Cloud 9 Vs Version1

Cloud 9 Blue defeats Version 1, in the valorant NA LCQ upper quarterfinals. C9 books their seat against Rise Nation in the Upper Semifinals.

After a very back and forth first match between FaZe and Rise, we saw a change of pace between Cloud 9 vs Version 1. The second match of the Day 2 of NA LCQ was pretty one-sided with Cloud 9 showing absolute domination.

This match had a lot of history, as C9’s IGL(In-Game leader) Vanity was a previous member of Version 1. But changed his team after V1’s loss in the NA Challengers Stage 3.

Version 1 is the higher seed, so they picked Breeze as the first map, and Cloud 9 picked Icebox as the second map, with Ascent being the third map.
