The German LoL champion has to pack his bags. Schalke 04 Evolution went into the EU Masters as favourite, but didn’t make it out of the group phase. A German team is still in the group.
A defeat in the tie-breaker against Spain’s number two Movistar Rider sealed the elimination of the second squad of squires at the current EU Masters, the second best international League of Legends league.
#EUMasters favorites and dropping out in Groups, name a more iconic duo… After a 50-minute nailbiter, we fall to @Movistar_Riders. Good luck in the remainder of the tournament! pic.twitter.com/BJuE93dqPe

Together with K1CK and the riders S04 shared the first two places in the group. But only two teams were allowed to enter the knockout round, so it went into the tiebreaker with the bitter end for the Gelsenkircheners. Gamerlegion with two German players had been eliminated before.
So only mousesports from the German Prime League is still competing in the EU Masters. The mice won first place in group D and will meet AGO Rogue in the playoffs.
