After many months of waiting, Fortress Melbourne finally opened its doors to a limited number of gaming fans for the FirstStrike Valorant Grand Finals! With Coronavirus having such a huge impact on the hospitality industry it was great to see people out enjoying the show.
And what a show it was! EXO Clan put on a clinic against Legacy Esports and took all 3 matches with some real clutch moments. Congratulations to Exo Clan and well-done to Legacy Esports for winning more rounds than any other team against Exo.
🏆 Your #FirstStrike OCE Champions: @ExoClan_gg! 🏆

This is hopefully the first of many in-person gaming events held at Fortress Melbourne, which has the best gaming and eSports facilities of any venue I’ve ever been to. Everything there is done to a high standard. From the staff to the venue and everything in between.
Finally, thank you to our partners at @AlienwareOz, @riotgames, @Intelanz, @PlayValorant, @AtomosGlobal & @NvidiaANZ for working with us to bring this opportunity to Oceania.
We'll be back on Fri 11 December when we re-open to the public → https://t.co/AulhdzK69N pic.twitter.com/AnGRcWZU3s
