Yopaj Scores a Total of 26 Kills as BOOM Esports Draws Series Against Execration
BOOM Esports’ Erin "Yopaj" Jasper Ferrer wreaked havoc in the series against Execration in the BTS Pro Series S8: Southeast Asia (SEA), scoring a total of 26 kills. Although the BO2 series ended in a 1-1 tie, the Philippines midlaner's performance stood out. In the first game, Boom Esports was cruising to victory at one point with Yopaj leading the way, but Execration made an incredible comeback to overshadow the player’s top performance. BOOM Esports, however, came back with a vengeance in the second game to obliterate enemy heroes all over the map and win in 21 minutes.
BOOM Esports vs Execration: Match Recap and Highlights
Recap
Game 1 saw a stunning turnaround from Execration. At the 10-minute mark, BOOM Esports was running away with the game with a 5k networth lead, and Yopaj was finding kills all over the map with his mid Queen of Pain. Interestingly, the opposite occurred following the 20-minute mark when BOOM Esports' heroes kept being eliminated one by one. With all that space, Tino's Medusa grew stronger, and Execration simply sped the midlane to end the match in 32 minutes.
Game 2 saw the utter destruction of Execration's heroes under the command of Yopaj. Laning went fairly evenly, but BOOM Esports picked up the pace shortly thereafter to hunt down their enemies. As Execration had no reliable initiation methods, they were restricted to a defensive strategy. They tried to hold on to the game, but they got sucked into their base and eventually tapped out after 21 minutes.
Highlights
Here are some highlights of the series.
Yopaj had a 15-2-3 KDA on Queen of Pain in the first game, and an 11-0-12 KDA on Tiny in the second game. His gameplay was increasingly aggressive today, as Execration was unable to cope with the pressure that he exerted. BOOM Esports holds on to second place in the points table of the BTS Pro Series S8: SEA after this series draw.
In the first game, Execration made a strong comeback by punishing its enemies' overextensions and making some important map maneuvers. The second game, however, seemed to be too difficult since they just could not play Dota 2. They occupy fourth place in the points table.
The next series for Execration in the BTS Pro Series S8: SEA will take place on 15th Sept, 2021, against Army Geniuses while BOOM Esports' next series will be against Team SMG on 17th Sept.
