NewEgg's Summer Wanfest 10 is now over. Legacy aced the single elimination phase of the tournament, securing a spot in the finals. After making it to the semi finals, Legacy was defeated by rivaL Gaming 1-0 and moved down to the second bracket. After winning that bracket, Legacy got a second shot at rivaL Gaming for the championship, but was defeated 4-2.
Legacy defeats WKA for 1st place in TWL's 4v4 Squad Rush Ladder. Unfortunately, the 4v4 team leader, sMaCk will be on vacation for a month. We will do our best in NewEgg WanFest without him!
We have already won our first round in Alienware Arena against team 20ID. Our next match is vs. BoS on Monday on Arica Harbor.
The TWL 8v8 Conquest Season is on to the playoffs. Legacy finished the season 5-3, losing to Next Level, 20ID, and finally Rival in the last week 2-1. Wish us luck in the playoffs!
