Project Eversio Win the MRO: Battalion 1944 Open

It's been one incredible journey this past month, as we observed our first event of the year commence and end in great fashion. Kicking off on the 19th of March, we've been providing interviews and content non-stop to make the event even greater - and what a month it's been. It all boiled down to the LAN portion of the MRO: Battalion 1944 Open which occurred last weekend. Here's what went down. 

Heading into the weekend, the group stages were complete and so were a few of the early bracket matches. Straight off the bat, no ridiculous match results came through except for the surprising turnout in which an underperforming Paradigm6 managed to beat out dOUBTFUL, who then went home early after facing EvH in the Losers Bracket. Paradigm6 also knocked Ephica out in the early bracket.

EvH had found themselves in the Losers Bracket after losing to a dominant Project Eversio during the Quarter Final. With that being said, EvH then went on a fantastic run to reach the grand final. Sweeping Paradigm and dOUBTFUL aside with ease, it was Anarchy which gave them problems in the Losers Final and dragged them a Game 3. Still, EvH managed to prevail to the grand final to meet the unopposed Project Eversio - who had only lost one map up to that point, to the hands of none other than EvH. 

Winning the event was quite a daunting task for EvH - so much so, that Project Eversio didn't let Event Horizon win. Nonetheless, the grand final consisted of some amazing plays with a tangible tension in the air. Project Eversio seemed to grow more vocal with each victorious round, while EvH did their best to remain calm and collected. With the series being a best-of-5, the contested maps slipped into the hands of Project Eversio, one after another until a 3-0 sweep was achieved. 

Project Eversio was extremely expressive of their victory, taking to social media to rejoice in their new trophy and spot within the international event hosted by Gallantry Events. A well-deserved victory. 

The following are the final standings:

1. Project Eversio
2. EvH
3. Anarchy
4. Paradigm6
5. Ephica
6. Doubtful Gaming
7. Delixx
8. Anoxia

We hope you all enjoyed watching and participating as much as we loved organizing it!Overall, it seems that Project Eversio was the best-prepared team for the event. The level of competition was superb, especially for a title which was recently released. Gamers.com.mt looks forward to creating more events in the coming year.
