The MongolZ smash G2 to reach playoffs; FURIA eliminate Lynn Vision

Senzu and 910 left G2 looking desolate on Inferno and Dust2.

The MongolZ have secured a playoff berth at IEM Dallas after a resounding 2-0 victory over G2 in Group A's upper bracket, setting up a match against Vitality for a chance to skip straight to the semi-finals.

FURIA, who fell to The MongolZ on day one, kept their tournament campaign alive by comfortably dispatching of Lynn Vision in the lower bracket, but need to beat GamerLegion and the winner of the other Group A lower bracket semi-final between 3DMAX and G2 to reach the playoffs.

It was all laughs in the The MongolZ camp throughout dominant showings on Inferno and Dust2, led by Azbayar "⁠Senzu⁠" Munkhbold on the former and Usukhbayar "⁠910⁠" Banzragch on the latter.

The 18-year-old rifler was at his group stage best, tallying six multi-kill rounds and single-handedly obliterating G2's haphazard site defenses and attacks. That started from round one, where Senzu downed four with a Glock to pull back a 2v5, and he and The MongolZ never let up from there.

Two triples from Janusz "⁠Snax⁠" Pogorzelski gave G2 two of their only round wins in an otherwise disastrous half, with The MongolZ executing a flawless game plan to ease to a 13-4 victory.

That dominance continued on Dust2 with 910 taking the reins, winning a morale-crushing 1v3 as G2 continued to look lost. A Deagle quad kill from Mario "⁠malbsMd⁠" Samayoa was their only highlight in an otherwise destitute series, while The MongolZ looked back to their best as they cruised to a playoff berth.

More highlights from The MongolZ vs. G2:

• G2 fumble despite hades triple

• malbsMd bails G2 out with all-headshot Deagle 4k

• 910 1v3 crushes G2's morale

• Senzu's Scout double wins the force

FURIA were made to work for their opening map victory over Lynn Vision, going down 0-4 and 4-7 early doors on Dust2.

However, an emphatic CT-side performance from Danil "⁠molodoy⁠" Golubenko helped his side avoid an upset, with the Kazakhstani sniper topping the charts with a 26-14 K-D and 1.70 rating to lock Lynn Vision out for much of the second half to snatch a 13-10 victory.

Yuri "⁠yuurih⁠" Santos and Gabriel "⁠FalleN⁠" Toledo stepped up alongside him for a more comfortable win on Anubis, with Lynn Vision allowing a 1v2 from molodoy and a 3v5 from FURIA to give away two of their few opportunities to get into the game.

More highlights from FURIA vs. Lynn Vision:

• KSCERATO mops up Deagles with a 4k

• FURIA piece together the 3v5

• FURIA avoid loss to Deagles after molodoy 1v2 and FalleN 3k
