South America continues to celebrate the first CS2 Major in the best way possible! On Inferno, Imperial blew away Virtus.pro 13-6 in a very comfortable manner. Kaiky ‘noway’ Santos lived up to his name and denied VP any possibility of making a comeback during the match, where the Imperial rifler went 21-11 in K-D.
Virtus.pro looked uncomfortable throughout the match against the explosive playstyle from Imperial. The loss for Virtus.pro will put pressure on the CIS roster from the get-go in the tournament.
Eternal Fire managed to convert a great start in the match against the reigning Major Champions from Team Vitality to a stellar 13-10 win on Inferno. Dan “apEX” Madesclaire and his men struggled throughout the match to deliver impact besides Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut, who played at his usual top-tier level. But against İsmailсan “XANTARES” Dörtkardeş even the BLAST.tv Paris Major winners had to accept defeat. The Turkish rifler delivered another impressive performance for the Turkish side.
The 0-1 bracket already looks dangerous with both Vitality and Virtus.pro in the mix!
