Nemiga eliminate HEROIC to reach Stage 3
Nemiga held strong under pressure and eliminated HEROIC in their final Stage 2 decider. With both teams standing at 2–2 before the match, the winner would proceed to Stage 3 while the loser would be sent home. HEROIC picked Mirage to open the series, but despite a strong T-side start, they couldn't close out the map. Nemiga flipped the script in the second half and took Mirage 13–11.
Dust2 was Nemiga’s pick, and it showed early with a dominant 9–3 CT half. HEROIC attempted a recovery, but Ivan “zweih” Gogin’s rifling and late-round entries shut it down. The 13–9 map win locked in a clean 2–0 sweep for Nemiga. Train, the decider, went unplayed.
MVP – Ivan ‘zweih’ Gogin
With a 1.41 rating across two maps, 97.7 ADR, and a match-high 41 kills, zweih was the difference-maker for Nemiga. His 1.64 impact rating and multiple multi-kill rounds secured crucial momentum swings in both maps.
