Regional Finals: EGX 2019 – European Regional Final Results

EGX 2019 – European Regional Final, held in London, UK from October 18th through 20th, is over and we have the final results! As a Regional Final this event consists of two separate tournaments. The first is an Open Event which can be entered by anyone and is scored like a Premier Event. The second is the Regional Final itself which is an invitation only tournament consisting of the top 8 players on the CPT Europe regional leaderboard standings. No points are awarded for the Final.

NASR|Big Bird wins both Open Tournament and Regional Finals!

It’s been an absolutely incredible year for NASR|Big Bird, who hails from the United Arab Emirates, and this incredible feat makes it even more so. Not only did Big Bird win the Open Tournament, which is a Premier Event on its own, but he also won the Regional Final event as well. He also won both without being losing a set, staying in the Winners bracket the whole time. In the Open Tournament he defeated the Norway’s NVD|Phenom in Grand Finals 3-1 and in the Regional Final he got the win over United Kingdom’s CYG BST|Infexious 3-1 as well.

One of his most impressive achievements this year is making top 5 in both of this year’s new Super Premier events so far. He got 2nd place at Evo and a month and a half later got 5th place at the Asia Premier. He also has a pair of Ranking Event wins among other impressive placements.

He is unquestionably already qualified for Capcom Cup this year due to points, so the automatic qualifying spot up for grabs for winning the Regional Final will instead open another spot for a player to qualify via points on the leaderboard standings. Congratulations to Big Bird for his stunning victory at EGX. He is going to be a force to be reckoned with at Capcom Cup.
