MOUZ see off Complexity in Rio
The North Americans have been sent packing after two overtime games.

MOUZ are one victory away from the IEM Rio playoffs after defeating Complexity 2-0 in Group A's lower bracket semi-finals. The scoreline, however, doesn't quite tell the full story as both maps were incredibly close and went to overtime.
Kamil "siuhy" Szkaradek's charges will focus more on the result than on the optics, but they will certainly feel that this one was too close for comfort as they wasted five map points in regulation across the two maps.
With this win, MOUZ have set up an elimination match against FaZe, who they haven't met since the IEM Chengdu final, almost six months ago.

Complexity came out the brighter of the two teams as they romped to a 4-0 lead on their map pick of Vertigo. A no-scope kill from Ádám "torzsi" Torzsás in a 1v1 situation finally put MOUZ on the scoreboard, but the European team struggled to find their rhythm. Finally, an eco victory in the tenth round was the catalyst for MOUZ, who managed to level the score before half-time.
MOUZ carried their new-found momentum into the second half and pinned their opponents against the ropes. It looked like Complexity were down and out after a 0-5 run at the start of the half, but they mustered a late comeback to force overtime.
In the end, however, Complexity's efforts would be for nothing as MOUZ won four rounds without response to steal their opponents' pick.
Inferno followed the same pattern as the first map as MOUZ secured map point but could not close it out after wasting a 4vs2 advantage. Complexity went on to take the game to overtime, but just like on Vertigo, they couldn't muster a single round after regulation.
