Later the actual showmatch started on Haven. Interestingly all players from both teams pre-agreed to some in-game challenges like selecting the same set of characters, playing with high DPI, rushing 5 stacks on a single bomb site, and more. Official match casters had a really hard time keeping up with 10 Jett players fighting mid-air knife battles while utilizing 30 clouds of smoke on a single bomb site.
Match Result:

Aftermath
The overall vibe of the match was friendly and remained so throughout the whole match. An Aimlab tournament also took place where Team Liquid proved they have a better aim than their contemporaries. However, players are still looking forward to the “First Strike” tournament where Team Liquid will have to establish a strong foothold in the competitive VALORANT scene. G2 on the other hand already has multiple consecutive tournaments wins in their bag.
