Cloud9 secure Major spot over F3

2-7-2017 16:02

Cloud9 have secured a spot at PGL Major Krakow 2017 after beating FlipSid3 16-3 on Mirage.

FlipSid3 took on Cloud9 on Mirage for a spot at PGL Major Krakow 2017. The CIS-team who started on the CT-side won the pistol round but the force buy was too strong for them to handle in the second round (1-1).

Cloud9 took two more rounds to lead 3-1 before FlipSid3 could respond. However, Cloud9 reset FlipSid3's economy in the following round, leading 4-2. Cloud9 reached to nine rounds before losing a 5vs3 (9-3). However, this didn't stop Cloud9's momentum as they won the half 12-3.

Cloud9 secure a spot at the Major

The second half pistol round saw the North Americans winning a 3vs4 after-plant, giving themselves a huge advantage to win the game. Jordan "⁠n0thing⁠" Gilbert & company closed out the game with ease, winning 16-3 and securing a spot at the Major.

Y'all kids are talking shit about shroud and I am here to do something about it. Have you ever seen such a GREAT support player like SHROUD? Have you seen every single kill set up by SHROUD for his teammates? Y'all think that shroud should retire? Think twice because Cloud9 is being run singlehandedly by SHROUD. Every kill is planned meticulously by SHROUD, setting them up for his team to kill. Every single execute smoke and flash is thrown by SHROUD. Without SHROUD Cloud9 would not even be in Top 10 NA. Think twice again before talking shit about SHROUD again kids.

You wouldn't know they qualified if you listened to the commentary. Zero fucking hype from the casters when they won.

Every fan knew

I know it was hard to hype such a one sided match. Still expected a bit more from the casters though

This article is pretty shit too. "Yeah cloud9 managed to win some rounds, eventually getting to 16 before flipside" Shit writing HLTV

2017-07-02 16:16

boring map with boring end. but deserved spot for the major for c9

well what you know, its liife. But also HLTV writing sometimes can be a lot one sided towards a team too, so no one is safe
