A big group of Brazilian fans rejoiced in the Rod Laver arena as the last Australian team was eliminated on home soil.

Imperial recovered from a 16-5 loss to countrymen paiN and took out Grayhound to qualify for the playoffs of ESL Challenger Melbourne, claiming the last avilable spot. Gabriel "⁠FalleN⁠" Toledo led the charge for his team, posting a 1.44 rating in a 2-0 victory, 16-8 on Inferno and 16-12 on Nuke.

The loss meant the end of the road for Grayhound, the team that represented ORDER until the organization was hit by financial problems in August. Out-of-game issues were combined with in-game ones, as the team was also forced to play the event with their former member Jordan "⁠Hatz⁠" Bajic in place of the newest arrival Declan "⁠Vexite⁠" Portelli due to roster lock issues.

"If anyone needs to buy me a beer, I'm down. Or 20. Because I need a drink," Joshua "⁠INS⁠" Potter said in a post-match interview, having lost the final round of Nuke from a 5v3 situation to leave the Australian fans without a domestic team to support. However, a loud contingent of Brazilian supporters present in Melbourne will have a reason to come back on the final day, as Imperial and paiN are looking to challenge for the title in the four-team playoffs.

Vinicius "⁠VINI⁠" Figueiredo, who also looked comfortable in the series and averaged a 1.33 rating, said after the game that the support his team got from the Brazilian fans was a "preview of the Rio Major," scheduled for October-November.
