The History between GE and Enigma
Global eSports and Enigma Gaming have gone face to face quite a few times and the scales haven’t always been in GE’s favour.
They have constantly been beaten by EG over the past few months including once in Skyesports’ own event of the WD Black Cup Season 3 which followed a King of the Hill format that GE had been winning the past two times. EG were the ones to come along and dethrone them in a shameful 3-0 defeat.
Today, as both Global eSports went against Enigma Gaming with the scars from the Skyesports WD Black Cup Season 3 and the first match of the tournament still fresh, the feelings of revenge were at a high for them, and boy did they make full use of them.

Map 3 being Split was where the real fight seemed to begin. Enigma Gaming put up a fierce first 3 rounds and Global fought back in response to take away the next 4. The give and take continues and the first half ended in a 7-5 in the favour of Global eSports.
The second half’s pistol round was taken by Enigma Gaming but then Global eSports came in with a thrifty to get the half buy. Another give and take of rounds ensues and we get to overtime. The first overtime gets to an equaliser, and so does the second. When Global eSports gets a lead in the third qualifier, Enigma Gaming calls for a strategic timeout and as soon as the game begins, Global eSports push A Ramps with Rossi getting the quickest 3K you would’ve ever seen.
