CDL Dallas Home Series: Results, highlights, recap DAY 4 – SUNDAY, MAY 9 Match 1: Royal Ravens pile on struggling Surge Royal Ravens ensured they’d be the fifth seed in Group B after defeating the Surge, who finished Stage 3 winless at 0-5 and have now lost six in a row. London dominated the two Hardpoints, one of them being a 100-point club, as Surge keep looking for their first win since adding Decemate. Match 2: FaZe way too much for OpTic to handle In one of the most dominant victories of the season overall, FaZe handed OpTic their third straight loss with an extremely one-sided sweep. 100-point club to start, a four-round margin on S&D, and a perfect Control, the Atlanta stuffed the Green Wall at every turn, not allowing them to even think about a victory. https://twitter.com/CODLeague/status/1391496627626651649 Match 3: Empire get past ROKKR for key Group A win Group A all came down to one final match between Empire and ROKKR, and despite being considered underdogs, Dallas flexed their championship experience for a huge 3-1 win. Minnesota got a chance to start a reverse sweep effort after coming back from 0-2 down in the Control, but the defending champs were able to close it out in game four. HUGE 1v2 for @FeLo, who also gets the ace ⚡️ pic.twitter.com/jAguonPfCy — Dexerto Esports (@DexertoEsports) May 9, 2021 DAY 3 – SATURDAY, MAY 8 Match 1: Ultra finish perfect Stage 3 with Legion sweep Having already clinched the top seed in Group A, Ultra took care of business vs Legion to ensure that they’d be the only team in the CDL to finish Stage 3 undefeated. The series was pretty routine for the unstoppable Ultra, who won their ninth match in a row going back to the Stage 2 Major. Match 2: Subliners spoil Huke’s Thieves debut & clinch Group B Subliners will begin the Stage 3 Major in the second round of the Winners Bracket after they finished off Thieves 3-1 in Huke’s first match since arriving from Empire. The warning signs were there right from the get-go as NY 100-point clubbed LA in the first HP, although the series was pretty tight the rest of the way. https://twitter.com/CODLeague/status/1391132495459069961 Match 3: Mutineers’ tight victory of LAG secures Winners Bracket spot A very tight and back-and-forth match ended up going the way of Mutineers, who will finish Group A in second and start the Stage 3 Major in the Winners Bracket. Big plays from both sides extended the series all the way to game five, but Florida just did enough to gain the final edge once the dust settled. WOW 🤯 Absolutely disgusting shots from @ColtHavok! pic.twitter.com/3cveAJ50xI — Dexerto Esports (@DexertoEsports) May 8, 2021 DAY 2 – FRIDAY, MAY 7 Match 1: FaZe spoil Decemate’s debut in routine win They say “when it rains, it pours,” and it’s raining a lot in Seattle right now after FaZe handed Surge their fifth loss in a row. Decemate’s addition to the lineup was enough to spark an impressive opening Hardpoint victory, but nothing much after that as Atlanta finished off another win by taking the final three maps. Battle of the twins! @Arcitys clutches up for the 1v1 over @Prestinni 🔥 pic.twitter.com/SRf9ItByID — Dexerto Esports (@DexertoEsports) May 7, 2021 Match 2: Mutineers upset Empire in dominant fashion Empire fell to 1-2 since dropping Huke out of their lineup after Mutineers tore them apart in a surprisingly one-sided match. It felt as though Dallas never really got close to winning any of the three maps, and it doesn’t help with the opponents are pulling off 1v3 clutches in S&D. NASTY 1v3 for @CesarSkyz 🔥 *insert “”invested in his game”” joke here* pic.twitter.com/RDGWXIYAIq — Dexerto Esports (@DexertoEsports) May 7, 2021 DAY 1 – THURSDAY, MAY 6 Match 1: ROKKR survive Guerrillas for key Group A win ROKKR ensured themselves at least a fighting chance of finishing in the top three of Group A after muscling out a big 3-2 win over Guerrillas. The series was the definition of back and forth, with the two teams trading blows before Priestahh dropped a whopping 17 kills in game five to clinch the important victory. Match 2: Subliners beat OpTic to clinch Winners Bracket spot Subliners secured a spot in the Stage 3 Major Winners Bracket after taking care of OpTic with a statement 3-1 win. Not wanting to give the Green Wall a potential reverse sweep opportunity after dominating them in the first two maps, New York clutched up in the final moments of game four to grab the victory. https://twitter.com/CODLeague/status/1390432711987404800 CDL Dallas Home Series: Format & info Location: Online – Prize Pool: N/A – CDL Points: 10 per win – Maps & Modes: Hardpoint: Apocalypse, Checkmate, Garrison, Moscow, Raid – Search & Destroy: Checkmate, Express, Miami, Moscow, Raid – Control: Checkmate, Garrison, Raid – – Matches are best-of-five (HP, S&D, Control, HP, S&D) – Watch now: How Huke will improve LA Thieves CDL Dallas Home Series essentials 5 players to watch during Dallas Home Series – Huke makes LA Thieves an instant CDL contender – Reverse Sweep’s Enable & Pacman preview Dallas Home Series – CDL Power Rankings ahead of Dallas Home Series – LA Thieves sign Huke in place of TJHaLy – Seattle Surge replace Loony with Decemate – CDL Stage 3, Week 2 Team of the Week and MVP – CDL Paris Home Series results & recap – Watch now: OpTic’s biggest test yet?
