Astralis went on to suffer an overtime loss on Nuke despite amassing a 6-3 T-side lead early on, with David “frozen” Cernanský leading the way to the comeback for mousesports. The 18-year-old mouz player delivered 31 frags to help his team steal Astralis’ map pick in OT and take a 1-0 series lead.
mousesports wrapped up the series 2-0 on their own map pick of Overpass, where they showed no signs of slowing down. The mouz squad finished off first half with a dominant T-side and took an impressive 11-4 lead right before halftime. It seemed like ropz and company were going to close out the map quickly after winning the first two rounds in second half, but Astralis didn’t give up that easy. The Danish squad managed to lower their deficit to only three rounds, but unfortunately got their comeback attempt denied in the very end as mouz decided it was time to close out the map.
