The first day of ESL Challenger Katowice came to an end with Monte eliminating MIBR from the tournament in a two-map series (Mirage 13-3, Anubis 19-17).

Olek "⁠hades⁠" Miskiewicz and company stay alive on their LAN debut with the win and are set to meet Legacy for a playoff spot on Saturday. "Another Brazilian team. We will try to prepare and sleep as well as we can, and not underestimate them," Paweł "⁠dycha⁠" Dycha said about the upcoming match.

On the other side of the server, this is a disappointing result for MIBR. The Brazilians made their LAN debut with Lucas "⁠Lucaozy⁠" Neves but couldn't get going in either of their matches and thus leave Katowice without a map victory to their name.

Monte got off to a hot start on Mirage after winning the pistol, with their offensive half powered by hades, who finished on 14 kills after a 10-2 half. The fortunes didn't change for MIBR in the second half either, as the Brazilians lost three rounds in a row to peter out in a 13-2 loss.

MIBR answered with a better showing on their pick of Anubis. While they started with a rough defensive half that netted them only three rounds, they shifted into a higher gear on the T side. A pistol-round victory and an early reset of the Monte economy helped them reduce the deficit to 8-10, and the Brazilians kept up the momentum to force overtime.

MIBR seemed to have done enough to force a decider after going up 15-12, but Monte rallied late to take the map in the second overtime and stay alive at their home event.
