SirActionSlacks on Nigma Galaxy’s advancement to the playoffs of The International 2026: “I never stopped believing for a second.”
Esports event host Jake “SirActionSlacks” Kanner commented on X about the results of Nigma Galaxy, LGD Gaming, and Team Resilience during the group stage of The International 2026.
What a crazy day! Nigma Galaxy was one of the first teams in the group to advance to the playoffs, baby! I never stopped believing for a second. If someone had told me that this year at The International I’d see Topson face off against Sumail, plus a young Chinese team competing at this level, I would’ve been blown away.
Earlier, Jake joked that he’d leave Shanghai if the Chinese clubs were eliminated from The International 2026 in the group stage: “If all the Chinese teams get knocked out in the group stage, I’m going home. I won’t be hosting the final days.”
