After the side switch, Astralis continued to crush the opponent, actively increasing the lead. However, "Born to Win" woke up in the end, making a strong comeback and bringing the fate of the meeting into overtime. And yet here the Danes managed to put the squeeze on NAVI, pulling out a difficult victory in the series — 19:17.
