Complexity vs FaZe Clan - IEM Sydney 2023 Grand Final

a new territory for the battle on the tside complexity plenty of nades what's the call pressure high and odds against [Applause] them re's got a lot of space four players stacked towards B phas ready to lock horns complexity here it comes they're stacked up Grim he's got so much to deal with hiding in plain sight though what is good so flashed it was Rob's flash Brokey profits it's robs with him even exchanges they overed him he's not dead and neither are they a three on three robs falls back it's JT that tips the scales in complexity's favor yeah this fourman stack is falling apart for phas here three versus two bear in mind the bomb's not down right now a player smoked off towards short is robs and Ray quite the deadly Duo to deal with this predicament the Cole they're biting their time they're not rushing this one they still got a minute on the clock waiting for the for the next pick rain and robs disconnected but can strike in unison all the same this patience from complexity oh and JT's got the bomb but he's got the eyes on the prize gets the shot job done robs too much on his plate I say that with a quick click he makes it a 1 V2 still not planting not in a hurry oh this costing them does it really cost them everything not like this to start hog the pressure Rises no armor on him the flash the P what a way to get this Grand Final started that really does set the tone complexity trying to play it by the book not trying to rush the situation they don't get the bomb down they find the pcks but robs absolutely destroys them a fourman stack toward the B bomb site they are one step ahead and it's robs closing things out cleanly ice cold as he takes down Hors there but the bomb was at least planted oh cool by name called by Nature that is massive from Robin Cole a huge round to pick up and a clutch to settle the nerves of the phase Camp that's one way to start this Grand Final campaign but that bomb went down Alex we know what that means complexity can bounce back with a very potent Force by Gil's out in force even a couple of AKs yeah who are they going to test it seems like it might be none other than rain on Longs side oh hell of a position for that M4 but JT cracks things open finds broi towards a barom here an early Advantage here complexity losing the pistol but the bomb goes down rifles across the board oh rain might need a double kill they're testing him it's all or nothing and he will take two necessary and beautifully executed to keep things tied up nicely but look at the reaction faes are aware that there are a lot of bodies over towards a they're going to try and take some real estate over towards this be site carrian calling monster somewhat clear twist peering out short nothing to report the problem is though I guess we've got a couple of smokes available with complexity but that's about it you can see a distinct lack of information for FaZe what's the reaction here we have got robs pushing down towards long trying to find something here trying to confirm that be call two players waiting otherwise but it's the fases waiting caragan desperately holding on to the smoke here trying to deny access and they've given away a shot there that smoke goes down that's the que for carria that locks them out for another 15 seconds here they're going to have to readdress the issue now maybe go back towards Sha but twist what a tournament he's had he's ready and waiting his fan m is red hot right now and this twist one and done JT trying to get into the sight they don't know about carrian 20 seconds and from behind rsel strike awkward for floppy now with only 18 seconds he considers the plant punching in the code kagan's got him dead to right and the force by Falls flat for complexity you can see how fired up twist got just there you know what that means a free round coming up you deal with that Force spot you completely deny it they're R able to get any traction complexity and this is great if you can keep a team who don't know what it feels like to play in a grand final stage quiet immediately they're on Ice Henry I love this positioning from rain as well he knew he needed a double kill there and he delivers on all fronts massive frag from carrian as well denying that PL making sure there's no cash going forward it should be not very much to speak up here hold up have they bought yeah well at least inv we've got the hero AK-47 it's very met right now pistols otherwise couple of Glocks in the mix but Al what a player he is bear in mind no helmet but he has got the AK-47 in hand if they're going to do anything with this round he needs to find his pick towards long the element of surprise work in their favor and they're going for a nice little boost here on top of the slide yeah broky he stays reserved doesn't take any engagement but it's rain that looks like he's going to get a little inquisitive and profits from it it away that's the lead revealing the AK oh dear hang on robs you got a bit hungry for for that one the double dig destruction from Hower well well well now we have got a round on our hands they'll recovered the rifles they've taken damage on rub but they're sticking together the wolf pack mentality as three players make their way towards long bomb on the back how floppy here this would be a sobering round to lose after the first two yeah this one make FaZe have to reflect on that aggression might have to reel it in because they're packing a punch just one flash here bear in mind they've got no utility to smoke off bank will spawn caragan it's a prime position but again he'll need a couple of frags here there's the flash it's a beauty as well it completely shots carrian down and now twist will have to be the hero rotating in from connector but he's got so much to deal with here great first shot can he find the second not going to happen and it's the hero AK-47 of a Le that posts the first round of complexity we thought the hard work was done you win against the force SP he denied the plant you're expecting them here to be on an Eco that dropped AK JT putting a lot of trust in his Superstar the newest pick up delivering immediately and Hower deagle Al knows he's had to mature in this he can't be the tilter for the team he has to keep them on the straight and narrow and this will allow these players like your how like your Grims like your floppies to enable and find these impact frags massive work and you can see just how fired up howzer gets that was a nothing round I mean haer's deag has definitely gotten under the skin of FaZe Clan and a response in kind deagles and Kevlar early space taken yeah huge advantage of course here for complexity it is the force SP from FaZe trying to make that MP9 worker range doesn't work out significant damage towards floppy but it's a double kill for complexity five versus three now and it's two deagles in a 57 one smoke remaining on the CT side and they've got pretty much all their Manpower on this b side of the map rain would have to do something Unthinkable on this side of the map to do anything with the round yeah that was his chance yeah he missed off that first d shot won't get many more opportunities it's in complexity's interest to keep this one by the book Lobby he has conceded the first carrian but immediately punished for his over aggression just two of these sidearms remaining and it's rain rotating through good nade damage to soften broy further still a one shot head shot would have been nice and that's exactly what rain provides well broi can you find anything here on the B bomb side it's desperate now he's low on health rain will join him as well but complexity patient as ever fighting their time and picking up the second round bear in mind that was the force SP from FaZe as well that's a massive round of pick up considering they lost the first two and then the hero