Game 1: Dust 2 (Pick: BIG, Win: NaVi, Final Score: 13-7)

NaVi started things off on the right foot with a comfortable pistol-round win on the CT side of Dust 2, enabling themselves to secure the follow-up anti-eco and a couple of more rounds before BIG could put up their first point on the board. The German org could snatch another round before NaVi retaliated, getting a comfortable lead and closing out the half with a score of 8-4.

A crucial pistol-round win allowed NaVi to initially widen their lead, but a force-buy from BIG shut them down. BIG only managed to secure two more rounds before NaVi regained control and closed out the game with a 13-7 victory.

Game 2: Mirage (Pick: NaVi, Win: NaVi, Final Score: 13-3)

Mirage was a one-sided affair dominated by NaVi. Rallying behind an incredible individual performance from Justinas “jL” Lekavicius, NaVi closed out the first half with a commanding 9-3 lead.

They quickly wrapped up the game in the second half, winning the next three rounds and leaving no room for BIG to capitalize on mistakes. The second map ended decisively in favor of NaVi with a score of 13-3.
