Time waits for no one, and the ESEA season shows no signs of slowing down. Among the teams reaching the halfway mark of the regular stage is Saturlity Esport, competing in the Intermediate division. Unfortunately, their season start was far from ideal. As we mentioned in our previous article, the opening matches didn’t go their way. While their record has improved slightly since then, it still leaves much to be desired. After seven matches, exactly halfway through the first stage of the season, the team sits on a “remarkable” 2–5 record. Can they recover in time and fight their way into the playoffs?
A brief spark for Saturlity Esport, but the curse strikes back twice as hard
🇫🇷 Saturlity Esport [13:10] :ua: DIRECTORs TEAM | Inferno
The match, while it may have looked easy based on the score and the opponent’s standing, was anything but. The first half was fiercely contested, as reflected in the 6:6 scoreline. Only after switching sides did Saturlity manage to build a clear lead, holding onto it until the very end to secure the win. Kaalz deserves special mention, finishing the match with an impressive 25 kills and only 12 deaths. Juicy_0 also stood out, despite ending with a negative K/D of 10 kills and 14 deaths, he provided excellent utility support, successfully flashing as many as 27 opponents.

The second match of the day was undoubtedly one of the tougher ones. Saturlity’s opponents dominated nearly every aspect of the game. Despite their efforts, the team managed to take only three rounds in the entire match. All of them was in the first half, where they still trailed by six. After the side switch, things didn’t improve, as Saturlity failed to secure another round and ultimately fell with a crushing 3:13 scoreline. With such a one-sided result, the stats were far from impressive. Still, Kaalz once again stood out, finishing with 12 kills and 13 deaths, though this time he couldn’t manage a positive rating. In terms of utility, Juicy_0 once again led the way, successfully flashing 10 opponents, although he “hit” his teammates just as many times.

The final match of the day, judging by the level of the opposition, seemed set to be tougher than the previous clash against the Portuguese side. Surprisingly, Saturlity started this one better, but the quality advantage still lay with their opponents. Despite a spirited fight, 5DEMON closed out the first half with an 4:8 lead. After the switch, they continued to control the game. Saturlity managed to add two more rounds, but couldn’t turn the tide, eventually falling 6:13. Statistically, this time the top fragger for Saturlity was Faboudin, who finished on the positive side despite the loss, posting 17 kills and 16 deaths. In terms of utility, Juicy_0 once again stood out, successfully flashing 11 opponents. Kaalz wasn’t far behind, though in his case, more flashes hit teammates than enemies.
It’s only midseason — what awaits Saturlity in the second half?
Although Saturlity Esport record at midseason doesn’t inspire much optimism, the team still has time to turn things around. They face three upcoming matches that could determine their return to the fight for the playoffs. Tonight at 8:00 PM, they’ll go up against :fi: RajutKundit, and on Thursday, August 14th, at the same time, they will face :de: Rheinkirmes. The last scheduled match is a bit further away, set for September 2nd at 12:00 PM, when Saturlity will take on 🇫🇷 Five NoName. Will the second half of the season be better than the first?
