Einherjar Crowned Champions of Carp King Challenger 2024

In a stunning turn of events, Einherjar (ENR) have emerged victorious in the Carp King Challenger 2024 Season 1 tournament, defeating Squad Esports titans Pink Mist (PM) in a gripping final. This victory is particularly momentous as Pink Mist had dominated the competitive scene since Raven disbanded after the Infantry Combat Overhaul update.
Einherjar’s success is a significant milestone for the team, which is considered the “love child” of Raven and AK, two legendary teams that once ruled the Squad Esports world. After a year-long absence, ENR’s comeback culminated in a tournament win against one of the most formidable teams in the game, proving their dominance once again.
Much like their intense quarter-final encounter, the final between ENR and Pink Mist kept fans on the edge of their seats. In both rounds, Pink Mist initially came out strong. However, as Round 1 progressed, ENR managed to capture the middle cap and secure a 33-ticket lead, ending the round with 57 tickets to PM’s 24. The battlefield was chaotic, with mortars wreaking havoc on both sides, showcasing everyone’s skills and strategy.
Round 2 mirrored the tension of the first. Pink Mist once again took early control, leaving commentators and fans wondering what Einherjar’s strategy might be. They seemed unconcerned with the middle cap or overall map control. A decisive moment, was when ENR’s Bread, the Heavy Anti-Tank player, managed to cause the destruction both of Pink Mist’s ZBL vehicles, completely shifting the momentum.
With just a few tickets left, PM had the middle cap and looked poised to claim victory. Yet, Einherjar launched a relentless attack that, despite being initially repelled, saw them eventually secure the cap. This last-minute push sealed the win for ENR, in what will be remembered as one of the most thrilling and nail-biting finishes in Squad Esports history.
The Squad Esports scene now looks ahead to the upcoming Squad Rivals tournament, where both teams are set to compete. Adding to the excitement is the fact that Einherjar and Pink Mist will meet again in the group stage for the tournament’s first match. With both teams eager to prove themselves, fans can expect another intense showdown.