AK-47 getting them his prime position now they are in a great spot it should take the lead 3 to2 yeah well that's what we said about complexity a moment ago I I don't expect the CTS to be able to invest in anything just as crazy so this is a chance for us to there's not even the option to get the fam out there there's nothing to even bring to the table it has to be USPS across the board and in terms of bogey strategies that you can do on a map like overpass you really just have to hope that they walk into the stack but with the ranges favoring them I don't really see much that FaZe can do in a round like this a h to disperse the smoke Grim you're getting suck right in in the face the ma 10 one done but more players noted yeah and that's the main issue knowing where they are cuz once you do JT handles it light work hey an in game leader dream some stat padding with the Eco frags and that's likely while the SM comes onto the face absolutely we're going to round six he's already a nine frags that's an amazing performance from JT so far easy spray down but you take it all day long no real trouble there it's a nice little approach from FaZe they managed to up aill but that's about it now what's the cash looking like going forward you know the or is a point of contention right now in CS2 is difficult to bring it out especially if you get reset the man of the pH have and they're going to bring out a tactical timeout bringing in Neo to kind of raise the spirits and hopefully work out the problem here I want to really lean into that point Henry Neo's been quite Li with taking these timeouts when he feels it's necessary and this is a key moment it's the first real quote unquote gun round that we're about to see of this first half of play the first of the Grand Final so I like the Neo is just letting them take this moment to reather themselves find out how they want to open the last thing a quick 10 20 seconds you haven't decided exactly how you want to open and then you lose another round and into another Eco so very important especially in mr12 and just to note as well H not going for the awp here bringing out that c once again which he's been doing absolute work with all tournament long of course not the same luxury available here for face they'll be operating with m4s across the board here floppy with the initial utility trying to get that short control molotovs down in Rain combed with broky great opening frag just what they needed here can they peel off B full space onto the B side up short now twist it's caught off guard El Le gets one floppy the other and that is the sight the bomb little bit late it's HZ bringing it through ah they're rerouting all the way around the world here they know they don't have any territory to do so and this is going to milk an awful lot of time of the clock and bear in mind there's no kits no utility on the CT side you might be considering saving at this point unless someone finds a great opening frag that is not in position to do anything with this I think it's a locked in round I do love the call there direct towards B knowing that FaZe lacking util likely going to be going aggressive towards eight look at Rob sure he's gone around the world and been able to caught him off here but as you mentioned no kids this one looks hopeless I think they're just looking for exit at this point and that's just going to be a minor Victory if they find a couple it's more important they hold on to the little they have the three m4s bear in mind no kids no utility L bonus not really an amazing spot to get $2,900 into the next round Sil them fours are plenty at least oh not anymore not worth it in my opinion Rob really not necessary trying to keep tabs on the economy but as we could see before the bomb went off a lot of the players there already had about 6K for the likes of Cole now that's closer to 10 a great start for the North America that yeah exactly robs really over cooking it right there and after such a heroic pistol round he's had a couple backto back which will humble him got to keep his uh mentality clean ah interesting approach that you've gone for here on the phase side they haven't pushed all in knowing the loss bonus max out into the next they've kind of hedged their bets so half investments from the three from the grave robs twist and carrian with a weapon of choice what's the maneuver here they're going to need a gimmick they're going to need a boost exactly we're going to see some the jumping MP9 Chad grenades do a little bit of damage towards robs but this is his best bet he'll have to jump over the wall hopefully get a on the jump up we'll see if he can pull it off here it's a highrisk maneuver doesn't usually work out it's going to be JT once again cracking things open towards the B bomb side robs does pull one back the Boost from the MP9 does at least get them one but the round is over it wasn't a full investment but still a very convincing round here for complexity and five already on the T side of overpass this is great at least if you're talking about a three mapa Grand Final and without the pistol this is five sequential tside rounds and JT with 12 kills yo in game leader getting a bit of a buff on the stage right now and we' know he's had some hit and miss performances throughout C some have been good some have been quite miserable but when you're having a call and hit those heades he's doing a very good job so rain once again the unenviable task trying is hold on to the the one rifle they have this B bomb side St to become a bit of an issue here complexity with full control four players surviving once again money starting to rack up for them I think we got five digits on a few players here that's going to be five rounds in a row Chad after going down two and zero here $1,000 on floppy $112,000 for H he can bring out that orb no problem if he wants to but I don't think they even needed at this point what's the point this pace the fact that they're able to pounce in towards the site really working in their favor and that awp for broki will finally come out so let's see if they want to go for an aggressive opening on the phase side oh it looks like rain and broi going to be just the two men responsible for containing this side of the map this is a essentially a default round from FaZe yeah and it's broky all the difference make he's actually only taged him through the rock I think so that flashbang stifling he's a bit of backup from rain here the absolute Master of the toilet position yeah right through the rock you hate to see that and the first frag will be coming in for floppy he's been an absolute in this tournament and another opening frag has been found for complexity oh they got so much time as well they can just go for a full execution and knowing the fa have to react he's pushing long and actually timing could work out for him JT has vacated position it will be that b execution coming through yeah a lot of information so at least they can hedge their Bets with broi you would think ling up for their util on the go smoked off for now but they want to go through this this has to be perfect from robs and carrian oh SI is coming look at that that's a lock down spray down robs with three Hower one and done and JT no Health in the 1v3 we talked about his clutches but not here not now and twist keeping the atmosphere high for phze clan they needed that one yeah very important but we do talk about FaZe getting a bit of a buff right this should be where they feel like home on this stage so still just trying to works in towards this ground finer but you talk about opening picks we saw floppy finding the opening exchange this time around I think they've so far got six out of the eight rounds of play thus far and that's on the T side they're doing a great job with these opening kicks the only thing I didn't like about that from complexity was 40 