RESULTS: Echo Fox Earn Their First Win In H1Z1 Pro League Week Seven Round Two
By Ford James ·
Echo Fox picked up their first win, but all eyes are on the top three as Rogue leapfrogged Epsilon eSports to secure second place, while SetToDestroyX's lead is starting to dwindle.
Round one saw Rogue control the entire game, winning the round by an incredible 25 points and overtaking Epsilon for second place in the overall league. Luminosity haven’t been impressing last week or so far this week and that seems to continue going into round two this week, losing two players very early on.
Cloud9 Chappie rushed Epsilon, taking out Melander with a swift shotgun shot to the temple. OA pushed Gankstars with immense success, taking out four players and only losing one. Early engagements happened all over the map due to the location of the circle, encapsulating a lot of Runamok Lake, and Rogue once again took advantage of this by lighting up the killfeed with multiple kills on current league leaders, SetToDestroyX.
They eventually took out StDx, but risked it all by being caught heavily by the incoming gas storm, meaning they’re down to three players. It could still be enough though, as Rogue have five kills while StDx and Epsilon only have one apiece, with the former already being eliminated. That number swiftly rose to nine after a fight with IG, while Echo Fox took out Noble to put themselves in the top 10 for the 1.25x score multiplier.
Due to all the fights, Huskers is the last remaining member for Rogue while Epsilon still have four players up. That didn’t last for long though, as Huskers fell to only secure the first multiplier, while Epsilon picked off the rest of Vitality to secure the first place for the time being. The rest of the remaining players fell like sacks of potatoes around them, with Echo Fox being the final team vs one player from Alliance at the end.
After week seven, with just three weeks left in split one, Rogue have overtaken Epsilon in the second spot and lead them by 10 points. SetToDestroyX are still hanging on at the top with a 15 point lead, despite a poor performance in the last two weeks, but how long can that last?
