Ancient (13:6 The MongolZ)

Inferno (16:13 The MongolZ)
The decider started perfectly for paiN, who took full control early on and raced to a 7–0 lead. It seemed like an easy win for the Brazilian team, but the second half turned out to be much closer.

In the extra rounds, the Mongolians proved stronger, sealing the map 16–13 and the series.
