Royal Never Give Up lose 8 straight games, drop to lower bracket at TI11

This TI is shaping up to be one of the most exciting events in the Dota 2 scene as of late. It can be boiled down to several great matches that we have been seeing all throughout the group stage between several evenly-matched teams. This includes the great performance by Team Liquid and Team Secret after their LCQ wins all the way up to the upper bracket at the main stage. But not everything has been great so far.

Day three of the group stage was quite a tumultuous one for viewers and players alike. With the wave of infections going on, first with Thunder Awaken’s position four player Matthew being hospitalized after a stomach infection, following up with several players from team Royal Never Give Up getting infected with COVID. While it was only their midlaner Somnus who was confirmed to be positive for COVID-19, a further series of tests revealed that every player in the team with the exception of xNova was infected.
