1) On the first map of the confrontation, the Cloud9 team began to confidently dominate the defense side. The wards of the groove managed to take as many as 12 rounds, while the Outsiders failed to find tactics in their arsenal that would help them on this Dust2 against the top 4 teams in the world. After switching sides, Cloud9 took the second pistol round, followed by the series, thus reaching the map point. The Outsiders failed to turn the game in their favor. Cloud9 16:6 Outsiders.

2) The map Ancient in the first half was completely dominated by the Outsiders, who played for defense. Cloud9 couldn't find a loophole in the opponent's defense, only occasionally catching them on mistakes. The first half ended in favor of Oursiders with a score of 11:4. Who would have thought that these 4 rounds would be enough for the Cloud9 team to win a map for the defense side. Outsiders were simply outplayed, and the attack side again turned out to be a failure for them. Just one round in the second half from the Outsiders. Cloud9 16:12 Outsiders.

Cloud9 get their first victory at IEM Cologne 2022. The next opponent for this team will be the winner of the Astralis/FURIA Esports pair.
