You can find a summarized recap of everything that happened in the sixth week below.
Shimmer 2-0 wwaves 
Shimmer won comfortably once again, this time at the expense of wwaves. Everybody on Shimmer played well, but Lucy "empathy" Verkaik was once again the MVP, and now averages a superb 1.43 rating after six weeks. If she brings that form to Stockholm, Shimmer will be a top contender one more time.

FlyQuest RED 2-0 Nocturnal
Nocturnal, the team that chased Shimmer and FlyQuest RED in this edition of Impact League NA, lost to the former this week. They still had hopes of making the LAN Finals, but needed to beat FlyQuest RED after losing to Shimmer the previous week.
However, FlyQuest showed their A-game and won by 2-0 yet again. Marie "marie" Ellen Toft Sørensen led the show with 38 kills and 100.2 ADR, consolidating herself as the second-highest-rated player of Impact NA S8 with a 1.35 rating.

Black Mold 2-0 Little Bocks
Black Mold and Little Bocks are both at the bottom of the league, as they had lost all their matches before. It seems that Black Mold won't finish last place, though, as they dominated Little Bocks on both maps to clinch their first victory.
Two of their players, Kelsie "uhKelsie" Click and April "Bungee" Haight finished the series with over 100 ADR.
