25-1-2017 17:08

North eliminated G2 at the ELEAGUE Major after defeating them 16-9 on Overpass.

The fourth day at the ELEAGUE Major kicked off with an elimination match between G2 and North. The map was Overpass and the Danish team started on the T-side.

Kristian "⁠k0nfig⁠" Wienecke secured the pistol round with two entry kills and North had a 3-0 lead after the anti-eco rounds. The first weapon round saw Emil "⁠Magisk⁠" Reif pick up two opening kills on the A-site, which secured it for North (4-0).

North are a win away from the playoffs

G2 got their first round after Edouard "⁠SmithZz⁠" Dubourdeaux killed two opponents with an AWP and North ran out of time. The Danes reset their opponent's economy as René "⁠cajunb⁠" Borg won a 1vs1 clutch in the following round.

Ruben "⁠RUBINO⁠" Villarroel and cajunb saved their team by winning a 2vs5 against the eco of G2. Richard "⁠shox⁠" Papillon's triple kill made the score 2-8. cajunb won an incredible AWP 1vs2 clutch to extend his team's lead to 9-3 and the Danes won the half 11-4.

G2 rushed B in the second half pistol round and trailed 7-11 after winning the anti-ecos. G2 decided to keep three MAC-10s in the first weapon round and lost it because of k0nfig's quad kill. North went on to win the match 16-9, improving their record to 2-2 and eliminating G2.

well if scream stepped up like he said he was then they win overpass and maybe next map too

2017-01-25 17:37

Scream was terrible in every game. But lets blame smithzz

Smithzz was too. Both of them were trash

2017-01-25 17:26

2017-01-25 18:01

g2 lul

never was worried for them :D

shoxie :(

scream mad at shox for not getting to the superteam and threw the game Kappa

I would do the same if i was forced to play games, already knowing, that im kicked.

2017-01-25 17:47

G2 never make it out the groups in the major

RIP #1-9

RIP SMITHZ 2k08-2k17 :(

G2 again out on major xD it's unbelievable(or standard?) at this point

Heart-breaking The last game G2 will play as a team and the last that SmithZz will ever play in his career

french shuffle coming up soon

RIP comments #1-9

Fantastic North! Now 1 more match and to the playoff you go! Turning 0-2 to 3-2 would be something else! :) GL brothers

g2 & groupstage a big love story

North played a lot better then in the previous games. Scream came to this tournament to get the sticker money, he didn't give a fuck about the game. His POV showed a guy that had his head somewhere else. Smithz is an offense to any semi pro that don't get a chance to play and show his skill. Bye g2, better luck with the next lineup.

Kids still say that iw was Ex6TenZ fault that Titan/G2 falled in majors.

Well done guys! Convincing victory.

Scream and smithz played like bots

If North makes it all the way to the playoffs it would be a dream comeback for them considering they were almost out with 2 losses in a row. Well played :)

Lmao 2 not 3/or else they would've bombed out like hr and f3

2017-01-25 17:14

Woops, I meant 2 not sure why I wrote 3. Thanks for pointing that out ;)

2017-01-25 17:16

hahah np :)

Although I get what you are saying you are also facing "easier" teams as you have a 0-2 record. North faced HR at 0-2, G2 at 1-2 (which is not a bad team) and will probably play mouz for the 2-2 decider. Nevertheless, if North pull through with this comeback it will be impressive.

It's luck of the draw really, they can face teams who they counter well or vice versa. Sometimes it's not the names that count as much as the match up itself, such as facing Gambit on a map Gambit is super strong on (Cobblestone). Nevertheless, a victory is a victory. You never know, they might seem lackluster now but suddenly get blessed by some divine power during the playoffs and make it super deep with amazing plays, in the same time their opponents might not show up. Honestly for me, I hope they do well and not because of the flag on my name but because I would like the encouragement for other Football clubs to join the fray, them bombing right after a Football club signing doesn't give the best impression.

I think look at their Moscow win. They got walked over the first game and struggled for a bit. But once they came alive they really were unbeatable. I hope this happens now!

2017-01-25 18:00

G2 came prepared to loose this game. Their only hope is EnvyUs to beat fnatic so they can get the major spot after the French La Shufflot.

g2 = french flipside

scream doesnt even give a fuck anymore

2017-01-25 17:11

shox :(

2017-01-25 17:12

this might have been smithzz's last game as a pro the end of an era of getting carried

LUL wiki.teamliquid.net/counterstrike/Lan79/.. Smithzz has been getting carried by rpk and shox since fucking 2009 7.5 years

2017-01-25 17:20

8-17 god scream LUL
