Tyloo had a dominant run through the final group stage taking down all its competitors to finish clean at the top of the table. Alpha red posed no threat to Chinese squad while Lucid Dream did put up a tough fight but nothing that Tyloo could not have handled.
It took all 30 rounds but @tyloogaming came out on top 16-14 against Lucid Dreams on Overpass. Map 2 coming up next! #ESLProLeaguehttps://t.co/q6BOH84Rsz pic.twitter.com/cQ9fIVTAA1

MVP PK was the only clash which that dragged until the last map. Claiming the first map, Dust 2 in their favour Tyloo had a tough first half on Mirage. Conceding 13 rounds in a row to MVP PK, the Chinese squad pulled off a seemingly impossible comeback to take the match into overtime. Though the end result was a loss for Tyloo, it was a great run to dampen the morale of their opponents.
Tyloo was surely feeling great after that comeback on Mirage as they went on to pull off a phenomenal CT side play on Inferno. Holding down the sites by reading their opponents down to their every move, Tyloo took the map and the series getting the revenge on them for their previous loss at the finals of the ESL One Cologne 2019 - Asia Qualifier.
Another 3K by @BnTeTCSGO, this time in a 1v3 and @tyloogaming takes the 2-1 victory over @mvp_gg. They are one step closer to making it to #ESLProLeague Occitanie 2019! pic.twitter.com/sN0Uof2qGT
