Misa closed Group A with a 2–0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt, taking Split 13–8 and edging Haven 18–16 in the decider. (bo3.gg)) Enterprise opened Group B with a 2–0 victory over Barça eSports, winning Pearl 14–12 and crushing Bind 13–2 in the second map. (strafe.com)) Enterprise sits atop Group B with a 2–0 record and a +30 round differential after Day 2. (vlr.gg)) S2G swept MIR 2–0 in Group D and is recorded with a 2–0 map tally and a +19 round differential after their opening matches. (vlr.gg)) Team Stallions was marked as having forfeited its Group C fixtures—match pages show at least one Stallions game declared forfeited and the team’s VLR profile lists multiple FFL entries. (thespike.gg)) The tournament table reflects those forfeits: Stallions are 0–3 with no rounds recorded, which automatically awarded wins to their Group C opponents. (vlr.gg)) Group C now lists UCAM Esports Club 2–0 (+16), Pixel Lumina 2–1 (–14) and Joblife 1–1 (–2) after the forfeit-affected slate. (vlr.gg)) The Challengers group stage runs March 19–23 and the playoffs are scheduled for March 26–29, so group winners have a narrow window to secure the single automatic playoff spot.