seconds left on the clock and they've opted to go through the smoke there full gray screen enabling robs to get that massive spray down there like Alex said exactly what fa Clan needed here they got a nice full by here the kits are out the UTI's there and Grim fast paac through the connector floppy looking to crack things open once again Fearless up towards Shore it's got he's done it once again but carrian takes him down and JT's gone too four members of FaZe on the B site they knew what was coming but Al with floppy's hard work maybe he can make something happen here oh cleared the smoke great adjustment but robs he trades howu he punishes it's a two on two miraculously and there's more to come more to come right here right now Grim caught off and there's a facee round starting to turn into death match out there that pace over towards B it's in your face they done that a couple of times from the complexity camp this is feeling like the first time it's been stalled completely eight players in one tiny portion of the map n smokes flashes Bloodshed molotovs well we said the pistol set the tone and it certainly has this B bomb side has been under a lot of scrutiny here another opening Kill from floppy but it wasn't enough the AA broke he stepping up there and Rain showing some fantastic form in the Grand Final here you can see what it means to twist he knows that's a massive round as FaZe will be posting their fourth round now 5 four overall three more to go and it will be the Tactical timeout for complexity bear in mind they had a ton of money here so they'll still have the five rifles all the utility they need that's still maybe they're slowing it down they're finding these opening picks but morale still looks pretty good over there very calm look like a bit of a chule out of just there which is good news you want to make sure you don't let it slip away mentally just yet this is just the first half and they've already done what I would say it's more than enough if you walk away with a 75 half against you I'd still be very happy this is map choice in mr15 ch you used to say five would be enough it's a serviceable half now we're playing mr12 this is more than enough they're comfortable at this stage one more would be ad dilic and we'll see if rain can continue to impress with his opening frag this time not Landing the shots here they're going to continue to push towards middle it's broi this time opening things up and a ton of damage inflicted towards JT really uncomfortable now for the remaining complexity members the damage so heavy onto JT as well that spray and nade combo leaves him with just 7 HP Ando he is searching despite the advantage they have it's well timed and finishes off JT nicely a Twan Advantage for face to tie this game up yeah he was barely walking almost slung down by that H from rain now they need another floppy incision he's done it once he's done it twice will there be Thrice angle found onto carrian that or gave him the little bit of info he needed to pull the trigger floppy and anticipating this rotation from that Rain Hole car flashed off dead to right we need another and Grim provides it but they're still low and with broky shot it puts it all onto Grim he's a sharp shooter the first is gorgeous needs a whole lot more using his util they want to swing out they do it twist with just three HP a fraction left of it unfortunate for Grim there look like the aliot with the H would have been a great way to finish that one off this is one of the players that you do definitely see the tilt start to creep in upon well there we go we tied things up 55 FAS are on their feet after a difficult series of rounds here the money is starting to run thin on the complexity side for the first time the Gil's are coming out CH but I'm not sure about you the Galil feels buffed in CSU it feels like it's getting the majority of the kills on the T side especially early on yeah that's the thing right those second rounds after the plan it's deadly let's see how far complexity can string this one out Roi another aggressive Le this time over towards the fountain position T stairs trained in and needs to be aware of that internal clock playground was given up you can see he needs to drop back and consider that but the key piece of this round is number eight robs lying in the upper bathroom given a lot of freedom from carrian he's that Lynch pin between the sides but oh a big fight coming Reigns way yeah big fight with the whole Squad JT how's your aim here oh it's perfect finds the insta dink there's robs for the rebuttal does he get away tucks in he knows they're coming willing to take these jewels against Robin Cole a double will do yeah nice positioning there from robs falling back to the defensive line gives him a fighting chance here in the three versus three now bear in mind the Firepower and utility was low here for complexity but they still got time on their side one minute on the clock it's Brokey in iconic position for the awp smoking off the bathrooms jumping for information he's got a lot on his plate right now but he's certainly capable of defending the a bomb site floppy just waiting for that smoke to go down see there's any sort of rotation coming from the connector they still have two smokes here they can smoke off Bank towards CT spawn as well Flash the bomb side Molotov the truck and we'll see if that comes through it's looking likely yeah car just blocked so calling the bluff off the sound Q all the information flowing this will free up the rotation point of twist he can join broy over towards the side they have no util to block but at least they'll have the pieces in the right place and a fast blank here come the smokes the execution phas Clan more than ready due to the information that caragan garnered here and twist is in a prime SW to mow them down should be fine with broki already connected the first shot it draws attention hz's unable to to find anything and only the one for El Le phas Take the Lead yeah Chad you're dead on there the fact that carrian took that calculated risk at that point he gets the information allows him to rotate another player back towards a they read the execution coming through and a player like twist AK-47 in hand on the a bomb side no problem whatsoever and the timing as well imagine if it was like 3 or 4 seconds later in that moment maybe they get in maybe the bomb goes down so great timing there from the ingame lead but complexity they're committed now the rest of the half will be all about four spies with that lost bonus up on their favor as weird as that sounds they will be able to flourish with these Gils time and time again and it's broky with a lightning fast opening Alish did not see that one coming keeping it Dynamic is broky 1337 indeed as there's another for the AA oh and he's not is he he wouldn't come on bro that's enough he really doesn't he's getting flashed in broke it way absolute insanity face C [Applause] [Music] [Music] seven [Music] counter terrorists [Music] [Music] win [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] back on drink coming [Music] [Applause] like [Music] [Applause] [Music] to [Applause] baby [Music] and [Music] oh Sydney are you having a good time tonight so a phas clan as they turn it around looks like complex had them on the ropes for a moment then they respond with some absolute heroics broky ending that half with some Insanity it was five in a row for complexity but a complete rebuttal from fazeclan giving five back in return they lead the half here 7 to five as they switch over to the T campaign bear in mind this is The Pick of complexity this pistol will mean absolutely everything we'll have a look at the phase by here very technical two smokes three flashes and p250s in hand as well they're waiting for the aggression here towards long and they might get it it's floppy and a Le a this has