Map 1: Dust2; Pick: Spirit; Winner: MOUZ
A 4-0 start for MOUZ set the tone for the game on defense, with Spirit struggling to get going. Winning their first round with a 1v3 donk, the team managed to close out with a respectable 5-7 deficit. The lead from MOUZ was extended further following their pistol round conversion in the second half, which saw the team go further ahead as Spirit played chase. Despite them managing to close the lead, MOUZ broke their economy, leading to a 3-round streak that closed the game 13-8 on the scoreboard, having spinx topping the charts with 23 kills.
Map 2: Mirage; Pick: MOUZ; Winner: MOUZ
Losing out to a MOUZ force, Spirit gave away their momentum only to fall further behind. As MOUZ continued to dominate, their offense picked Spirit apart to post an extremely one-sided 8-4 scoreline. With Spirit already struggling, MOUZ put up the perfect defense we have seen from them in recent times, keeping Spirit at bay for 5 rounds in a row to close out the game with a 13-4 scoreline. Yet another chart-topping performance from Sphinx, only for the MOUZ cast to put up a better show holistically.
Map 3: Ancient; Pick: Spirit; Winner: Spirit
4-0 start from Spirit on the offence gave them some much-needed hope moving forward, only for them to give away the lead. Winning the final round ensured the half closed with a levelled scoreline before MOUZ started on a stronger foot with a pistol round conversion. Spirit took charge of the game late in the second half, which saw the game get turned on its head as Spirit took the lead and closed the game thanks to donk finding form late in the series.
Map 4: Nuke; Pick: MOUZ; Winner: MOUZ
A shaky start to the game saw the momentum sway between both sides, only for MOUZ to take the lead with a 7-5 scoreline by the end of the first half. Spirit took the lead off the back of a pistol conversion, only for MOUZ’s defense to take it back with the first gun round. Despite Spirit’s promising offence, MOUZ outclassed them with a solid CT side to close out the game with a 13-10 scoreline.
With MOUZ winning their last trophy back in 2025, this should help boost the confidence with the freshly minted lineup. A hard decision was taken when refreshing the roster, but the goal was achieved early on in the season. Delivering similar results at bigger events is what they have their eyes on, and for this is exactly what they needed.
