Na´Vi victorious at ASUS Spring

29-5-2011 19:46

Natus Vincere have taken out the ASUS Spring 2011 after defeating DTS on both de_nuke 16-7 and de_dust2 16-11. This marks the first ASUS tournament win for Na'Vi in their impressive career so far.

The first match of the final would see de_nuke, a map Na´Vi usually stay well clear of, but have shown a liking to it so far this competition. It would be DTS however, that got the better start and started to open up a bit of a lead on the favoured Counter-terrorists. Once Na´Vi got into the rhythm of the map, they were able to claw their way back and take a slender 8-7 lead at the break. Na´Vi continued to mount on the pressure in the second half and managed to win the eight consecutive rounds needed to end the map 16-7.

Markeloff pleased with his teams success.

The second map de_dust2 started off similar to the first, DTS managed to win the opening pistol and take majority of the opening rounds. Once again Na´Vi clawed their way back into the contest and went into the break leading DTS 9-6. Na'Vi continued their momentum and took the pistol round straight after the break, from here they never looked back winning the required seven rounds to take the map 16:11.

lol.. nice joke

2011-05-29 20:52

Why joke? You see the match and scores?

2011-05-29 20:58

M5 are very unstable and they have no moral and teamplay when they face teams with good tactics and teamplay, they just fall down, so thats no surprise that they lost dts

why fail? USSR played good.

Not Russia, Moscow. Cs doesn't develop in Russia, almost all players in top teams are from Moscow. So top2 UA maybe > Moscow

every1 know it :) but i think that m5 are stronger that dts

2011-05-30 10:13

16:11, 16:3 DTS won, they 're much stronger. So stop be so bigoted.

2011-05-30 11:58

and what? M5 won against SK 16:3 at IEM quali but that doesn't mean they much stronger. M5 just had a bad day. I know they can easily beat DTS.

2011-05-30 18:17

but they not do it 2 ASUSes in a row. Last asus they playing tight match and that asus they lose with bad scores. so don't say that...

2011-05-30 19:14

ASUS winter M5 2:1 DTS with overtimes ASUS spring M5 2:0 (11:16, 3:16) DTS m5 not stronger then dts

2011-05-30 19:18

How many times will you remember this lucky map? SK are weak on INFERNO and they have new line-up then. And m5 take 7-8 place there. So who cares about that inferno? In "face" matches DTS was rly stronger imo. But you're a fan, ofcourse argue.

2011-05-30 19:20

"DTS was rly stronger imo" Who need your opinion? i say what i think and what i know. M5 and DTS are pretty same level. Today M5 lose, tomorrow win, this match doesn't mean anything, like "lucky" inferno vs SK.

2011-05-30 19:50

*lol*

2011-05-30 12:00

oh, what a fanb0y..

cool story bro ;) DTS [16:11, 16:3] M5 so ...

2011-05-30 12:01

'r u crazy?!

No, they are not stronger then DTS.

2011-05-30 18:25

big part of UA players and community are not russians, they just speak russian, because the USSR(CCCP) - soviet union ;)

2011-05-30 19:13

lol how old are you? Don't tell obvious things, i know that almost all people in Ukraine are ruussian-speaking. You know how many ethnic russians live in ukraine?
