TSM win GameShow League Season 2

13-8-2015 22:58

TSM defeat rivals fnatic 3-0 (16-4 on de_inferno and 16-10 on de_dust2, with a one map advantage) in the grand final of GameShow League's second season.

Much like another $30,000 online league which concluded recently, Game Show Studio's second season of its CS:GO League was beset with delays due to teams' increasingly hectic schedules, and took nearly eight months to reach the grand finals.

With a difference of $8,000 on the line between first and second place however, the eventual grand final which played out today was not a matter to be taken lightly.

With TSM having advanced through the upper bracket, the Danish outfit went into the best-of-five series with a one map advantage. Finn "⁠karrigan⁠" Andersen and his men needed no such buffer on the first map however, as it was a 16-4 whitewash for the Danes.

TSM gave an online glimmer of still being fnatic's Kryptonite in another series

Although the second map of de_dust2 saw fnatic somewhat awoken with a 10-5 T side for the Swedes, Nicolai "⁠device⁠" Reedtz and Peter "⁠dupreeh⁠" Rasmussen put in exceptionally strong performances that sealed the map and the series for TSM.

loled

fnatic? are you there?

2015-08-14 00:18

SO CLOSE

one thing to note, because this tournament took so long to complete, some of the 5-8 finishes have old lineups, e.g.: FlipSid3 with s1mple, the old nV and mouz lineups

Ok.

better than french WOOOOO Kappa

2015-08-14 10:48

So what did you finish?

2015-08-14 18:18

that only happened because roccat was supposed to play fnatic in the semis, but then fnatic forfeited. then tsm and got rocked, and later played fnatic and got de_stroyed

2015-08-13 23:46

that doesn't make any sense. If ROCCAT would've played fnatic in semis, and fnatic forfeited, they go to the finals, I assume? This fnatic and tsm would meet in lower bracket, if that was the case, and it wouldn't be possible to play in the finals.
