The MOUZ team lost to Complexity Gaming with a score of 1:2 and left IEM Katowice 2023. In turn, the North American team made it to the semi-finals of the lower bracket of group B, where they will meet fnatic tomorrow.

The last match of group B of the third gaming day started on the Inferno map, which became the choice of the North American team. However, the "mouse" broke into the series with some excitement, having managed to win the initial initiative. However, closer to the changeover, Complexity Gaming managed to return to the game to reduce the gap to one round — 8:7. After the side switch, MOUZ disappeared from the radar somewhere, while the North Americans took advantage of the given chances and took the lead in the series - 16:9.

The teams then moved on to the Nuke map, which turned out to be MOUZ's choice. Moreover, the European team began to correct for mistakes on the first map, showing an excellent attack, which guaranteed the “mice” a comfortable advantage over the side switching — 9:6. In the second half, Complexity Gaming still tried to return to the game, but MOUZ managed to hold back the opponent, and then transfer the series to the destroyer — 16:12.

Everything was decided on the Ancient map, where an equal fight was outlined. However, the North American team managed to prove themselves in the attack in order to gain an advantage in three rounds - 9:6. After the change of sides, the struggle only intensified, as the “mice” won the pistol round and closed the gap. However, in the very end, Complexity Gaming took full control of the game and brought the matter to a victorious end — 16:12.
