Entropiq defeat NAVI 2-0 in a huge upset!
The better CIS roster today was the Russians of Entropiq
One of the recent rosters to have appeared, seemingly, out of nowhere and proved themselves a real contender is Entropiq. They are currently ranked as the 20th. best team in the entire world and are showing no signs of slowing down just yet. When facing the CIS giants of NAVI, they proved exactly why they have had such great success in recent times. Calculated and ready to fight they managed to defeat NAVI in an impressive 2-0 upset.
The first map was the pick of NAVI. Not unsurprisingly they chose the map of Nuke to be the first map. Despite NAVI's recent success on the map of Nuke, it was clear which CIS team had the stronger performance on map one. At halftime, the Entropiq roster walked away with an immense lead at the scoreline of 11-4. The second half carried on as the first had played out. Without too much hassle Entropiq closed out the first map of the series at the scoreline of 16-8.
The second map was the choice of Entropiq. In what is expected to be a counter-pick they chose Overpass as their map pick, a map that NAVI have previously struggled on. However, the second map was far closer than the first map of Nuke. Going back and forth the two teams traded rounds and were unable to gain the edge over their opponents. Ultimately, however, after having to go to overtime, it was Entropiq to win Overpass 19-17 and defeat the giants of NAVI in an impressive 2-0 upset.
