“OH MY GOD WE MADE PRO LEAGUE,” Vodery said on social media after receiving the news.
While Oversleepers did not qualify for ALGS through the Pre-Season Qualifiers, the team did have some impressive results. Across the four weeks of play, the team placed in the top 20 three times and even recorded a fifth-place finish in week three.
While some fans might be disappointed that Tripods were not invited into the league, there is still time for more teams to merge and open up spots for the squad. The North American ALGS competition kicks off on January 19 and will be the start of thefirst year of play with partnered teams.
