In order to achieve this, they had to go through multiple NA teams to reach first place in the Qualifier. This included NightShade eSports, Gorilla Gang and Bravado Gaming. In all matchups TeamOne performed amicably, beating NightShade 16 – 0, while Gorilla Gang and Bravado Gaming lost in best-of-three matches.
