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.
