G2 to DH Malmö semis over SK
G2 have advanced to the semi-finals at DreamHack Masters Malmö after beating SK 2-1 (11-16 on Cobblestone, 19-17 on Inferno, and 16-11 on Mirage).
The first quarter-final at DreamHack Masters Malmö was between G2 and SK. The Brazilians kicked off the series on the T-side on Cobblestone which was their map pick.
Fernando "fer" Alvarenga secured the pistol round with three kills and SK made it 3-0 after winning the anti-ecos. Nathan "NBK-" Schmitt's double kill and Kenny "kennyS" Schrub' triple gave G2 the first weapon round but they got reset in the following round when Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo picked up a triple kill.

Because G2 couldn't initiate a streak on their CT-side, they trailed 4-11 at halftime. Their troubles were compounded when they lost the first two rounds of the second half (13-4). SK made it 15-6 with FalleN's double kill and earned nine match points. The Brazilians closed out the map on their sixth attempt, winning 16-11.
The second map was Inferno where the Frenchmen started on the CT-side. In the pistol round, João "felps" Vasconcellos and Marcelo "coldzera" David clutched a 2vs3 to win it. felps followed it up with an ace in the second round, making it 2-0. SK managed to win the first weapon round despite kennyS' two opening kills (4-0).

Just like on Cobblestone, the French squad couldn't stop SK's T-side plays on Inferno and were behind after the first half (9-6). fer's quad kill in the second half pistol round made it 10-6 and SK won three more rounds to lead 13-6.
Richard "shox" Papillon showed up in the twentieth round with an ace and a 1vs1 clutch, winning his team their seventh round. SK had five match points but lost all of those rounds as G2 tied the game at 15-15, taking it to overtime. The Frenchmen completed the comeback and won the map 19-17.
SK made a thunderous start to Mirage where they were on the T-side in the first half. The Brazilians won the first five rounds but lost the sixth as they ran out of time. SK then lost a 3vs2, giving G2 their second round in a row (5-2).
G2 went on to tie the game at 5-5 but couldn't take the lead as fer picked up a quad kill to make it 6-5 in SK's favor. The French team won the first half 8-7.
SK won yet another pistol round but G2 responded in the first weapon round to get their ninth round (10-9). Dan "apEX" Madesclaire got a quad kill to make it 10-10 and G2 kept dominating on their T-side and won the map 16-11 and series 2-1.
