UK League: Plenty to play for in final week

The UK League is poised for an exciting finish to the group stages after the last round of games further blurred the already murky play-offs picture.

NVision’s win over Enclave and Demise’s demolition of MnM – their fourth win in a row – left four teams with 7-5 records taking the third to sixth positions in the standings, with only the top four making the play-offs.

NVision’s toplaner Efan admitted the team had gone back to basics to try and book a play-offs berth. “All our losses have come from us trying to do something, so if we play a standard game plan or use our cohesion as a team, we can take it home,” he said.

Demise’s team manager Ceejay Shaw has been tweaking the line-up to get Demise out of a slow start. “As soon as we brought in [bot laner] ProxeYY we had players with a connection together,” he said. “Also bringing in Beeley – he was amazing today – we had all the parts, we just had to put them all together.”

At the end of the night, leaders Munster had to regroup hastily to avoid handing Bulldog Esports their first win of the campaign, proving that nothing is certain in the UKL.
