YMCA of Greater Rochester in partnership with Metro Sports & Entertainment Group will open two gaming labs for youth and teens this year. Team Liquid is alone atop of the standings at 2-0 after regular-season play Sunday for Stage 2 of North American qualifying for the Overwatch Champions Series.
A 3-1 win over LuneX Gaming kept Team Liquid at the top, while Dallas Fuel notched their first win in sweeping last-place The Kafe, 3-0, in the day's other match.
The six teams in contention will engage in round-robin matches during the regular season, with the top four qualifying for the regional playoffs, which will be double-elimination. All matches are best-of-five until the grand final, which will be best-of-seven.
In addition to the $75,000 prize pool, the top four Stage 2 finishers will advance to Stage 3. The three finishers will also qualify for the Midseason Championship.
To kick off Sunday play, Dallas Fuel handled The Kafe, winning 2-0 on Ilios, 3-1 on New Junk City and 3-2 on Numbani.
Team Liquid rebounded from a 2-1 loss to LuneX Gaming on Ilios with three straight victories on Rialto (4-3), King's Row (5-4) and Runasapi (138.25m-125.14m).
