Spades/bans

  1. BIG removed Ancient
  2. FaZe removed Vertigo
  3. BIG-picked Dust2
  4. FaZe picked Nuke
  5. BIG removed Overpass
  6. FaZe removed Mirage
  7. Inferno was left over

Based on the latest results of FaZe Clan on the Dust 2 map, the German team had to win their pick. And after all, the first half of the map went exactly like this, BIG played well for the attack, winning the half with a score of 9:6, but after the change of sides, everything did not go according to their plan. BIG made mistakes every now and then and lost their rounds, while FaZe Clan was not very smart and won the rounds by default plays. Gob b's wards were only enough to win 2 rounds for the defensive side, and FaZe Clan celebrated the victory on the opponent's picks. FaZe Clan 16:11 BIG.

On Nuke, the game was played according to the scenario of the first map, the only difference being that BIG started as SWAT. Once again, FaZe Clan lose the half with a score of 6:9, but close out in the second half without a chance. Such games can hit morale very hard, we hope BIG will not give up after such a performance in the match and in the championship as a whole. FaZe Clan 16:11 BIG.
