FDL has claimed their place as the only qualified team for the Northern Arena BEAT Invitational LAN. The squad led by Stanley “Stan King” Yang outlasted Team NP featuring Jacky “EternaLEnVy” Mao, Kurtis “Aui_2000” Ling and Theeban “1437” Siva.
FDL placed third in their group. They defeated Not Today 2:1 but fell to the lower brackets at the hands of Team NP. In lower brackets they bested EverNovaS 2:1 then wiped out Team Freedom and overpowered Infamous to reface Team NP in the grand finals.
