The ESL One Los Angeles Online Southeast Asian tournament has concluded with Fnatic besting their SEA rivals after a rocky start in the group stage.
Here’s a look back at the five best plays from the tournament.
5. Mikoto baits and dodges Moon’s Boundless Strike
On the first day of the competition, BOOM Esports upset Fnatic in the first match of the tournament with an unbelievable Ember Spirit performance from Rafli Fathur “Mikoto” Rahman.
In the third game of the series, Mikoto demolished Kam Boon “Moon” Seng’s Monkey King by using his Sleight of Fist ability that baited the Boundless Strike stun, then dodged it with a perfectly placed Fire Remnant.
4. Xepher baits BOOM Esports with a stolen Surge
On the second day of the SEA group stage, Geek Fam’s Kenny “Xepher” Deo baited the entire BOOM Esports squad with a stolen Surge he got from Saieful “Fbz”Ilham’s Dark Seer.
This caused the entire Dire squad to over-commit, letting Karl “Karl” Jayame’s Pangolier punish them with his Rolling Thunder ultimate in the middle lane.
