G2 Wins Against 3DMAX in Shanghai Major Elimination Stage

G2's Resurgence Powers Them Towards Major Qualification

G2 has secured their second win of the elimination stage beating 3DMax with ease after losing to them earlier in the RMR.

Map 1: Anceint; Winner: G2; Score: 13-8

Upon opening the pistol round with a win, 3DMAX gave their first round away against an anti-eco. The first half put up a brawl between two sides that saw both teams trading rounds before the French side could edge in a narrow lead as the half closed 7-5 favoring 3DMAX.

G2 came into their own in the second half where Snax went crazy to call an A play for every single round. Through executes or contact plays, G2 bullied the A site as they went on to win 8 rounds losing only one in the process. The individuals from G2 delivered when it mattered resulting in them going 2-1 up in the scoreboard.

G2 will need one more win to book a spot in the Major while 3DMAX sits with a 1-2 scoreline, which means every game moving forward will be a must-win and pressure couldn’t be any higher.
