Only one day into the Stage 2 Playoffs, weve seen one team dominate its opposition, and another team blow a shocking 3-1 series lead. Lets take a look at the events that transpired.Optic Gaming lost. Now what?Ill be honest. When I suggested in my preview for the Stage 2 Playoffs that Luminosity Gaming would play Optic Gaming tough, I thought it would take a game or two off the Green Wall. I certainly did not anticipate it knocking off Optic Gaming 4-3 on Thursday, rallying back from a 3-1 deficit to earn one of the most surprising victories in recent memory.To its credit, Luminosity certainly earned this victory. After falling behind in the series 3-1, everything looked to be falling in favor of Optic Gaming. With a Round 5 Hardpoint match next, it seemed likely that the dominant team in the Call of Duty World League would cruise through its best game mode. But Luminosity clutched up, gelling as a team at the best possible moment to win the next three rounds. Renato Saints Forza in particular was incredible, first coming up with a tremendous six kill streak to end the Round 5 Hardpoint, then putting together a 38/22 KD (kill/death ratio) in Round 6 Uplink, stymieing the vaunted Optic offense with an array of skilled kills and brilliant positioning.Hes one of the best of all-time, said teammate Jeremy Studyy Astacio. Hes the one that brought the momentum back for our team. He was definitely the MVP of the series.Using that surge from Saints, Luminosity rallied together as a team and put away Optic in the final Search and Destroy, with each member putting together a positive KD (kill/death ratio) in the deciding round.Despite the impossible odds, Luminosity climbed back from the chambers of defeat, securing a spot in the semifinals while simultaneously turning the Stage 2 Playoffs on its head. But if you thought it would be satisfied, think again.We are staying on top of our game and not getting complacent with just one series win, said Michael SpaceLy Schmale. Its time to win this event, but we are going to take it one match at a time.Itll face the winner of Fridays Dream Team vs. FaZe Clan match to determine who will earn the right to play in the Stage 2 finals.Envious of JohnEnVyUs was certainly expected to win its opening matchup against H2K on Thursday. But its dominance against the No. 8 seed quickly turned into a statement game kind of performance, as it earned a convincing 4-0 victory. While most of EnVyUs played well, it was Johnathon John Perez that stood out the most.Pick a round, any round: John made a huge difference. Round 1 Hardpoint: a 29/16 KD. Six of the 10 points in a Round 2 Uplink. An unbelievable play in which he was able to 1 vs. 4 H2K to claim a Game 6 win in Round 3 Search and Destroy. Multiple strategic maneuvers to help his team earn a 5-1 Round 4 Capture the Flag win.In short, John did it all. However, despite posting a combined 76/63 series KD, the EnVyUs slayer seemed only caught up in his mistakes, though few and far between.I could definitely do a little better. There was just a couple of moments where I gave up a kill and we lost the hill because of it, or S&D rounds where I gave up a call and they pushed through, admitted John postgame.Mistakes or not, the EnVyUs team that took the field in the quarterfinals is a formidable foe, certainly one capable of claiming the Stage 2 crown. The real test will come Saturday, as EnVyUs will take on the winner of the Rise Nation vs. Cloud9 match taking place on Friday. Lorenzo Alexander Jersey .
