The match began on Inferno, G2’s map pick. From the opening rounds, Team Vitality took full control, giving G2 no opportunities to execute their attacks. The first half was completely one-sided, with Vitality finishing it 10:2. The second half didn’t last long either — Vitality quickly wrapped up the map 13:2.

In the first half, G2 had the initiative and control, creating the impression that they were about to take revenge for the first map’s crushing defeat. G2 confidently won the half 9:3. However, in the second half, Vitality managed to turn the tide and force the game into overtime. In the extra rounds, Vitality didn’t allow their opponents to equalize and secured the map 16:13.
