Spirit stays alive after Bulgarian scare
Team Spirit came dangerously close to making an early exit at DreamHack Masters Spring.
The Bulgarians from Fiend came very close to making the first upset at DreamHack Masters Spring. After having won Mirage, the two former Windigo players Kamen 'bubble' Kostadinov and Viktor 'v1c7oR' Dyankov had every chance to eliminate Team Spirit on Overpass with their younger teammates on Fiend. At 15-13, they had the chance after having planted the bomb but lost the 3vs4 situation. In overtime, they could see an ignited Abdul 'degster' Gasanov settle the score and force the match to be decided on Nuke.
Here it felt like, that Fiend had the lost momentum, that had carried them into almost winning the match. On the scoreboard, it translated into a 12-3 lead at the break for Spirit, where mir, magixx, and chopper all were making life tough for the Bulgarians.
Spirit made the last push on their CT-side to win the match and advance in the lower brackets, while Fiend is out after a very fine performance.
