Last night in Orlando Team Ambush pulled through with the sickest comeback in MLG history against Str8Rippin for the win.
In an absolutely amazing five game series, Ambush has just knocked the San Diego Champions, Str8 Rippin, into the Losers Bracket. With just about everyone in the venue crowded around the station, Ambush pulled off possibly one of the greatest come from behind victories in MLG history. Trailing 37-47 in Game 5, Team Slayer on the Pit, Ambush mounted an unthinkable comeback, netting 13 of the next 14 kills to take the match 50-48. The crowd went absolutely insane. A late game OS grab may have been the deciding factor, as a member of Ambush was able to grab the power-up unscathed, which allowed it to full charge. He then quickly took out two Str8 Rippin players who were also at the OS, and weakened another, who was quickly killed. This tied the game at 47. It was at this time that all hell broke loose. With the crowd screaming, it seemed as if every player on the map decided to rush at the same time. While players yelled call-outs as loud as possible, trying to be heard over the frenzied crowd, the final kill was a timely assassination in the sword building.
Now Str8 has to fight their way through the losers bracket. Keep an eye out today to see who takes home the gold in Orlando…or should I say a huge check.
