MOUZ deny TYLOO upset in Chengdu

The PGL Major Copenhagen quarter-finalists will go up against FURIA later for a spot in the playoffs.

The second pair of matches at IEM Chengdu came to a close with MOUZ edging past TYLOO in a 13-11 match on Overpass and FURIA taking revenge on Lynn Vision for their PGL Major Copenhagen loss.

The winners will face off later in the day in the Group A upper semi-finals for a place in the playoffs. Local rivals TYLOO and Lynn Vision are set to face off for the fourth time this year in the elimination zone, with the former up against the ropes after falling short in the matchup the last three times.

FURIA got away with a straightforward win in their Chinese matchup, with strong starts on each half of Ancient helping them secure a 13-9 win, but MOUZ had a much tougher go of things on their end.

Despite winning both pistols the big favorites had to fight till the end and needed a hot performance from Jimi "⁠Jimpphat⁠" Salo to pick up the best-of-one victory.

TYLOO's full eco win when down 6-10 certainly helped their cause, but just the same MOUZ ended up swaying it with a halfbuy win on their own at 10-10, and two straight B executes in the final two rounds edged the match their way.
