After a long road, Philadelphia’s team stood victorious in Santa Monica.
This past weekend, the top twelve 3-player teams from across North America fought it out at the Red Bull eSports Studio in Santa Monica, California to determine the winner of Red Bull Proving Grounds! The teams battled over two days, concluding with a final East vs. West fight that saw the Philadelphia crew crush the favorite, well-established Los Angeles team in a surprising upset. The champions JB, Darkchild, and PIE Kami — along with five other top-ranking competitors — will thus represent Philadelphia at Evo 2017!
The team matches indeed proved hugely entertaining and pushed hype to new levels! You can rewatch the matches leading to Philadelphia’s victory on Red Bull eSports’ Twitch channel.
