Stellar Bosnian teamwork eliminate BIG from IEM Katowice
BIG are out of the important event after losing to G2 and two well-playing Bosnian cousins.
There was a lot at stake when G2 and BIG clashed this Friday evening, in a vital elimination match at the lower bracket of IEM Katowice. As the word ‘elimination’ indicates, the loser of the match will be knocked out from the event, and this time it was the Germans from BIG who had to go home empty-handed.
The otherwise strong German side will leave the $1 Million event after two losses on Inferno and Mirage, where G2 and especially the Kovac cousins of NiKo and huNter- displayed an extremely high level of Counter-Strike. The two powerful Bosnians dominated a map each, with NiKo closing out the series on Mirage with a massive 33-bomb and 1.82 Rating
