3DMAX beat OG to progress in Thunderpick
3DMAX are one win away from securing a spot in the LAN portion of Thunderpick World Championship.

3DMAX have claimed a spot in the next round of Thunderpick World Championship thanks to a 2-0 win over last-minute replacements OG, earning their victory with wins on Ancient (13-10) and Inferno (13-11).
The French side are now only on win away from progressing to the LAN finals, with that match to be played October 26. OG will have to face Virtus.pro in the group decider match, the team that the European combine upset in their opener in Thunderpick.

The close score lines in the two maps played in this series somewhat flattered OG, as they were outplayed on both. The European combine scraped a winning T half on Ancient before being easily overrun on their CT half, and should have been put away more comfortably after starting 0-8 down on Inferno, but 3DMAX squandered several golden opportunities to close more comfortably.
3DMAX have been one of the better sides in tier-two for some time now, hovering around the No. 20 mark in the world rankings without being able to push on. Wins over first Falcons and now OG in Thunderpick haven't done much to bolster their credentials, but they can now look forward to fighting for a LAN berth and playing matchups that will likely be against stiffer opposition.

From the high of their upset win over Virtus.pro, OG were brought back down to earth with the way they were confidently disposed of by 3DMAX. Considering the fact they are playing this event with a stand-in and came in as last-minute replacements, they will still take heart from their performances thus far.
