Well guys, the Inta group is behind us. They turned out to be rather meaty and unexpected, although in the end + - all those who were supposed to pass passed, but Nigma was a big surprise here.

As you know, groups on Ints are always just a warm-up and the next step towards the main event. Ahead of the games at the stadium.
