SK and FaZe secure victories in New York

SK and FaZe have picked up their first victories at ESL One New York after defeating EnVyUs and Virtus.pro, respectively.

SK kicked off the Group A opener against Envy by securing the pistol round, but they could not follow it up as their opponents responded on a force-buy. The Frenchmen continued to rack up rounds, with a 1v2 clutch from Alexandre "⁠xms⁠" Forté giving them their fourth on the board.

Down 5-1, the Brazilians were finally able to get back to the game thanks to a triple-kill from Gabriel "⁠FalleN⁠" Toledo. That was the start of a great run from the Brazilians, who would win eight rounds in a row.

SK defeat EnVyUs in their first match

A quad-kill from FalleN helped SK to secure yet another pistol round, only for the Brazilians to lose the following anti-eco once again. Envy would still reach the 12-round mark, but in the end SK would lock down the map, 16-12.

The first match of Group B in New York saw Virtus.pro get off on the right foot by winning the first three rounds as Counter-Terrorists. After buying up, FaZe gained control of proceedings, eventually equalizing the score at 3-3. 

Both teams then traded rounds, but it was the European mixture who began stringing rounds together, eventually closing out the half with a commanding 10-5 lead. 

FaZe are one victory away from securing a place in the semi-finals

The second half of the match proved to be a one-sided affair as FaZe did not lose a single round, closing out the match with a comprehensive 16-5 scoreline.

coldzera is overrated. SK sucks on inferno. FalleN can't press m1. fepls is inexperienced. The only good thing in SK is that they have good IGL. Same for FaZe. karrigan may not pass his teammates by score but he made FaZe from shit team to tier 1.