been a key for phase throughout the playoffs taking Pace out of CS2 yeah some Pace now though onto alious position the whole Squad can swing him he's running out of bullets it's up to Floppy to cover they're going to lose him both he takes one advantage phase ah it doesn't feel like enough does it complexity scrambling now doing their best to get back over towards the a bomb side but this is the thing the fight went so deep in picnic that there doesn't have to be a commitment from FaZe whatsoever all right JT what you go foro pressures on now still plenty of time in the clock still though two smokes available they're waiting for the CT reaction and JT needs information needs a hell of a shot as well does damage towards broy but the S comes through it's caragan that brings it into the four versus two now grim and huk what is the play what can you possibly do what is the remedy hog needs to find at least a couple of kills here good position and a better shot there takes down twist that's a start onto the bomb carrier no l onto the sharp shooter twist and there he goes this caran pistol round yeah he can say that again Grim he can still win this it looks improbable but this is the man who can deliver in these sort of situations flashed off though brilliant pistol there from FaZe playing the round as it comes waiting for the CD aggression to come through a perfect flashbang deploy towards long gives them two big frags at that point and the C's had no choice they had to Peak for information and carrian like you said this is his pistol takes down his rival in game leader and H props to close things out and it's going to be 8 to 5 now do we see the force SP here for complexity the CT side you've only got $1,900 it might not be worth it and they are going to take the full Eco here alian best with a P250 so I don't think we'll be seeing any Antics here this round no this is very on meta for as far as concerned we've seen this a few times like csgo we didn't see mp5s at all it was a bit of a meme gun rain's been using the MP5 and now broky bringing it out run number two Henry I'm just wondering if they've even set their mid- tier weapon selection yet or what's being left you know oh hold up we had to pick that yeah okay if the bizon comes out and with you maybe that's the case we haven't seen that just yet but the MP5 it can be deadly in the right hands and broi is having a great game 17 kills as we get into round number two of this second half he's actually helped himself to a lot of real estate here we're going to crack things open and bear in mind this is an ace stack as well so yeah the smoking not ideal but surely still absolutely fine the MP5 will strike and there we go bomb should be planted it's up to rain now to mow them all down towards connector the blender come on open the door say hi Oh no hello JT's fingertips poking through well if you're trying to pick the Lock Mate we're going to know you on the other side going for the Sam Fisher approach and there's another Hower nothing SMG gets himself a little extra cash and carrian will as well so now we have the awward situation you're up against three SMGs your money's tired you got $4,000 on average per player so what are you prioritizing here the helmet or the utility you're not going to have any diffuse kids here a very difficult round the complex to Des fingers poking through for JT and and welcome guest as rain sends him packing like we said he had to spray them down didn't give up any frags here whatsoever they found a ton of cash and a tactical timeout for complexity maybe 10 oh yeah might be the technical variety so we'll keep our mouth shut as far as some of the particulars are concerned you can see just having a couple of issues down the end but this is the moment where complexity need to dig deep and this is not because hey they're down four rounds no because you can expect the mentality starting to wander in a moment like this this is where a is very important in a big moment from him a multi- kill that could really set the tone and when you are looking at the scores on the doors it has really been JT with a lot of impact H has Nine Kills seven for a Le Grim with a six and well floppy's not in the server so we'll have to wait to report back on that but feels like they've been working on it overnight Alex they're back singing o ah I wanted some Johnny far but it might be a bit difficult to get that one going The Voice let me [Music] [Applause] understand now carrigan's having a great time he's one down here before with rain in the phase Jersey this is like an in-game leader dream coming up next you know you've got full control you can present an absolutely wild strategy here you've got SMGs pretty much across the board you can execute you can be frantic and chaotic going forward here as well complexity are a lot of trouble in this next round that's if they can sort these technical issues as well it's not an ideal time for it to come through just when you've got to put your heads together discuss the options coming through they got to sit there in silence right now and stew over the predicament they found themselves there well is is this carrian just starting to uh you know get the crowd a little bit wet for it and then as soon as we get back out of this uh technical timeout he makes them make even more noise and they go quick he used to do that a lot using the crowd to his own Advantage masking the charge but right now a reminder the players they cannot communicate maybe you can you know speak with your eyes SP way you can give them a wink a nod that's about all and a smile yeah but this is uh when you're a player and you're sitting there and you look up you're kind of taking it all in it really reminds you of the moment in case you've forgotten you're in a grand final and I think for some players they they deliberately try and keep their eyes on the monitor you I was talking to nerds about the way that he set up and talking to him he's saying when he has the monitor he Mak sure it's about eyin so that he doesn't see above it and see everybody behind it yeah I guess that makes sense I it's quite an intimidating Arena out there we were just in there chat ourselves and I can tell you I was getting probably a lot more of the brunt of it than you um every time I missed a shot didn't get a kill you can feel it you can feel everyone jering for you to fail and uh I I guess what you say fa are the fan favorites right now oh definitely so they uh got a whole lot of love throughout this playoffs run so far oh there's Justin as well making a nice little appearance yeah put a smile on everybody's face today s jazy walk out I'll do a little test let's find out Sydney let me hear it if you want complexity to lift the trophy oh well do you even need to check let's do it anyway and what about face clam all right pretty comprehensive result there it is looking good for FaZe I'm not going to lie to you bear in mind the pick up complexity here they're down 9 to five and it could have been a lot worse than that chat the fact they won that third round Eco Victory with the hero rifle uh that got them back in the game it could have been an absolute blood bath otherwise we're yet to see any of the complex players really Step Up floppy's had his opening moments but still we need to see someone shine brighter than ever looking at the scoreboard right now at the top it is JT which is great he's got 14 kills but that is not the name you want to be leading the way here in terms of the fragging department oh well JT's just put that chair back so this could be telling that we might have a moment or two more but definitely a time to chill out he's I want to say done more than enough in that fragging department as you were just prefacing but uh this is where we're on the CT side having to see how Z or come alive when we had a few of their games earlier