Leon “Blackarrow889” Aussiker was defeated in the semi-final of the Virtual Bundesliga.

The Sampdoria eSports game was unable to overcome Ausburg’s Yannico109, losing out 6-4 in the two-legged tie at the Xbox Grand Final.

Aussiker managed to win three games on day one before winning his first knockout tie 11-5 against Hannover 96’s H_96Chrissi. This result pushes Blackarrow into Germany’s top four on the rankings for the Microsoft console.
