Kristjan "⁠fejtZ⁠" Allsaar and his sYnck teammates eliminated Entropiq, while Peter "⁠dupreeh⁠" Rasmussen and Fredrik "⁠roeJ⁠" Jørgensen's Preasy survived a close three-map bout with FORZE.

The next round of eliminations will not come in the 2-2 pool, as the teams finishing in 9-11th place will go to the decider qualifier and will fight there to progress to the RMR. There are now 17 matches either ongoing or set to be played and at the end of it, only one out of six teams from the decider qualifier will be eliminated.

looked to me like they came straight from winter skiing vacation, bad aim, bad calls and didnt even clear half of the positions on the bombsite.

Krimbo gets contract renewal and instantly becomes ass. Hope he is happy with the money as long as he doesnt spend it on skins and bitcoin.

Completely didn't expect that from BIG tbh., a massive surprise, a roster change coming now? prosus seems ok but s1n isn't looking good in my eyes, with them speaking English it shouldn't be hard to find an upgrade.

BIG disband or at least let everyone get 500$ lessons from MSL so he can tell them to check angles.

They won two online events last year and were looking pretty good, yeah. But that only adds to the pain now, I’m a massive fan of them but they sadly continue to disappoint. Missing the Major twice in a row is a huge bummer. Not really in the mood to cheer for them right now but I hope they will do well in blast at least…

So disappointed. Missing two majors in a row is inexcusable. I mean, the players are probably even more sad than us fans, but still… Always acting like they know what they are doing but in the end they win one or two online t2 event a year, give us fans some hope with it and then proceed to achieve nothing for the rest of the season. I love tabseN and gob but you cannot blame it on the players anymore. Every iteration of this team is doing the same mistakes for years all over again with different players, it’s so bad you can make a bingo card out of it. Please get another coach / IGL.

i also think they lost cause of the coach/igl the calls are sometimes way to slow they dont play with a lurk and executes in the last 20 sec i just remember one round on ancient in the best of 3 they were 4vs3 up, all were in front of b door, they had 0 map and just waited until an awp came from t spawn to kill them before even executing