in the tournament he was fantastic with the ADP on like ancient we had that multi for him on overpass as well but speaking of overpass basa played this map twice right they picked it up twice and they lost at once to Vitality the second was a victory sh and we've seen ways that they're trying to Define The Meta but let me tell you freeze time starting to trickle on down we are ready to get things well hold up I lied I lied I lied I lied sorry guys it was yeah we heard Alle in those interviews as well talking about how he kept getting to play the same Maps you know Anubis being a main stay for complexity at phas they immediately throw that spanner in the works taking it away yeah com in with that seven map pull but a quick plug and unplug plug right there from the league Ops seems to fix most things have you tried turning it on and off again that's that's usually the fix to be fair but uh it looks like we have got at least all five players on the Ser for complexity here bear in mind this this year for FaZe like they've had a wonderful couple of years but 2023 especially it hasn't been amazing for them this would only be their second title if they were to pick it up it was EPL at the start of the year which of course the Grand Slam locked in but since then it's been very disappointing by their standards it's been underwhelming they know as well they have not been performing at a level we anticipated this would be a great return to form the first CS2 Lan a statement Victory if they can pick this one up Ah that's a good noise that one does signal a tactical timeout so you're right okay we come to the conclusion of the tech into attack and the second call for complexity so far TC always smiling the coach's chance to confer with the team about how they want to approach this gun round yeah not going to be smiling if they lose it though 10 so dangerously close to that that magic number here in mr12 it does have to start so now this is going to be an interesting round it's what we call a bonus round traditionally you've managed to win the pistol you've had a very clean Second Round Here and Now complexity will have on average $4,400 meaning yeah you can get your M4 you can get your Kev you need to choose is it utility or helmet up against these SMGs which going to be Rockham sockum in the next round here and they have not got helmet on three players Chad this could be massive yeah how's it you can understand but grim and Al they've opted for util looks like it's a fast speed play Let's get it are they ready testing immediately a Phase Clan flash is good and so is the damage floppy under scrutiny rain finds the opening and it's jt1 needed to be more and it's up to Grim now he's got help in the form of a lead through the smoke great find onto broi okay this one's going to settle in b not committed but robs has got one back that's a problem now Al has such a power position but it's hog from the heavens Nails the or shot puts it all onto caragan has he got a clutch in him on this Grand final stage bomb retrieval half of the battle with the first a stunting shot onto the AA oh what a move from Al though did he mantle up on that sound bad position in the smoke cuz up and over finding that penetration as the sight was under scrutiny JT doing some damage sure but it was finished off oh the finances aren't good that was a lot of damage done on the bonus Henry they're going to be able to get a buy out sure complexity but there'll still be emissions as far as utility is concerned as well as armor hits as well twist is reading it well he could have got the AK-47 he UPS to the Mac 10 Again by virtue of the fact there's only four play there four players of our helmets I think we're going for the same STP once more it was close before you'll see if twist can crack things open again he's leading the way with the ma 10 good damage inflicted can't find the kill this time it's a fam mowing them down floppy returning to form here a five versus three JT will chime in this is looking much better and this Grand Final it's back on a clean sweep pretty much there for complexity huge hold from floppy yeah holding his nerve on that one and sending phase back to the drawing board you tried it twice this time no cigar you're going to have to try somethingone else I'm just surprised that they're going to do this on a full buy with AKs in hand like as you mentioned Henry twist coming through with the Mac 10 understandably so on the entry but Grim that is a roar you don't see too often and a massive round to shut phas down and send them to these pistols a chance to draw this just to a back of one round game if they don't falter to deagles yeah complexity backing this now be in mind this is an Eco barely even a half by they've got no ke on four players here robs they're going down it's the utility is absolutely destroying them at this point can blackx Steve got this round in the back yeah hit him with a Flash and a smoke next yeah if you can get the deco in the play oh and an or for good measure it's h connecting onto broi now this is housekeeping there you got all five alive dreamy for complexity a one round game and I think some of the keys is in the last two rounds the lack of casualties for complexity allowing them to build up a bit of a buffer on the CT side another one like that and they'll be sitting pretty but F will now have an opportunity to respond with rifles no brok awp available and I doubt we see another B rush so let's expect something a little bit more standard likely a default spread across the map but what tricks have robs and car caragan been cooking up yeah you see it looks like a 311 and this Molly out the gate seen a lot about this tournament yeah a lot of flubbed util doesn't just have to be the Flames very proactive here from Cole yeah and they're going to be ning off the door as well they are hunting for any sort ofation trying to stifle pH glan in their default here they' got full control of the B Lanes the connector as well and bear in mind fa don't have a whole lot to work with here sure they got four smokes but in terms of other utility there's barely anything here they're on the back foot they know they've been rumbled and the CTS are hunting around the map but look at how much space a Le has already this is or robs might find him oh yeah the timing here is insane this doesn't happen every day robs in a Lee robs is coming yeah I think it's going to be all good for robs here can't quite believe what he's seeing but now the information flows they've had that clear do you commit to the call G he's between Enemy Lines right now and there's C somehow gets his gun on in time that's unbelievable it was on a silver platter for grim and now four players completely how here yeah maybe he's got someone in him he's got the nade he's got the or maybe one from Al that's a good start NE a multi kill a team kill sure but a 1v2 for floppy needs a head shot robs the one to find it and it's phas up to the double digits first oh and damn Fortune with the timing there wasn't it if a was any later if he didn't even return to take that slack over towards a Al is the man who has all of the space all of the timing and likely all of the kills it was such a good maneuver as well they had so much control of the map there and it comes down to the absolute granular detail the fact that robs finds him after he slipped the NP he was priming for three or four kills out and it is robs to close things out as well great position for floppy he definitely was capable of closing in that two versus one but couldn't find the shot Grim's going to be kicking himself as well that carrian kill that's true I'm I'm not sure how that happened I can't believe carrian even hits the sh and response never mind yeah how has he done that it's a Specky one from carrian make no mistake but I'm sure Grim's going to be blaming himself and you