VP shut down BIG to make BLAST Spring Final

BIG were unable to secure revenge for their earlier loss in the group.

Jame led Virtus.pro by example on Overpass

Virtus.pro have snagged a place in the BLAST Premier Spring Final after securing a 2-0 victory over BIG, repeating their earlier win over the German side from their debut match in the Spring Groups.

The series kicked off on Virtus.pro's pick of Overpass, where the Russian side found themselves in an early deficit after BIG propelled themselves to a 7-2 scoreline on the defensive side. Unfazed, Virtus.pro rallied the half's three remaining rounds to claim a 5-7 scoreline heading into their CT side. A pistol round win and a 1v3 clutch from David "⁠n0rb3r7⁠" Danielyan kept the momentum going for Virtus.pro to start the second half, allowing them to quickly tie things up with BIG.

After reclaiming the lead with a streak of three rounds on the offense, BIG began to stall once Virtus.pro's economy started to recover. After allowing Virtus.pro to tie things up once again, the death knell for BIG was sounded after two consecutive last-second A site pushes were soundly shut down by the defenders, allowing VP to lock down their map pick despite the German side's best efforts.

Virtus.pro kept things rolling on their opponent's pick of Anubis, marching to a 6-1 lead on the T side. BIG cobbled together two rounds to keep the Russians honest, but Virtus.pro still came out of the half on top with a 9-3 record.

A pistol round win to kick off the second half allowed BIG to string together three rounds in a row, but Virtus.pro shrugged off this development with three rounds of their own to secure a 2-0 victory.

Although denied their first opportunity to compete in London, BIG will have another shot to qualify through the Spring Groups with their upcoming matchup against Astralis.

BIG is a tactical team and can take advantage if the opponent has issues with that side of the game, or in C9's case doesn't have a real awper which can be abused with the right tactics.

just accept that BIG cant win 2-3 matches in a row against solid squads. C9 played awful thats it.

What I'm saying is that they can't beat V.P. for example at all or maybe in 1 out of 10 matches, because they don't get the tactical initiative.

this is what i literally talking about this is where BIG get their 1 win out of like 7-10 matches. this is how it is sometimes. and some BIG fans overreact like they did something unique. :D

we all know that if 10 matches played against C9 - BIG wins their 2 and C9 get their 8. I often find myself in matches where C9 fail, as was the case with betboom, C9 are just not ready to win yet. I'm not saying that BIG didn't deserve to win, but if c9 had played at their old level, Big would have taken 15 rounds for 2 maps as usual

Yeah, but I disagree that this C9 with no awper could be that dominant. Maybe 50:50 until they get a real awper who can at least beat mantuu, which isn't actually that big of an ask.

Well, C9 are tilters. They always start strong, and fall further the tournament goes. I casually win some money after betting for them and against them later. They need to work on their mentality, I don't think the lack of AWPer is their main problem.
