mousesports eliminate Astralis at EL

mousesports have eliminated Astralis from ELEAGUE after two maps in the third quarter-final (Mirage 16-2, Dust2 16-12).

Day two of quarter-finals at ELEAGUE saw MOUZ taking on Astralis with Mirage up first in the series. Johannes "⁠nex⁠" Maget's quad-kill in a B rush worked wonders for the German side to start things off, followed up by two uncontested low buys from their opponents.

A clutch situation going their way in the first gunround meant they'd prolong the winning streak more and more. With a few eco's thrown in and two more retake scenarios, MOUZ led 7-0 before the Danes took a timeout.

It only worked for a single round however, as after that another afterplant went the other way and mouz switched over to Counter-Terrorists with a commanding 13-2 lead. With the pistol round in the bag, Nikola "⁠NiKo⁠" Kovač and company came out on top of their opponents' pick at 16-2 after two more clutch rounds.


mousesports dominated Astralis on Mirage

MOUZ' choice was Dust2, though they weren't able to replicate the start on Mirage. Astralis got off to a 2-0 start but ended up dropping an anti-eco to a fired-up NiKo, who got a triple and a 1v1 in the process.

At 3-3 it was the Danes who got three in a row, starting with a quick B split which caught mouz off guard. Getting to a 8-4 lead, Astralis couldn't make it a convincing half as MOUZ had a couple of great reads that earned them seven rounds as Counter-Terrorists.

Nicolai "⁠device⁠" Reedtz, who was already firing at all cylinders, kicked off the second half with a triple in the pistol, putting his team up 11-7. From there on nothing had worked for the struggling powerhouse though, as the German-Bosnian-Dutch mixture piled on rounds to get up to a 13-11 scoreline with a few situations turned on their heads.

After a timeout Astralis found a way to one round, but they were forced to save three guns shortly afterwards and found themselves being up against a match point and on very low economy. In the end, MOUZ closed the series out 16-12, 2-0.

At least immortals won tournaments... Astralis haven't won anything since summer last year, in last months they didn't get out of groups of like 3 tournaments and even after roster change achieved abosulutely nothing... They were in top 5 for most of this year...

Astralis qualified for ECS and ESL Pro-League as top place, so they're online gods. Ofc for Cologne they couldn't do shit. I feel like they haven't gotten a complete chance to prove themselves, when they have to face NiP, they get destroyed. I guess we'll wait and see.

I agree they didn't get chance at cologne, online means nothing except we're waiting and seeing for last year, they have literally done nothing for past year... At least for last 9 months they got to playoffs of every tournament(usually fell out quarters/semis) but now they usually don't even get out of groups... I have no idea how they have been in top 5 for so long..

Probably tried to switch different roles in a small amount of time + They had to re-adjust with both Dupreeh and Kjaerbye. When Dev1ce, Dupreeh and Kjaerbye are all on form, Karrigan and Xyp9x are supporting them and having decent stats, hopefully they do perform in next major/big lan.