got to get out of your head you got to get back into the round another one coming up next and FaZe are the ones who have actually taken taking the Tactical time out here so maybe just discussing hey how the hell did a get there because the money's low once again they're winning these rounds of one player surviving I think I saw a couple gills in the mix at this point as well so it's a difficult round on both Sid this is it this might even decide if F can going to close this one out right here right now if they can find the victory look at it two Gils make it three they do not have Firepower they've opted for the utility maybe some more setpiece mentality here H knows he has a step up he's going towards the connector But Here Comes broi aggressive of course up towards Shore but the first pick and he might just find it JT will he be inquisitive towards sha one more step he'll go down it's caragan finding the opening frag and do they commit they don't need to do they want to H gives broki a taste of his own medicine and it's more from huk stepping up on the big stage and El you're right is on hot pursuit of twist with that bomb perfect position again not ready for that one an easy one for North American Superstar and now up to rain in an impossible clutch they have the bomb what are you supposed to do has a window of time here if he wanted to try and backstab a Le but you can see very very worried about a player taking a heads up fight so he's gone the long way round to open up these angles but they fortified the bomb even more so two players sitting on it I don't know how you're even meant to have a looking if you rain I mean even if he had a smoke it wouldn't have gone incend might be something he can work with this point be take an opening kill the incendi lock of a choke poter maybe he can do something with it but speaking of incendi he's actually had one land at his front door here 30 seconds remaining he's got a flash to work as well but surely no chance in this stage here would be an absolute nightmare for complexity to give up even more than one kill and there's the first and should be traed out great positioning and it will be complexity closing it down to just one round difference here we go 10 to9 and the money is completely shattered for phze clan it should be a full Eco at this point recap how that one went down this is the HZ push the fact that he broke it and a second and this push from Al did seal the deal well this time he does get to be that nuisance so Redemption for him in a follow-up round that'll give confidence for these aggressive moves for El Le you'd hate to lose two in a row where you get caught by this weird timing and you're going aggressive that might cancel plans for the rest of the half oh no yeah it's more common than not these days yeah that's surprising to see oh and floppy just landed on the wheelbarrow you got to be careful when throwing yourself in towards the waters bear in mind it is up against a full Eco so as we always say Chad no harm no foul there should be no problem whatsoever going forward here they haven't got much more than a P250 and a desert eagle in the hands of rain here no Kevlar to work with and so they're just looking for a couple of kills if they get the bomb down somehow they'll be a victory in its own right but you can see very passive complexity not giving anything away at this point they've ascertained up against the pistols here and they're not going to give anything to work with here on the face side Le has grim covering his uh left side a couple of those deagle shots not not far off the mark But at least should be set up for the multi-kill Grim and a doing it stylishly spped into the USP and we will be looking at a 1010 score line that's just crazy to see a competitive game on the stage yeah these have felt few and far between FaZe absolutely destroying ANS 13 to zero this one complexity it is great to see this is a team who is showing Innovation they're definitely grasping CS2 sure some of their players like a little bit of a complaint about the game but clearly they've got their head screwed on right and they are focused for the event ahead yeah and aiming to lift North America's first imem trophy since imem Chicago 2019 you say North americ North americ that's kind of wild isn't it all right 4 years met Henry I do that was quite a while ago God damn that was a while I felt like a different like uh generation yeah time between DRS and for complexity I mean just to get their first IM title in CS you know not even CS2 CS CSG go certainly didn't go well maybe I should I shouldn't just say CS cuz of course we did have 1.6 1.6 they quite good at that yeah but CSG go and CS2 for sure right then another gun round approach with the smokes and set are trying to deny access towards the fountain and you can see they've got these novel plays here complexity ready for the CT side on overpass here lovely little boost for Al he's got full control of short you can see fa on the back for here they've been completely ruffled by these Alle pushes here they're very very careful going into round number 21 here want to make sure the CTS don't obliterate them at the start of the round in terms of positioning biggest note for me is nobody from FaZe worrying about a b push just currently used himself through connector and a so I guess they want to apply that large net over towards this sector of the map but it's very very quiet quiet no util no spamming no space and a lot of room with a on this boost again you can see them really trying to exploit the fact you can blow these smokes open toward connector two HS to allow Alise to maybe get an opening frag but no damage inflicted and now active once again the or confirms that Grim can push him towards the bathrooms and take the first kill of the round as well looking for the double gets the dink on broi but it won't be quite enough a four and four tenen he favors the tside here and they're looking to continue the push in towards a actually tell a lie it's all on him it's all on JT if he goes down the sight is open look at that three players spamming through and robs is the one to bring it home this is a wide open bomb site I say that perfect timing from the incendiary Al has bought himself just a couple of seconds to his heels in and now he's set up for potential success considering expecting a boost but it's robs loud about this now oh look at the damage robs has one HP he has the bomb but it doesn't matter cuz howzer left alone with the or it's not the weapon for the job spotted a glimpse of the receding robs I think he has to save Alex at this stage of the game the rounds have been tied sure they posted a few in a row here they've actually won five out of the last six but the money is tight H especially $800 they can buy into the next round but it will be phased just about getting it over the line there a team kill in the mix it's robs of 1 HP as well but they get the job done I mean we it looked like a dead round after JT's death but just a gave us a little bit more hope onto that one some damage short yeah and it was all about that repositioning as well like you said the incend down Landing to get a strong position towards sh he gets one and a half kills at that point if he gets a double kill there I dare say they can salvage the round but it wasn't quite enough it's FaZe now touching distance of picking up the first map complexity's pick of overpass and brok it doing great work there towards Grim well now this next round is it for complexity if they cannot respond and they lose everything unable to save uh let's call this one curtains for map number one because the finances as far as the loss bonus is concerned it's really nonexistent yeah they will get $1,900 into the next round and'll be map Point as well right you're dead on this pretty much decides the map they do have a decent buy