ENCE have fallen into the 0-2 pool alongside Evil Geniuses.
In the next 0-1 game of the day at PGL Stockholm, Liquid have taken down ENCE 16-8 on Dust II. Meanwhile, in the 1-0 CIS matchup, Entropiq slid past Gambit 16-9 on Vertigo.
As a result, Liquid and Gambit both move on to the 1-1 pool. ENCE fall down to the 0-2 pool and will be fighting for their tournament lives on Sunday, while Entropiq march on to the 2-0 pool, where G2 are already sitting. The Russian side continues to impress, having managed their fourth big scalp after defeating Astralis, Liquid and HEROIC across the last couple of days.
Liquid came into Dust II really strong, quickly going up 7-1 against the multi-national side of ENCE. Eventually Olek "hades" Miskiewicz came online and helped ENCE fight back to secure a 7-8 scoreline going into the second half. Half two was a bloodbath, as Jake "Stewie2K" Yip absolutely dominated ENCE, picking up 16 kills in nine rounds and securing up a crucial 1v2 clutch in the third round.

The first half of Vertigo was a hard-fought battle for both CIS teams, with Gambit pulling ahead in the end thanks to Dmitry "sh1ro" Sokolov and Vladislav "nafany" Gorshkov locking down A ramp. The second half was a completely different story however, as Vladislav "Krad" Kravchenko stepped up massively for Entropiq, powering the underdog side to a perfect 10-0 Counter-Terrorist half, and locking down the map victory.
