August 7th villains challanged virtualetix for its first ladder match overall in the ESL Swisscom Hero League 5on5 Ladder.
After just a couple of first qualifier matches under the lead of ad.dy the virtualtix CS:GO lineup, the map pick falls onto de_overpass. Without experience together on this map the lineup had to rely barely on its raw personal skills. That not being enough, villains could contest successfully and win the match 16:4 and gain +23 ladder points.
One week later with some further training sessions, virtualetix could rebounce with a strong two-fold strike on de_mirage against PedaloPeek winning 16:10 and teh sovjets finishing 16:3, climbing up by +47 points.
On the second match day against the good old friends from nicetry, a 9:16 broke the double win on the still foreign map de_nuke.
The triplet challenge on Thursday started against epikk esports switzerland, where virtualetix could astonishlingly demonstrate its fitness against the scoreboard leaders of the ladder, eventhough ending the match on de_mirage with a 16:9 loss.
A quick 16:2 recovery against #sncpp on de_nuke gave some air again to breath, which unfortunately finally to be completely suffocated by a 5:16 from Arctic.wasabi on de_mirage.
Sunday is the last play day in the ESL Swisscom Hero League CS:GO Ladder and virtualetix will contest two or three more final matches, while waiting for the next qualification chance on August 25th.