as mentioned though they have the hok awp M4 is otherwise you can see the utility is not bad as well but it will be the final timeout bear in mind mr12 you get three they've all been burnt up now on the complexity side it's 10 to this stage a real swing round it decides absolutely everything especially on the side of complexity here they've been very impressive with their aggressive maneu is hunting for information but do they want to take that sort of risk here in such an important scenario 11 to 10 we're getting into what could be the deciding round ha has a decent spawn doesn't look like he's going to use it just be lipping out the standard protocol utility to slow the te's and his will land singing on rain still takes the space how's it you've got to be careful you're on your own yeah wants to puff up his chest with some of those early nades it is a lot riding on him right now the responsibility for that first letter of the alphabet is exclusively Hower that will change eventually Grim likely the float man smoked off on the bathroom side yeah is that enough pressure to force a rotation apparently not nonetheless alzer feels the pressure and now he will look at that Molly sticking around pulls the trigger no luck and half HP for him not far off on the pot shot yeah he isn't done just yet you can see he's being combative he knows he has to carry this round try and defend the a bombsite alone if possible he's gone down the 42 points of Health but not dissuaded from the angle hoping to hold them off but otherwise we got fan getting ready for the B execution here they'll leave rain in a prime position for a backstab here and they'll go for the contact play in towards B yeah contact indeed oh yeah one Molly to start it off a smoke for floppy he's wor wored about short now the bullets are fired pressure is applied three coming out of the monster side Reigns already found HZ the ORS gone but it's this test now for floppy and JT trying to hold onto their bomb hold on to the hopes of tying this game up only robs and carrian can disrupt further he misses his chance El Le shuts him down and carrian the last man to fall he'll give it a good go but complexity they force us the distance I think FaZe found himself in two Minds when rain found the kill up towards a they were already out monster and there maybe a slight bit of hesitation of hey should we drop back and head towards the other side but they were overc committed they couldn't get out of Dodge they looked for the fights they didn't secure them and that was it I think when floppy was kind of found out towards the barrels as well he extinguishes the smoke and they hoping he's going to swing he's going to give himself up but he just gave them nothing no one wanted to commit towards the bomb until that frag was found the rotations came through and sure hoo goes down the other side of the map but they know they can only go four towards B they start getting sprayed down and we go 11 11 FaZe are in a lot of trouble here now what a tense moment this is last timeout from FaZe also burnt so the six we get in regulation all done they are well I don't want to say playing for overtime but they didn't all in they did not shove they get 2400 as the Lost bonus into the next so this considered call from Neo in the timeout has allowed them to check through the finances read the advocus and decide we can give this a crack with a partial investment and the next round we go into a full by with the AKs complexity might be the first to reach 12 there's only two sets of C I'd call this more of an Eco you got a glock on car right a couple of deagles I I think this is a locked in round unless Alle oversteps the Mark here trying to work out what they're up against and it's robs to the desert eagle a little bit of damage there towards Grim he needs to be careful here and least great kill that was necessary he's also aware there's likely a whole lot more with that flashbang he'll hear the steps HZ needs to support him if he can't get away he's backing in safe such an X Factor think about the different positions that a w Whiplash has found himself aggressive towards a connector over towards B booster they are really using him of his star power that's JT in his 22 frag here what a showing what an absolute baller of a tournament he's had so far not known to be a frager over the years but this tournament he is proving otherwise fantastic work time and time again in JT he's got a few more kills on his plate available there's carag looking for the double and he delivers is there anything left for face here on the Eco he finds the AK-47 can't be happening complexity up against nothing more than a couple of pistols no way not like this wait wait the bombs in comp the bomb's in con El might find him and a huge release of the pressure valve as El has taken the bomb carrier down hold on carrian still hitting shots Kev carrian didn't have kevla here and he's on for four kills right now how they get how do you get it back through the smoke 20 seconds Al he knows what his job is is after a couple of seconds they won't even have time to plant the bomb big slows them down they'll take the opportunity to swing on through El hits the first no time in this one for twists and all of that hard work a good shot short but all of that hard work from garan it does not translate in two or 12 oh decent damage sure but as we go into the final round of play here they're going to have to buy 12 secure for complexity their map choice they are looking to pick up map number one against FaZe Clan their Aura on the stage right now now is starting to shake oh you're so right as well Alex that Lynch spin the bombing towards the connector as soon as it goes down all of kagan's efforts are nullified he was the player that entered around with Glock no armor he picks up three he did so much hard work at that point but it wasn't quite enough and Chad's dead on that Financial damage sure has a slight knocking effect floppy's got a Famas but overall it's the last round of Regulation here looking to close things out and they're aggressive they're playing to win this round and they actually continue that push as well to T spawn yeah that is really something something special out of Alle and JT with so much pressure on your shoulders the first map of a grand final you haven't been in this environment before with this much at stake and it's HZ tested he'll hit a shot he'll get away JT El is cooking too on that flank from the monster side he hasn't finished off his meal broky bleeding with the bomb JT fragging up a storm this in-game leader and complexity two kills away touching distance still room for eror is caran alone and complexity just need to bring him down one man he's gone and complexity have the lead this fairy tale it's not done yet one welcome to the Grand Final this is what it's all about right down to the wire it looked like pH were running away with this one but no it complexity showing the mental fortitude they take then my pick [Applause] 1311 hey future Pros we've looked at ways where the smokes are broken for info now let's look at the ways they are being used to find some action the most common being CTS breaking smokes to catch te's pushing into a sight Inferno CT smokes Mirage window smokes you name it in some cases we have seen them being used to initiate a PO as we see here with na'vi however these methods have seen limited success the most interesting has to be this twist play breaking a CT smoke to draw their attention and then Peak from another angle probably the most cerebral smoke breaking play so far I'm sure we will see many more cases like this in the future all right guys is it going to be complexity or phase complexity complexity complexity first of African to win tier one event for sure what about you complex face FX all right let's go face up baby oh my God face up up face up face go f yeah it seems like it's phas all the [Music] [Music] way do you think you know everything about csgo then stay alert and look out for the DHL drop quiz on the ESL

