2/9/2018 - 14:22

Chiefs have been crowned champions of the eXTREMESLAND 2018 ANZ Regional Finals over Tainted Minds after a 2-0 victory in the grand final.

The four-team offline finals took place this weekend at the Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne, Australia featuring Chiefs, Tainted Minds, ORDER and Legacy.

The best Oceanic squad Grayhound did not attend the event, who is currently in Sweden representing the region at the ongoing DreamHack Masters Stockholm.

Despite having to field Gfinity member Iyengaran "IyeN" Raju as a stand-in due to Sam "flickz" Jones' absence for undisclosed reasons, Chiefs ran over Legacy in the semis, 2-0 (16-7 on Mirage, 19-16 on Cache).

On the other side of the bracket, Yaman "yam" Ergenekon's men edged past ORDER in the three map series, with the veteran sitting at a 1.30 rating and +22 kill-death difference.

However, Tainted Minds' run came to an end as Mike "ap0c" Aliferis' crew replicated the same victorious scorelines from the previous match in the grand final and claimed their spot at the $100,000 tournament.
