Mousesports defeat the legends of Faze 2-0
Mousesports starts their 2021 with a BO3-series win at cs_summit 7
With neither of the two teams having competed in the, just finished, BLAST Premier Global Final 2020 event, it will be each team's first chance to display what they have accomplished during the break-period. Mousesports have during the break signed Frederik "acoR" Gyldstrand as their new primary AWP'er to replace Chris "chrisJ" de Jong. The match against Faze marked the 23-year-old Danes' debut.
Whilst "acoR" was far from the best performing player on the server he seemed comfortable in the roster and with a 2-0 series-win on his debut he is presumably more than happy with the result.
The first map took place over on Mirage and was picked by Faze. A controversial pick seeing that the map is one of Mousesports' better maps. In the last three months, they have managed a win-rate of 66.7% on Mirage. It was also Mousesports to have the stronger performance and with an impressive final scoreline of 16-6, they took the first map-point and put Faze on the back-foot.
Faze needed to perform better as the two rosters moved on to the second map on Train. This was, however, not the reality and with a phenomenal performance from David "frozen" Čerňanský, the European roster of Mousesports went to halftime leading 11-4. The second half continued as the first had ended and Mousesports kept piling on the pressure. Ultimately they closed out the game and thereby also the series with a 16-4 map win on Train.
