The MongolZ qualify for PW Shanghai Major
The Mongolian squad came back from an opening map loss to beat DRILLAS in three.

The MongolZ have secured the first spot at the Perfect World Shanghai Major with a 2-1 victory over DRILLAS in the Asia RMR's upper bracket after beating Alter Ego on Monday in the opening round.
The team backed by Mark "ohnePixel" Zimmermann were briefly allowed to dream as they ran away 10-2 on the attacking side of Mirage, and although The MongolZ made a comeback in the second half, a big triple by Tal "meztal" Hahiashvili holding the B site opened the door for his team to take the series lead in the final round of regulation, 13-11.
DRILLAS couldn't muster up the same momentum on either of the two following maps: The MongolZ's Ancient pick and the Anubis decider. The European squad struggled to play from behind and with Azbayar "Senzu" Munkhbold, who had gone missing on Mirage, back in full force alongside Ayush "mzinho" Batbold and Sodbayar "Techno" Munkhbold, as well as Usukhbayar "910" Banzragch on point with the AWP, DRILLAS didn't stand a chance.
In the end, the story of the match was one of DRILLAS fighting tooth and nail after taking a big lead to close their map pick while The MongolZ rolled over their opposition in the following two. While DRILLAS could dream that they were just one map away from making it, Garidmagnai "bLitz" Byambasuren's men delivered on their condition as the top team in the tournament.
TALON and Rare Atom are going head to head for the second spot at the Major from the Asia RMR, while the third slot will be awarded on Wednesday when the lower bracket ends.
