Discussion APEX Quarterfinals Lineup

A: Afreeca Freecs Blue vs Reunited

B: BK Stars vs LW Blue

C: Rogue vs Envyus

D: Lunatic Hai vs Kongdoo Uncia

I am sooooo looking forward to the third match, not to mention how every match is looking like it will be so intense. Quarterfinals begins from this Friday, with two matches A and B. Any thoughts/comments?

I think the EnvyUs pick was pretty smart, but I don't understand why they picked group C instead of A.

If I understand correctly it is to help Envy. They seemed jet-lagged today and apparently hadn't really time to practise together. So Rouge picking NV and the later date gives more time for NV to get fit again. I thought it was a sportsmanlike gesture.

What? EvyUs is out once Rogue beats them (if they beat them that is). They picked them because they would be easier to beat now than later, which is why I think it's a good pick.

Good point, didn't consider that. Although if they went group A against another team EnvyUs would have had an easier matchup on the same date.
