HellRaisers take down Vega Squadron

Despite losing the pistol round and the following two after starting on the CT side of Mirage, it was Vega Squadron who took the early lead in their match against HellRaisers. 

Early on, it was Nikolay "⁠mir⁠" Bityukov and Leonid "⁠chopper⁠" Vishnyakov who were pulling the weight for Vega Squadron and the Russian side found themselves up 8-4 shortly. HellRaisers got their fifth round thanks to a fast-paced B attack, but Vega Squadron replied straight away to close out the half 10-5.

The start of the second half featured a few force buys from Vega Squadron that were just barely closed out by HellRaisers, with Martin "⁠STYKO⁠" Styk and then Patrik "⁠Zero⁠" Žúdel clutching out the much-needed rounds for their team. Kyrylo "⁠ANGE1⁠" Karasiow's side then got the rounds and the economy rolling, taking over the 11-10 lead with a B site lockdown by the Slovakian duo.

The perfect CT side continued until the end, in part thanks to Vladyslav "⁠bondik⁠" Nechyporchuk who had a great match overall. The final score was 16-10, as HellRaisers were able to thwart Vega Squadron's offense without any issues.
