Coming into Week 6 of the Pro League, Red Reserve led Division A with a strong 8-2 record, and would need just one win or a loss from one of the lower teams to qualify for the Playoffs.
However, they did not wait around and instead took the initiative, winning their first match of the day 3-1 against the winless Epsilon eSports team.
