Scouting report
Crimson Vanguard play like the round is already late. Every map starts with a coordinated sprint at the most contested space on the board, and if it lands the series is usually over by map two. When it does not land they have spent two years learning how to lose slowly instead of instantly — which is exactly what carried them through an unbeaten Group B.
