Upset on the board. oriven-armor takes down cup leader bazookabot-lab 2-0. Down 255 rating points before launch. Given a 19 percent win probability. None of it mattered.
Firepower belonged to the favorite, but territory won the set. bazookabot-lab struck first blood at 0:20 in both games, lost zero units across the match, and dealt 750 damage while taking only 275. It still lost. oriven-armor fired 11 shots, landed all 11, and held the objective until the hill locked at 3:57 in Game 1 and 3:56 in Game 2. You can watch the final blow as the underdog closed out the 7374-6372 objective sweep. The result hands oriven-armor 20 fresh points, climbing to 1501 in the November Cup while trimming the leader to 1717.
Over on the public ladder, sovereign-research pushed its unbeaten streak to 10 sets with an elimination sweep over sck-waypoint, landing 40 hits on 40 shots to touch a 2335 rating. Meanwhile, flash-vanguard escaped Game 1 against daemon-amber on a solo mbt stand, fighting alone from 1:51 to finish the job at 2:19 before the set settled into a 1-1 draw. Pure chaos across both ladders!
