SK faces ESC in CS:GO challenge final

5-4-2012 00:40

The semi-finals have finished at Copenhagen Games where Sound Blaster CS:GO Challenge is taking place today. ESC Gaming faces SK Gaming in the grand final for a chance at 1,000€.

The first semi-final saw ESC Gaming take on the Brazilians of TargetDown CS:S. Filip "Neo" Kubski's team started as terrorists, going up 3-2 in the beginning. The half was very back and forth from there on out, with TD jumping up to a 7-4 lead before losing three out of the four rounds to finish the half 8-7.

After switching sides, Wiktor "TaZ" Wojtas and company once again rallied, as they picked up the pistol round as counter-terrorists and went on a 6-0 run, 13-8 overall. TargetDown resisted for two more rounds, but ESC went on to win 9-2, 16-10 overall.

In the other semi-final, SK Gaming was paired up with the British mousesports CS:S team. After over an hour of delays due to PC issues, the match finally got underway with SK winning the opening pistol round. The Swedes went up 11-0 before the Brits could answer.

mousesports won round twelve, but a retake in the B bombsite led by Christopher "GeT_RiGhT" Alesund scored yet another round for SK who went on to win 14-1. Despite of a slow start in the second half, SK claimed a 16-8 win in the end thanks to a one-on-two clutch by Johan "face" Klasson.

Noobs will be noobs and pros will be pros. proved once again. Rattlesnk bot failed @ 1.6 pro level and went to CS:S and became God there. But playing against 1.6 players, he was again raped today. I am sure all the CS:S noobs will jump to BF3 or COD in case CS 1.6 teams make switch to CS:GO cuz skillwise 1.6 players > any other FPS games.

2012-04-06 16:15

you're all stupid... if you looked on css teams(in tourney) there are no one from top :) so teams like verygames could beat esc and sk :) team like targetdown take 10 rounds from esc... these guys lose to mTw 16-01 on de_nuke. you need to start learn guys... whatever, 1.6 players, playing cs for 14 years? and still can be beat by top teams from css on cs;go :) sad
