First candidate for the Extreme Masters III Global Finals have been found – fnatic outplays mTw 16:5 on nuke.
The upperbracket final ended just moments ago. The Swedes from fnatic should have their second match against mTw this week. Last time, fnatic only got 7 rounds, but this time, the result most certainly looked different. The Swedes really have to thank Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg and Rasmus "Gux" Ståhl on the CT side, as they play an absolutely outstanding role to the 11:4 win.
Nothing really seemed to wrong for mTw in this match, even as CT. A lost pistol round, but bought in the third round, it all looked great for mTw, but Christopher "GeT_RiGhT" Alesund stopped mTw, by winning a 1 versus 2 situation. The Swedes secured the win by winning 5:1 as T, sending mTw to the consolidation final.
The Danes will tomorrow face MYM, as they totally crushed SK Gaming 16:3 on dust2. It also means that MYM will once again run into the Danes, third time to be the luck one?

Between professional teams there is very rarely EASY wins.
Even if fnatic won now, there is all chance that they will get asskicked from mtw two times tomorrow.
This fnatic over mtw, was mainly two things
a) Fnatic had way better teamplay, MTW didn't had tactic to break that.
b) Fnatic had lot better "aim", MTW lost many important 1vs1 situations. Usually "aim" category goes to "luck" factor, but not this match.
Tomorrow finals, i just think what map comes is played matters most.

very good game by fnatic! The substitutions looks great, they are very dangerous! It's gonna be mTw vs Fnatic in the Final! I think mTw will pull 1 map, but fnatic will win.
