TSM qualify for fb Masters finals

2-12-2015 23:15

Team SoloMid narrowly grind out a victory against the Swedes of DenDD to be the final team qualifying for this weekend's Fragbite Masters Season 5 finals (16-9 on de_cache, 11-16 on de_inferno, and 19-16 on de_overpass).

Following the qualifications of NiP and SK via the Blue and Orange brackets of the online portions of Fragbite Masters Season 5, the runner-ups of each bracket met in a final best-of-three to determine the final team to attend the 500,000 SEK (~$57,400) event.

de_cache made the series appear as it would be an easy sweep for TSM, as most had at first predicted, with the Danes taking the map 16-9 and advancing to de_inferno.

TSM were sorely tested by DenDD

However, following a 11-4 CT half on inferno, Finn "⁠karrigan⁠" Andersen & co. failed to get a single round on their own T-side as DenDD used conservative, standardised, and defensive play to rack up twelve rounds and win the map 16-11.

de_overpass saw both teams giving it their all as it was DenDD who ran away with a 11-4 T half only to see TSM finally wake up with Peter "⁠dupreeh⁠" Rasmussen making crucial plays including a second half pistolround ace, which forced the game to overtime. In overtime, the Danes finally showed their experience by taking most of the rounds and winning 19-16.

The four teams attending the Frabite Masters Season 5 finals in Stockholm this weekend will be:

fnatic	NiP
SK	TSM

The offline finals will take place from December 4-6th and we should have a viewer's guide available for you closer to the event's kick-off.

He didn't think anyone was long because twist was peeking there before with awp. twist probably thought he had cleared long but there was one T behind the corner towards bathroom :p Wasn't a throw. twist probably said: long clear, after killing first and not spotting anyone more.. And then bendji did a great move IF there would have been none long like twist said.

as CT you want to push to get information so you can get information, its 5 vs 4 for the CTs, you got first pick and big advantage, there was 0 reason for him to push even if he though no one was there. But the cheats bendji uses ofc cant get him common sense or experience cuz hes retarded
