The team went up against Vision Strikers, but it fell short. While it lost 0-2 against the Korean team, it was one of the most competitive matchups of the event so far. Despite Vision Strikers taking an early 8-4 lead on Haven, Paper Rex managed to hold on and it even led to a tactical timeout, making Vision Strikers reassess its strategies. Vision Strikers ended up winning the first game.

The second match of the night started with a 9-3 lead in Paper Rex’s favor but Vision Strikers came back with a seven-round winstreak in the second half of the matchup on Icebox. The match ended 13-11 in Vision Striker’s favor. Paper Rex will be going up against SuperMassive Blaze on 15 September in an elimination match, which will decide if the Southeast Asian team will remain in contention for a Valorant Masters Berlin win or not.
