Brazilian, Indo and Thai Free Fire pros dominate Esports World Cup Group Stage Day 1

The First day of the Group Stage matches for the Free Fire Esports World Cup championship between groups A and B was dominated by teams from Brazil, Indonesia and Thailand. The top six spots after the first day saw a similar pattern, with two teams in particular dominating others.

Day 1 saw each team play six matches, with the opening match secured by Rex Regum Qeon (RRQ) Kazu with the highest number of finishes. RRQ is one of the most popular Asian esports organizations and to prove that, the team went on to take another win in the second match.

Following that, Buriram United Esports also activated to take the third victory and put themselves in the race. The team secured a second spot in the first match and has been making some steady progress until this moment. The fourth match saw them secure the third spot, but with a significant number of kills, while Brazil’s LOUD took home the win.

The final game saw P Esports take home their first victory, while LOUD and Buriram United once again secured second and third spots.

It remains to be seen if the second day will also see the same teams rise above or a surprise jump on the leaderboard from another team.
