Let’s see what happened on the third day of CDL 2023 Major V games
NY Subliners leave Las Vegas Legion and Florida Mutineers on the road
After falling in the first match of this Major V to the hosts, Toronto Ultra, the NY Subliners boys managed to crush each opponent they faced in the Elimination Brackets. First, it was LA Guerrillas, then Las Vegas Legion, and finally, the Florida Mutineers, all of them with crushing 3-0 scores.
Now, against Las Vegas Legion, the Subliners started with an excellent victory at Embassy (Hardpoint) by 250-136. Then, the series ended in the same scenario (Breenbergh Hotel) but in two different game modes, Search&Destroy and Control. The Subliners earned 6-4 and 3-2 victories to stay alive in the Major V and send Las Vegas Legion home.

Next, the Subliners faced the Florida Mutineers, a team with a big push after an excellent win on the first day of Major V against OpTic Texas. However, this time they could do nothing against the Subliners and ended up losing 0-3.
It all started in Mercado Las Almas (Hardpoint), where we enjoyed a balanced match, but, finally, the Subliners managed to keep the dominance on the map to take the victory by 250-236. The teams then moved to El Asilo, where the Subliners scored an excellent victory in Search&Destroy by 6-1 and Control by 3-2 to seal their ticket to Round 4 of the Elimination Bracket.

As a result, the Ultra fell to the Elimination Brackets, where a few hours later, they faced LA Thieves, whom they defeated with relative ease in just three games.
