Edmonton Impact , Tampa Bay Damage and Seattle Thunder each won all of their four preliminary round games .
In the ocho rounds San Antonio X-Factor beat San Diego Dynasty 5-4 in a really tough overtime game that could easily have gone either way . Kudos to X-Factor for the strong play in the overtime point . Baltimore Revo continued their strong play in the ochos beating San Diego Aftermath 4-3 .
As always there were four Pro quarterfinals games and in this event two of those games were nail-biters and two were blowouts . In what was a great game , Edmonton Impact beat San Antonio X-Factor 5-4 . So close for X-Factor once again and another great showing by Edmonton Impact . Ditto
Los Angeles Infamous over ac : Diesel , as Infamous took down Diesel 4-3 . The other two pro quarterfinal round games saw Tampa Bay Damage ending the event for Baltimore Revo 6-1 and Moscow Red Legion , minus Kirill Prihidni and several other topline players beating Seattle Thunder 5-1 .
In the semifinals Los Angeles Infamous continued their strong play , ending the event for Moscow Red Legion 4-3 . Even in the semifinal loss it was a remarkable event for the Legion , playing with a severely shorthanded roster . The other Pro semifinal game saw Edmonton Impact taking care of Tampa Bay Damage 3-1 . Edmonton Impact won a hard-fought game against Los Angeles Infamous 2-1 to claim first place in the inaugural pro event of the 2021 season !
