From there, it was on to face Unsal in the Grand Final. The Swede made his first few matches look easy, and was the one to send Tom down to the lower table, but HHezerS wouldnāt even give him time to catch his breath, snatching two dominant wins in a row to wrap things up.
All the players who didnāt qualify this time around will still have three more tournaments to try their skills, and amass more Global Series points even if they donāt take the top spot.
Winning the qualifier outright isnāt required for qualification in the Playoffs either, it is an automatic ticket in, but players with enough GS Points can still make the cut as well.
All of this is an effort to reach the FIFA 21 eWorld Cup sometime this summer, where the best of the best will battle it out for bragging rights and hundreds of thousands of dollars in prize money. So, be sure to stick with Dexerto as we get further into the Global Series season for 2021.
