Team Heretics vs Paper Rex – EMEA or Pacific will see their first team sent home
When it comes to Paper Rex, Gen.G gave them 2nd Place in the VCT Pacific Kickoff. And they fell hard to EDward Gaming at the start of Masters Madrid. Perhaps their chaotic style needs to be tightened up a bit to make it further this time around?
Whatever way you slice it, this should be a hard fought series from both sides. Teams just play differently when it comes to elimination matches. They know their life in the tournament is on the line, so expect Team Heretics vs Paper Rex during Masters Madrid Day 4 to be a banger.

Map 1: Sunset
A very close pistol round went the way of Paper Rex to kick this one off. Team Heretics managed to squeeze out the next two, however, putting the hurt on PRX’s economy. They had to wait another round to get their second on the board. Team Heretics banned together to prevent a tie, with a nice retake.
With the crowd firmly behind the hometown Heretics org, they took an early lead. That wasn’t enough to stun Paper Rex, though. The Pacific team fought back hard to keep it tight. That gave the momentum to keep it tied at halftime.
Another pistol round was Paper Rex’s, giving them a one round lead. A Flawless Round followed to give them another. With weapons in their hands, however, MiniBoo led the charge onto B Site and held it down for their seventh.
