MOUZ had lost their opening playoff match on Thursday to PARIVISION 2-1 in the upper-bracket quarterfinals, then worked their way through the lower bracket in the double-elimination tournament, with all matches best-of-3.

Sweeps of HEROIC and OG were followed by a 2-1 victory over BetBoom Team on Saturday to reach Sunday’s first competition, the lower-bracket final against Team Liquid.

MOUZ won in 39 minutes on red before Team Liquid drew even with a 48-minute win on red. MOUZ took the decisive third map in 39 minutes on green to advance to the best-of-5 grand final.
