Riyadh Masters: Quest Esports Await at MENA Grand Finals

The Riyadh Masters has not officially started, but the excitement leading to it has already exceeded expectations. With the MENA Qualifiers already having big names, it will lead to a brutal showdown. Quest Esports has found its sweet spot and is one step away from joining the Riyadh Masters. While rivals Kuroky and Puppey faced each other, Quest Esports went against newcomers, Dota Enjoyers. Being a new team, the level of competition was a bit much. Quest Esports made quick work of them and went on to beat Nigma Galaxy to reach the Grand Finals.

Nigma Galaxy Vs. Team Secret

Game 1

Game 1 was a complete disaster for Secret. With a kill score of 24-1. Nigma flexed on them hard. Mikey was a monster on his mid BatRider with 11 kills. After Nigma won all three lanes, they did not allow Secret to breathe. Completely locking down the map, they ended the game in 20 minutes.

Game 2

Team Secret made a strong comeback in Game 2, but it was not strong enough. With a 54-minute game, Nigma finally came out on top. This time Secret figured out how to shut down Mikey and successfully did so. But Yuma's Meepo pick was a surprise for Secret. Even though they were able to make quick work of the Meepo, it was Nigma's quick wit that won them the game. With Secret's Ancient exposed, Nigma bodied their heroes in Secret's base, distracting them long enough for Meepo to blink behind Secret and hit the Ancient.

Quest Esports Vs. Nigma Galaxy

Game 1

Nigma Galaxy made a questionable draft choice by picking Wraith King. While WK burst down heroes, he could not sustain in fights. Ammar's Doom completely shut down Timbersaw, leaving Nigma with no offlane. Nigma called GG at 43 mins.

Game 2

Nigma won game 2 with MinD_ContRoL's Axe popping off. With GH on Pugna to support him, the duo won their lane. MC went on to get 10 kills, and Pugna with 24 assists out of a total 31 kill score. This gave time for Yuma to farm early and participate in fights.

Game 3

In Game 3, Nigma won their lanes and controlled the pace of the game. But as the game went on, Quest Esports kept ganking Batrider. Quest picked their team fights and timed their skills perfectly not allowing Terrorblade to dish out damage. With plenty of bursts coming from Quest's heroes, Nigma tapped out at 41 minutes.
