TSM have claimed the number one spot in group B, advancing to the semi-finals after a convincing 16-8 victory over G2.

Towards the beginning of the match Adil "⁠ScreaM⁠" Benrlitom and Ricardo "⁠fox⁠" Pacheco combined for four headshots for the pistol round, coupled with an anti-eco afterwards. TSM's plant allowed Finn "⁠karrigan⁠" Andersen to buy an AWP, helping his team equalize at 2-2.

Both teams claimed two of the next four rounds to make it 4-4, thanks Dennis "⁠dennis⁠" Edman's quad-kill with a previously saved AWP. When it looked like G2 would retake the lead, Andreas "⁠Xyp9x⁠" Højsleth stay true to his reputation and clutched a near-impossible 1-on-4.

That set off TSM's first halftime streak, which was extended to all seven remaining rounds, especially thanks to Nicolai "⁠device⁠" Reedtz. Soon they made it ten after taking the second pistol for 14-4.

The teams then exchanged two gunrounds and TSM took it to match point, and it took them three more rounds to close it out at 16-8 and claim first place in group B.
