If you missed the action, here's a quick recap of Day 4 at the ESL Challenger League S50 APAC Cup 2.
Legion go down fighting
The action on the fourth day kicked off with Pakistani squad Legion facing UR in the lower bracket round 3 game. UR put up a near flawless show on their pick of Inferno, as the trio of Tw1nk1e17, z1ayr and reason powered the Chinese squad to a 13-4 win.
On their own pick of Dust2, the Pakistani team had the perfect pathway to victory after taking a two round lead on their CT side and picking up a big force win on their T side. Their T side though, didn't have much more to offer as UR turned it around to steal a 13-10 win to lock in the series 2-0.
The other lower bracket game saw the Mongolian derby between The Huns and NomadS, which was a tight affair with neither team willing to exit the event easily. NomadS nearly pulled off a combeack on their pick of Nuke, after starting 3-9 before The Huns held on a 13-10 win. On Ancient, it was a trade of rounds which saw the second map head to overtime and a 30 bomb from nin9 saw The Huns get over the line at 16-14.

The other game in the upper bracket of the day saw Chinggis Warriors face Last Bullet and it was two big wins for the Mongolian team, going 13-6 on Last Bullet's pick of Ancient and then closing out the series with a 13-5 win on their own pick of Nuke to move into the upper bracket final.
