Despite a solid victory on Ancient and a great comeback attempt on Overpass, the main team lost 1-2 against Natus Vincere.
Our first matchup in the tournament was against the newly renovated NAVI, where the Danes got off to a fantastic start on Ancient.
The Danish quintet secured a 10-5 lead before switching to the CT side.
Gaining the remaining rounds was no problem as Benjamin "blameF" Bremer and Victor "Staehr" Staehr acquired 25 frags each, winning the map 16-8.
NAVI imitated our halftime score as they won the first half 5-10 on their map pick, Nuke.
Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev and co. were too strong and won the map 6-16.
It seemed like a NAVI stomp on the decider, Overpass, as they won the first half 12-3 on their T-side.
After a short break, the teams switched sides, and there was a noticeable shift in attitude.
Our in-game leader, blameF, kickstarted a seven-round win streak by claiming a 1v3 clutch in the second pistol round.
As the score was almost tied at 10-12, NAVI fought back, and despite trading rounds, they took Overpass 12-16.
