After a crazy Saturday at the 2018 Call of Duty World League Championship, two of the top three teams at the event have been decided.
Evil Geniuses and Team Kaliber are moving on to the winners bracket finals to face each other—but they’ve both clinched top three placings. EG took out Lightning Pandas and Team Envy on Saturday to punch their ticket to the winners finals, while Team Kaliber earned their spot with wins over Elevate and eUnited.

While they can’t go any lower than top three, there are still several teams gunning for them down in the losers bracket. FaZe Clan, Team Envy, Luminosity, and eUnited all still remain in the hunt for the $600,000 grand prize.
Luminosity are arguably the most dangerous thanks to the current win streak they’re on. After losing to Elevate to open up bracket play, LG have defeated Rise Nation, Lightning Pandas, and Red Reserve to move into the losers bracket quarterfinals.
.@ACHES WINS THE GUNFIGHT!!!

LG will have a meeting with eUnited tomorrow and FaZe Clan get their shot at revenge against Team Envy, the team that sent them down to the losers bracket.
Matches resume at 11am CT tomorrow, a day where the champion of the biggest tournament of the year will be crowned.
