fnatic move past CLG in Dallas

fnatic have progressed to the Upper Bracket semi-finals at the ESEA Season 18 global finals following a 2-0 victory over CLG (16-6 on de_mirage and 16-9 on de_cache).

Following Luminosity's 0-2 defeat against Titan in the opening match of the event, the North American community turned to CLG with hopes of watching an upset, but the match went according to script as fnatic ran out 2-0 victors without too much trouble.

The first map of this best-of-three series was de_mirage, where a strong start on the offensive side earned fnatic a commanding 11-4 lead at the break. CLG's reaction in the second half was short lived, as fnatic quickly secured the five rounds they needed to take a 1-0 lead in the series.


reltuC & co drop to the Lower Bracket 

Next up was de_cache, where fnatic once again came out very strongly, this time securing a 10-5 lead after playing on the defensive side of the map. Peter "⁠ptr⁠" Gurney's men then cut the gap to three rounds to bring the scoreline to 9-12, but fnatic upped the pace and strung four rounds together to send CLG to the Lower Bracket.

Yeah, we got muslims and still have 3 times more GDP than Ireland. Pretty degenerating for you right? Not to mention the "muslim problem" is ussualy over-exaggerated by Swedish kids on HLTV.

Kids usually tell things how they are. You 'adults' tend to want to look good in front of other countries and tell that it's all okay.

It's already "tomorrow" in some parts of Europe right now. Just cause it's friday in England, it doesn't mean it's friday in the rest of Europe.

Pretty sure he was implying that you should've wrote "In the UK, that's tomorrow" or "In most countries in Europe, that's tomorrow" because when w1gga posted the comment it was 22:11 in the UK while it was 00:11 at Finland (to count one) hence a new day so pretty sure that's why he got butthurt when it looked like (by your comment) that the whole Europe had the same time as the UK.
