Dignitas win Scandinavian brawl against Tricked 2-0!
The Swedish legends defeat the Danish youngsters
The final Bo3-series in the opening round of the playoffs at the Snow Sweet Snow 3 event saw Dignitas clashing with Tricked. The Scandinavian brawl between the legendary Swedes and the Danish youngsters would determine the last Quarter-finalist of the event. Despite Tricked starting strong on Overpass it was ultimately the Swedes, led by "f0rest" and "friberg", to take home the series 2-0.
The first map took place on Overpass and was the choice of Tricked. Both rosters have had experience playing the map and have been quite successful in their endeavors. Perhaps unsurprisingly, being the map pick of Tricked, it was the Danes to start strongest on Overpass and managed to finish their T-sided half 10-5.
The second half, however, was all Dignitas. A comeback, orchestrated by the legendary Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg, made sure that Dignitas would start the series strong. After clawing themselves back into the game they managed to close out Overpass 16-12, only allowing their opponents two CT-sided rounds.
For the second map of the series, the two teams headed to Nuke, once again a map that is regularly played by both rosters. Posting a strong T-sided half, Dignitas ensured that they were able to finish the map without too much hassle on their CT-side. With their strategical approach going as planned they won Nuke 16-7 and took home the series with a 2-0 victory against the young Danes of Tricked.
