Day 2 of Intel Extreme Masters Oakland kicks off at 10 AM PST with two best-of-three semi-final matches.
The first semi-final will be between Europe’s Unicorns of Love — who advanced after a commanding victory over INTZ E-Sports in the tournament’s first day — facing off against North America’s Team SoloMid — who are coming in after their first round bye. The Rift Herald recently had a chance to talk to TSM coach Parth Naidu to get a little more information about how the team prepared for the tournament and handled the return of their old AD Carry Jason “Wildturtle” Tran.
The day’s second semi-final will have Korea’s Longzhu gaming — coming off a convincing defeat of Chiefs eSports — taking on Flash Wolves who also had a bye.
