fnatic through to semis over Gambit

fnatic are through to the semi-finals at the ELEAGUE Major after defeating Gambit 2-1 (16-7 on Cache, 3-16 on Overpass and 16-7 on Dust2).

Cache was the first map of the series, and here fnatic got off to a blazing fast start, punishing Gambit on a force buy after losing the pistol round. The Swedes brought the scoreline to a 10-2 advantage before Gambit tightened up their defense and picked up the last three rounds of the half.

The second half began with Gambit taking the pistol round following a B execute, with Abay "⁠HObbit⁠" Khassenov getting three kills to his name. But just like before, fnatic fought back in the next round, thanks to three stunning Desert Eagle headshots.

fnatic remained in the driving seat and quickly reached map point, powered by in-form Simon "⁠twist⁠" Eliasson. Gambit still picked up a round with an A execute, but fnatic quickly locked down the map to take the lead in the series.

twist was the MVP of the series 

Rustem "⁠mou⁠" Telepov opened the game up on Overpass with a quad kill in the pistol round, putting Gambit in the lead. After taking both anti-ecos, Gambit further extended their lead by taking control of the A site, with Danylo "⁠Zeus⁠" Teslenko taking three crucial frags.

Down 0-5, fnatic finally picked up their first round courtesy of a triple kill from Freddy "⁠KRIMZ⁠" Johansson, but then they had to deal with a hard reset after shockingly wasting a 4on2 situation. Any round that fnatic took in the half was quickly countered with a round by Gambit, and so the Swedes were held off any economic development until the end of the half, which ended with a one-sided 12-3 scoreline in favour of the Kazakhstani side.

Things went from bad to worse for fnatic, who lost the pistol round on the Terrorist side. With the economic advantage and the momentum swinging in their favour, they would go on to win the next three rounds en route to a convincing 16-3 finish.

It all came down to Dust2, where fnatic came out of the gate looking scary, storming to an 8-0 lead as Gambit struggled to keep up with the pace of their opponents. But then things finally started clicking for Gambit, who won six of the next seven rounds to end the half with a close 9-6 scoreline.

The second half was a complete blowout, with fnatic dropping just one round on the CT side before running out 16-7 victors on the map, a result that sees them move on to the last-four stage in Atlanta.
