, with the North American qualifier still pending to round out the tournament.
