Match Recap
Split began with RNT’s domination as Paradox got a quad kill and pulled a 30 hp 1v2 clutch with his frenzy to win the pistol round. JoshS almost knived Hellf but he turned around at the wrong time and still whiffed all his shots as JoshS won the duel without taking any damage and RNT won the anti-eco with Joshs’ triple kill on frenzy.
