OG, Heroic, FURIA through to quarter-finals at cs_summit 7

29-1-2021 02:02

The last-chance stage will determine the two final playoffs teams.

OG, HEROIC, and FURIA have secured their berth in the bracket stage of cs_summit 7 after coming out on top of their respective groups' deciding matches, against Dignitas, MIBR, and Cloud9.

The losing trio will get another shot at a spot in the single elimination playoffs as they'll play in the last-chance matches, which are set to take place on Friday before the first quarter-final series, with Dignitas slated to go against Ninjas in Pyjamas in a Swedish brawl and MIBR locking horns with Cloud9.

f0rest's squad will face his former NiP teammates in the last-chance stage

All three deciding matches went the full distance. Dignitas made OG sweat in a nail-biting finish to their three-map series, which saw Aleksi "⁠Aleksib⁠" Virolainen's men win the deciding Dust2 in overtime. The new MIBR lineup took HEROIC by surprise in another three-mapper, where the Danish side came back from a 1-7 deficit on Mirage to clinch their spot in the playoffs.

In the last match of Thursday, FURIA had Nicholas "⁠guerri⁠" Nogueira back in a full coaching role after his ESIC ban ended and went toe-to-toe with Cloud9 in a full best-of-three. The series saw the latter team's newest addition, Erick "⁠Xeppaa⁠" Bach, carry his team to a win on Inferno, before a massive performance from Andrei "⁠arT⁠" Piovezan made the difference on Train as the Brazilians advanced.

The schedule for the rest of the $200,000 tournament looks as follows:

Friday, January 29
14:00 Dignitas vs. Ninjas in Pyjamas (last chance match)
17:30 MIBR vs. Cloud9 (last chance match)

2021-01-29 06:25

expected

This C9 lineup is the biggest waste of money i have ever seen. C9 should fire HenryG immediately.

Honestly I have greatly enjoyed cs_summit 7 - The matches have been incredible thus far. :)

2021-01-29 02:06

I agree with that, but just wanna point out the lack of quality on the streams, we just got out blast to see some horrible things

+1 worst streaming ever, the Brazilian stream got down more than once today

LET'S GO OG matto alta!

not real upsets

2021-01-29 02:08

How did C9 got convinced into spending money on this team? Alex igl is questionable, but his awp is horrendous...

i know, i was thinking about the org's actually

2021-01-29 18:06

I am very happy for the fury of the Yuurih. more today I was disappointed once again with the low yield of the danoco a very bad choice hopefully it will improve and the Brazilian chat is rubbish only has a spoiled child slk

2021-01-29 02:15

C9 should had just bought ex-chaos, probably way cheaper for the same results

at this point just fire this roster and get ex-mibr who will bring in tons of merch sales and br fans. they did more in 2 weeks with a tier 2 salary than this c9 has done in its lifetime. c9 spends more on 1 month of salary for es3tag than mibr did on that roster ex-mibr: destroys furia, takes g2 and astralis to their limits, top 4 at flashpoint c9: bomb out of flashpoint in last place

2021-01-29 02:35

ugh, 2 games in a row for someone on sunday, when will they learn?

2021-01-29 02:31

for both teams it will be 2 games in a row

15:00 Semi-final #1 18:30 Semi-final #2 ?

2021-01-29 07:42

Without any offense but cloud9 looks ridiculous, I still don't know role of mezii and he's basically useless, plus they have 3 passive players alex, es3, mezii, and no awp, this things can't work unfortunately, xeppa is good choice and team looks better but they need to change something immediately, remove mezzi (nothing against dude) and find some good awp or another good rifle star player, alex and es3tag are enough for support

2021-01-29 02:36

i think elige/ropz and 4 faceit lv10s would do better than this lineup and that’s saying something

2021-01-29 02:39

mezii is the support... and mezii has been playing pretty good considering he was playing t2/t3 CS not long ago + he is a support meanwhile players like floppy and esetag are only slightly higher rated while having better roles & being treated more as stars... so no, kicking mezii would be the worst move they could possibly do

2021-01-29 03:12

But es3tag is not star player, he's basically support but more skilled, (like xyp9x) and Alex is also passive igl... It's impossible for them to be t1 with this team, I'm not saying that anyone of them is a bad player but this composition is not work in this cs right now,

2021-01-29 10:46

Es3tag is C9's lurker and as stated by HenryG himself, he is supposed to be an "entry/aggressive rifler". So Es3tag is not a support and that's good since he is a good player. But yes, I agree, C9 are a very passive team (they remind me of OG), but mezii isn't the problem. I think Xeppaa fits in nicely, so if there was someone I would remove it would be Floppy. He has 0 to no impact, he isn't that good and he is playing that star player role mostly.

2021-01-29 10:51

I didn't know that about es3tag, thanks, but it would be better for them to put him as support because he's skilled enough to play this role super good and he will be aggressive for support role, and I would remove mezii and find some good awp and ok they can remove floppy and find more skilled/experience player but I think that they know that floppy is good but somehow he's also not playing good because all team is playing bad but you right

Clown9

2021-01-29 03:46

C9 need awper xeppa is good but they already had enough with rifle! They just needed someone to do crazy stuffs with awp, woxic was inconsistent but that rooster with him was much better than this!

2021-01-29 05:55

man how the fuck clown 9 wasted so much money on this bot named es3frag

Bro believe me he's super good and skilled player but he's support player and here he plays some hybrids role because mezii is also some kind of support and alex is passive playr also, this is their problem I think. They need to put him as real support and find some star rifle or awp player instead mezii

2021-01-29 10:52

They need a top 10 carry player and a strong rifler... No teamwork, no strats and they seem to be pugging

2021-01-29 07:16

Nipnitas vs NIP

2021-01-29 07:49

OG seems dead anyway. Heroic is showing a little bit of life left in them, with small changes they could still be really good. FURIA is dead with honda, hopefully it will be better with junior.
