KUALA LUMPUR – Paper Rex (PRX) survives to live another day at the Valorant Champions Tour (VCT) Masters Madrid, after overcoming the challenge of Team Heretics at the Madrid Arena early this morning.
PRX beat Team Heretics 2-1.
Coming off a stinging defeat to China’s EDward Gaming on Friday, PRX had to win to keep their campaign in Spain alive.
The Singapore-based team – represented by Malaysian Ahmad Khalish ‘d4v41’ Rusyaidee Nordin, Indonesians Jason ‘f0rsakeN’ Susanto and Aaron ‘mindfreak’ Leonhart, Cahya ‘Monyet’ Nugraha and Russia’s Ilya ‘something’ Petrov – got off to a good start winning their map pick Sunset 13-8.
But the home team levelled the score 1-1 by winning on their map pick Lotus 13-10.
The deciding map was Split and PRX showed their mettle as they put on a dominating performance to win the map 13-7 and seal the victory.
PRX will next face France’s Karmine Corp to hopefully take their place in the playoff stage tomorrow morning. – March 18, 2024
