Russian forZe could not stop BIG, who played their first of two matches today.
The match started on BIG’s favorite map, Dust2. Here the Germans very quickly showed, why they have a 69% win rate on the map against top tier teams.
Brutal, savage and most defintely rekt. ?

The map ended with a clear 16-7 victory after all of BIG’s players ended with a positive K/D-ratio.
On Inferno, the match became much more even. Both sides started well and traded wins. forZe won the first half by 8-7.
The Russians looked like a team, that was about to put the match into the third map. Leading 14-9 they were trying to seal the deal on Inferno. But the resiliant Germans took control of the match once again, and won seven maps in a row to take home the victory. An important two map win for the Germans, who play later tonight in the IEM Beijing-Haidian tournament against mousesports.
BIG is now ready for the playoffs in Flashpoint 2, while forZe needs to win the Consolidation Final to go through.
With comebacks like that there's no wonder that we are the first playoff team at @Flashpoint! ?
GGWP @forzegg, we will be back in a week with the grand final of our group!#GOBIG pic.twitter.com/c8loTXp0yp
