The DPC CN 21/22 Tour 3 Division I has passed the halfway point, the first three weeks have been completed and the teams have shown what they are made of. Unlike the previous weeks where the matches ended with very close results, this week in China all five matches ended 2-0. Let's have a look at the matches of week three and the schedule for next week.
PSG.LGD put an end to their poor form after finally getting their second win, while RNG and Team Aster continue to lead Division I with their 3-1 results. At the bottom of the table are EHOME and Aster.Aries with just one win and it does not look like they can do any better based on their recent performances.
Week 2 recap
Team Aster played against Dandelion Esport Club to kick off week one. It was a great series for Aster, as they secured two wins in 48 minutes, the first game being 25-4 and the second one being 24-4.
Following this, Xtreme faced EHOME to end the day. EHOME could not turn off their bad luck and lost 0-2. The first game lasted 36 minutes while the second lasted 30 minutes. Two quick games by Xtreme kept them in the middle of the league table.
On June 24, PSG.LGD played the only match of the day against Aster.Aries. They outclassed their recently promoted opponents with ease, defeating them in two games, one in 26 minutes and the other in 20 minutes.
The final day of the week started with RNG against Vici Gaming. Although they had a good run before week three, Vici could not withstand the power of RNG and lost 0-2. The first game was a quick 24-minute win by RNG. In the second game they struggled but still managed to finish it in 38 minutes.
Team Aster played against EHOME to close out the week. In their second game of the week, Aster could not finish games as quickly as they did against DEC. However, the first win finished in 43 minutes and the second in 38 minutes, which was enough for a 2-0 win.

It is hard but not impossible for DEC, Aster.Aries and EHOME to still be relevant in the race for the Arlington Major slots. There are four slots available for Chinese teams, which increases their chances. They need to up their game and perform better under pressure, while the top teams need to settle down and do what they did in the first three weeks.
Sunday's games are definitely the most valuable. Team Aster will take on Royal Never Give Up to decide which team will finish first. Following that, PSG.LGD and Xtreme will meet. One of them will have a better spot for the Arlington Major race, and the other will have to wait for the following week.
