Ihor MatusThe first match of the Global Esports Tour Dubai 2022 has come to an end. In it, OG fought with Complexity Gaming for the right to reach the final. The meeting turned out to be rich and interesting.
The first fight took place on Overpass. There, Complexity Gaming immediately showed who will win in this map. Grim started on defense with his teammates and took 12 rounds in the first half. After the transition, OG offered decent resistance, but they still failed to resist the onslaught of Complexity. Mantuu with his teammates took 8 rounds on the defense side and lost with a score of 11-16. Surprisingly, Overpass is OG's choice.
The second card was Vertigo. She followed the same scenario, only in the role of a predator, and not a victim, OG turned out to be here. The team started on defense and took 12 rounds there. After the transition, Complexity barely took 5 rounds and OG won on Vertigo with a score of 16-8. Thus, mantuu and his teammates took revenge for the overpass they gave away.
The third map was Inferno. Complexity Gaming started on defense and couldn't take more than 5 rounds in the first half. After the transition, they took six rounds from OG and ultimately suffered with a score of 11-16.
