Copenhagen Flames breeze past FaZe

The new legends stage match for FaZe Clan and Copenhagen Flames saw the Danes breeze past the EU mix after both teams suffered a defeat at the hands of G2 Esports.

A strong map for both sides Ancient was decided as the playground. A slow start for FaZe as Copenhagen Flames got off to a hot streak. The defense from FaZe looked lackluster and was often found in complete disarray once they found themselves at a man disadvantage. Few mid-round gambles went against them which the Danes made full use off and they were helped by the players of FaZe not finding their stride. Twitszz for FaZe was the shining light before they got in the second half with a 6-9 disadvantage.

The T side from them was far from what we have seen on this map. Failing to post a single round. Fredrik ‘roeJ‘ Jørgensen found his stride and absolutely thrived on the defense which made FaZe fail to post a single round on their offense.

A quick one for Copenhagen Flames saw get closer to playoffs with now just one win away, with FaZe needing two more to make it there. The stars on FaZe, unfortunately, didn’t align today which made things even worse, with was highlighted by a well-drilled CPG Flames.

Both teams have matches tomorrow that will decide their fate moving forward in the tournament. FaZe needs two back-to-back wins, while CPG Flames has a match cushion to spare.

G2 qualify for playoffs over Entropiq

Two teams coming off a hot streak of wins faced each other on the qualification match of PGL Stockholm that would see them book a place in the playoffs.

A best of 3 between two stunning teams saw G2 opt for Mirage while Entropiq went for Dust 2 and leave Ancient for the decider. A strong start for the French-Balkan mix, with Nikola ‘niko’ Kovac starting strong, which would automatically translate to a G2 win, but it was far from what we expected. The dark horse in Entropiq was quick to answer back, making the first half extremely competitive, ending 8-7 favoring G2.

The story remained unchanged for the second half which made it quite difficult for G2 to get comfortable in their own map. A bit of back and forth, with G2 showing up with a well-drilled offense, helped them close it out by the skin of their teeth, winning it with a 16-14 scoreline.

Dust II was supposed to be a comfortable map for Entropiq yet it was anything but that. G2 quickly turned the momentum on its head with a force buy win. Relentless aggression and some sharp shooting didn’t give the CIS squad any leg to stand on. 10-5 on the first half that quickly turned into a 16-7 in no time one G2 found themselves on the offense.

With a rather exciting 2-0 win over Entropiq, a team that looked like destined to have a deep run here at the major, found them needing a win to secure a playoff spot in the arena.

FURIA Secure Champions Stage Spot With Win Over Entropiq

0

FURIA becomes the third team after Natus Vincere and G2 to book a spot at the Aviici Arena for the Playoffs of the PGL Major. The win comes after an early loss to Astralis set them to 0-1, but they bounced back vs Mouz, domestic rivals Liquid and now Entropiq to make it to the top 8. This would also mean that ‘VINI’ and ‘drop’ would get their first Player Autographs, alongside ‘B1T’ from NaVi.

Entropiq can still qualify, if they win their final best of 3 against a team who also goes 2-2 in the New Legends Stage of the Major. FURIA are now the only team from NA to make it to the playoffs after EG was eliminated yesterday by Vitality and FaZe eliminated Team Liquid today.

The game itself was a drawn out affair in terms of no. of maps. Both the teams traded each other’s map picks, by a comfortable margin and had to battle it out on Ancient as they decider.


FURIA ran Entropiq ragged when they were on the CT side as the Russians couldnt handle the all around aggression and brilliant anchoring from ‘VINI’. With an 11-4 half FURIA cruised to a map win 16-6, losing just 2 rounds in the process as VINI racked up 27 kills and just 9 deaths.

Nuke started off close as well, with 7 T rounds for FURIA to Entropiq’s 8. But the floodgates opened as soon as the CIS roster got to the T side. ‘Krad’ and ‘Lack1’s duo made it easy for them to get onto bombsites and good mid round calling from ‘Nickelback’ helped them get 8 rounds with ease as they won out  the game 16-8.

Ancient was a more brawly affair, as at first FURIA seemed to run away with it. Entropiq’s T side was flat and they couldnt get past ‘yuurih’ on the B bombsite. They registered just 6 rounds as the half ended 6-9 in FURIA’s favour. 

FURIA got off to a wonderful start, with 5 rounds on the trot to put them up14-6. A magnificent 1v4 from ‘yuurih’ with the AWP hyped them up even more as they looked set for a blow out once again.

But Entropiq didnt back down so easily and brought back 5 rounds, and then another 2 to bring it to 15-12. 

‘VINI’ the hero of Vertigo, came back with another 1v3 clutch to take his team to the playoffs, as the last remaining team from NA, and also the last 5 Brazilians at the PGL major.

NaVi Secure Top 8 at PGL Major with Win Over NiP

Natus Vincere becomes the second team after G2 to secure their place in the Top 8 of the PGL Major. The win comes after a flawless 2-0 run yesterday in Bo1 and a swift 2-0 in a Bo3 over NiP. They beat the Swedes 16-9 on Nuke as well on Overpass to confirm their spot.

NiP still have 2 more chances to qualify for the playoffs as they currently sit 2-1 in the New Legends Stage.

MAP VETO

1. Natus Vincere removed Vertigo

2. NIP removed Mirage

3. Natus Vincere picked Nuke

4. NIP picked Overpass

5. NIP removed Dust2

6. Natus Vincere removed Inferno

7. Ancient was left over

 MAP 1 : Natus Vincere 16-9 Ninjas in Pyjamas

Nuke started off in a very one sided affair with NaVi taking home the first 7 rounds on the trot. NiP then hit back with 6 of their own, to keep the #1 team in check and they did it very well by closing down ‘s1mple’ and ‘electronic’

After an 8-7 half NaVi lost the pistol too and it evened out the score. But that is when the ‘s1mple’ show began. THE BEST Nuke CT sided player, agreed upon by everyone who watches CS put on a masterful performance as he went 16-3 on the CT side as NaVi went on a 7 round streak again. NiP had only 2 T rounds and NaVi rolled over them comfortably.

MAP 2 : Natus Vincere 16-9 Ninjas in Pyajamas

NaVi’s overpass has been the centre of criticism in recent times as they havent been as dominant on it in recent memory so the Ninjas went with a punish pick. But it worked out as well as it did for VP yesterday with ‘electronic’ and ‘b1t’ locking down the sites this time to give the CIS squad and 11-4 lead at half time.

The T side looked shaky as ever, as they allowed NiP to cut down the lead to just 3  rounds but ‘s1mple’ and ‘B1T’ gave them the entries they needed to get to 16 easily, as they closed the map 16-9.

NaVi have now booked a top 8 spot at the first Major in 2 years and will play their next game in the Champions Stage from 4th October 2021.

NiP will play another team from the 2-1 bracket in a Bo3 for another chance at getting to the major.
