RES Regional Champions 2024Nemiga beat UNPAID to win RES Regional Champions
The team earned a $150,000 payday after reverse-sweeping the grand final.
Nemiga have claimed a title victory at RES Regional Champions following a 2-1 win over UNPAID in the grand final, recovering from a loss on Mirage (10-13) with aplomb by closing out Ancient (13-7) and Anubis (13-6) in dominant fashion.
It is the first international LAN trophy for the Belarusian organization and was well-earned by the players after they suffered an opening series loss to Sangal in the group stage. With backs against the wall, Nemiga showed tenacity and battled past Aurora and Fluxo to reach playoffs, where a 2-0 upset over fnatic put the team through to the title decider.
"Before the tournament, we didn't play a single official for a few weeks I think, because I went back to my home, not at bootcamp, not playing," Beksultan "khaN" Ospan said on the desk after the victory. "I wasn't so confident about the tournament, I was like, 'It is how it is,' but we gained form throughout the tournament.
"I figured out how to play (laughs) because my form the last two months wasn't so good, but I'm happy with how I played the last few games."
UNPAID, meanwhile, go home with $50,000 to their name, a welcome financial boon for the players and coach currently locked in a dispute with BLEED over alleged non-payment.
Aleksandar "kassad" Trifunović's side will lament not tripling that take-home purse, though, after letting a 1-0 series lead in the grand final go to waste.
Potent efforts from Nemanja "nexa" Isaković and Joakim "jkaem" Myrbostad allowed UNPAID to edge out a victory on their Mirage pick, but Nemiga's individuals proved better on the following maps as they stormed to a 13-7 win on Ancient — off the back of a 1.84-rated performance from Ivan "zweih" Gogin — and were unrelenting on the T side of the Anubis decider, quickly closing the map 13-6 to take the series.
