paiN Gaming took a comfortable series over Lynn Vision to secure themselves top 16 at the Austin Major.

Dav1deuS was the crowned jewel of the match, top fragging on Dust2 and Nuke.

Lynn Vision did not replicate the form they had against Falcons, and will have to play once more in Stage 2 when their Major fate will be decided.

Dav1deus delivers paiN on Dust2

Chilean dav1deuS dashed Lynn Vision’s hopes on Dust2 with 16-kill first half, adding a 1v3 to boot to defend B-site.

Recovering a 3-9 half from the CT-side proved too tall a task, and paiN closed it 13-9 despite having some trouble.

paiN clean up on Nuke

Lynn Vision had no chance on Nuke, where paiN’s players had a field day, racking up 10 T rounds.

The second half was more positive for the Chinese, but dav1deuS and paiN closed out the map comfortably.
