Good Chi Gaming vs Red Team 1   Sunday, 24th of April, 21:00 CEST     Top playoff action returns for the second day in a row with the first meeting between division big 4 teams(Vitagen, Good Chi, Evo, Red Team 1).      In our top bracket semi-finals, we have a tasty matchup between some of the SLE best and most entertaining teams – hunters of good sleep, good chi gaming, and wumbo-combo enjoyers, Red Team 1. These two teams already gave us an action-packed bo2 at the very end of the season where both teams showed highs and lows. Both teams blamed the draft for their losses, but I believe that it was just a well-played two games from both sides, with some mistakes, but overall class, setting up these close semi-finals. That time we were left hanging with score 1-1, but this time we will get closure in a bo3 series. Word of the series will be – team fighting. Good Chi Gaming has found their best success in team fighting, while Red Team 1 is no stranger t...

                 Team Evolution vs Zero Gaming - Saturday 23rd of April.                                                                                      22:30 CEST In our only d1 v d1 matchup in Top bracket round 1, SLE hyped newcomers Team Evolution will battle SLE veterans Zero Gaming. Looking at this matchup purely off stats and ranks, it can be a very competitive bo3, but looking into the numbers and seasons they are having, the picture turns much grimmer for Zero Gaming. While they are 1-1, Zeros' win was due to Evo failing to arrive at their game in time. Evo has also shown competitive performance in their games vs Good Chi Gaming and Vitagen, while Zero has failed to take a w...

 SLE Playoffs     SLE playoffs have started and after Easter break will return at a faster pace this weekend. But before that, let's look into how playoffs have played so far. We have seen 3 series and 4 teams play so far, the series has been fast-paced with back and forward action. There have been Penta kills and turbo ints, but one thing is for sure, I cannot wait for the games to return.    Good Chi Gaming - Runtime     Playoffs opened with a hyped matchup between one of the best Division 1 teams in GCG versus the division 2 powerhouse Runtime. Before the series, the main storylines were that division 2 was seen as clearly inferior to division 1 leaving Runtime with a chip on their shoulder not only to prove them but defend division 2 pride overall.       And so they did, first game might have been a bit of a nerve check for Runtime as Good Chi went fast and loose on them early game, quickly building massive leads and taking the ...

 SLE Play-offs Runtime vs Jalapeons - Bottom bracket round 1. Friday 15th of April, 21:00 CEST      SLE Play-offs returns this Friday with another division 2 banger as we get our second chance to see both Jalapeons and Runtime. Both teams are coming off decent showings in their first series of the playoffs and will be looking to keep their tournament alive in this widely anticipated clash. The loser is out and after this series, only 2 division two teams will be left.      Spice vs Salt. Jalapeons have just eliminated a team that I would call Runtime Lite since CCG playstyle was quite similar to Runtime, but I say lite for a reason. Runtime has been a more disciplined, cleaner, and coordinated version of CCG showing competitive laning and decisiveness with the play they are making. Can Jalapeons continue to stir the pod by adding some drops of hot sauce to the SLE playoffs bracket with another upset or will Runtime prevail icing their hot-headed d2 riv...

 SLE Records      While we wait for the next SLE playoff game I got something for the community and my fellow stats lovers(Sovonix: "Check my damage dealt numbers"), SLE records in single-game achievements. We have multiple tournaments so far: opening tournament, season 1, season 2 play-ins, and the current season 2, and the sample size finally is big enough to announce the records, some of the records are still standing since the very first - opening tournament, while others have been set as recent as season 2 playoffs. I invite you to take a dive into numbers with me.      Disclaimers: Only games that have checkable records of them - post-match screenshots or youtube vods. If a record was matched it won't go over the previous record. Tieing someone's record still puts you right behind them. Most Kills in a game     All 3 of the record-setting performances came at high stake, clutch games to remember. 1. Addi - 21(SLE Season 2 Game 1 between...

 SLE Playoffs Play-ins CCG vs JAL - Sunday, 10th of April, 20:00 CET.      SLE playoffs continue with the first matchup between two division 2 teams. The well-organized machine - Curtain Call Gaming and the rebels Jalapeons. Let's see how these two division two challengers match up. Curtain Call Gaming vs Jalapeons                       In our play-in playoffs matchup, it is a showdown between two, division 2 teams -  Curtain Call Gamings team Lethal Rampage is going to match up against the spicy Jalapeos. CCG comes off their best season in SLE contending for 1st place in division 2 til very last week, meanwhile, Jalapeons have had their fair share of struggles. At times, Jalapeons have looked like possible d1 contenders, but their inability to close out games has left them with a 0-6 record against the top 3 division 2 teams. This is going to be a match of controlled and standard gameplay and pick...
