Virtus top Acer A-Split Invitational

Virtus.pro have won Acer A-Split Invitational and $5,000 by overcoming Reason 3-0 (16-11 de_cobblestone, 16-7 de_nuke) in the grand final.

On day one Virtus.pro topped group A just ahead of PENTA, while the other finalists, Danish unu.AiN playing under Reason's brand this weekend, overcame mouz in group B.

Today started with Mathias "⁠MSL⁠" Lauridsen's Reason easily taking down PENTA, who were playing with Planetkey's Johannes "⁠nex⁠" Maget as a stand-in for Denis "⁠denis⁠" Howell, in the upper bracket.

Shortly later Virtus.pro disposed of Aleksi "⁠allu⁠" Jalli's mousesports with a 2-0 score, thus setting up the next two match-ups in the double elimination playoffs.


Virtus.pro finish off 2014 with a win in Germany 

PENTA knocked out mousesports in fourth place, while Virtus.pro wasted no time in securing a spot in the grand final with a dominant 2-0 victory over the Danish side.

Reason then scored a second victory over PENTA, with Michael "⁠Friis⁠" Jørgensen leading the way with a +13 K-D difference in the Danish team's 2-1 win to advance to the grand final.

Virtus.pro came into the final with a 1-0 lead, and quickly extended it with a win on de_cobblestone. The Poles then clinched the championship with a win on de_nuke.