for you guys at home to be winners as well in our DHL drop now you guys know the drill put exclamation mark DHL drop followed by your answer A B C or D in the chat to be in the chance of winning some lovely prizes Cy of DHL the question on your screens right now which team played in the most I am Sydney grandf finals is it a going to be liquid is it B going to be astralis C SK gaming or D is it pH CL get your answers in the chat right now because we'll be recapping the correct answer at the end of the segment but gentlemen talk about a first match the beginning of this series yko this is exactly what I wanted to see delivered a close first map and complexity having the balls to close it out what a brawl what a slugfest it felt like death match as Chad pointed out uh during the game and again complexity keeps surprising us really in a way where they lose both pistols in this game and still have you know the composure still have the mental fortitude to stay in the game come back and then in the very end close it out yeah I look at the final round of the first halfer broky just went Fu mode to complexity right getting four kills through jumping out from the smoke and for me it felt like yeah that would be the moment where the game's kind of done the map's kind of done fa just stamping The Authority right there in the server but I go back to the final round in that game that push from complexity 121 you expect a few some of the younger teams to kind of play a little scared a little turtled up double play Push towards connector and when faer just trying to go in for the hit we had a player from short we had two players waiting there on the B bomb side and even a flank from Al so complexity we is watching this team grow right in front of us here in the server they did it again solid game plan solid execution JT leading by example you know they were playing on the CT side as well the aggression was all over the place fundamental for great minus the couple of flashes in the first half that permissed cost him the round overall this team that won just this map played like a like this match is a online group stage of an unimportant event not just the Grand Final in front of 7,000 people in Sydney here after the the whole you know blast they had to win and travel and everything and coming out from a lower bracket he's just amazing and I'm so happy to see it let's give JT his flowers in our Air Force aim high because yeah not only the brain behind this complexity Behemoth but also delivering in terms of the fragen department yeah for him for me JT was especially putting in the numbers on a t side I think he was he had like almost like 15 16 kills on a t side and even if you look at this entire tournament he I believe is the fourth highest rated tside player in IM Sydney and he's leading by example as well and fragging while calling the way he was I think it's just spectacular World from JT FaZe wanted to brawl and complex is like yeah we can duke duke it out with you not this is not a ring fight Freya this is a street brawl there is a definitely you know a a trend going on right now whichever map JT picks he plays good on it remember Anis more than a few times and I anent I believe is the second one and just they he he seems to find his timings he seems to find his like space to get the numbers right he gets the calls but he gets the numbers too which we all know are important when it comes to ig when he gets those it's additional impact to the game and you can easily win and that's why I love that you pointed out you know the final round of this merry map because we've seen those aggressive plays coming out right in games gone by versus b boom versus G2 as well really catching their opponents off guard yeah absolutely and just being proactive and playing to win instead of playing not to lose and we've seen so many Underdog teams fall into that trap but not complexity I think also for pH right I was a little bit surprised with how much Pace they were putting into the game in the second half um and I think what we say about them is sometimes it's a little bit messy they lack a little bit of discipline and I think that was the problem they were losing too many guns in rounds that were pretty much won right they would only have one two guys left alive in the end and that's why their economy was sort of in shambles in that second half well we're speaking a lot about the individuals so I think it is time to check in with our DHL [Music] MVP yes this is indeed your last chance your last opportunity to get your votes in for our DHL MVP of course we'll be awarding them a trophy and having a wi interview with him after this Grand Final has concluded first up on the docket it is the man JT of course we' got our eye on him not only for the calling but for the fragging El as well cassad we speak about him already lifting a trophy here in Sydney a imagine him doing it changing allegiances moving over to complexity and he's been putting up the numbers he might do so I he's not a stranger it's a success right he won the grand SL he want syney like you said in 2019 it's not really you know a strange place for him to be in front of a large crowd same as this guy as well that we saw on the screen robs one of our candidates too he was delivering decent numbers on this map at the end he just Fen enough broy we have to talk about him I'm pretty sure we're going to see y round number 12 this was Unholy BL yeah this is basically such a broky play right like you sometimes love to see it sometimes hate to see it this is one occasion where you love to see it just delivering with style I love what Prof tweeted out is like that one round is why you love him and hate him at the same time right love him for what he's capable of doing in the chaos hate him for even going for it and like making that play but yeah I think though for FaZe twist is a big name for me right he stepped it up in the playoffs he's their best player in the playoffs alongside robs really went missing especially on that t side for pH they needed him and broy who had an excellent CT side again not so much from him on the T side in that round where carrian on the Eco gets a lot done he goes into connector so he's holding the flank instead of maybe just going around through monster and t-spawn and joining his team he had the C4 baz might have stolen the game away in that round if it's room for him dropping the ball well I hope you guys have also had the opportunity to get your answers in for our DHL drop it's time to reveal which one was the correct answer of course it had to be D it had to be face can yeah going to a hell of a lot of the grand finals here in Sydney and now another one just behind us potentially a chance to be lifting their second trophy down under um hope is on the horizon because nuke awaits as our next map obviously the pick a phase uh Yenko we know they're very comfortable on this map they are absolutely comfortable but also we've been talking about complexity and how good they've been and creating game plans and executing them they have a lot of data on phas and how they like to play nuke you know yes nuke is strong for pH but they probably exhausted most of the things they came up with in the games played so far so interested to see how that Dynamic Works does carrian have an ay sleeve or his complexity being able to counter P his new I mean complexity are one foot through the door of creating history here and something I don't think anyone of us have expected perhaps but now they're going up against a FaZe with the backs against the wall and on a stage in a grand finals in front of a crowd like this and that's when FaZe are at their absolute best so it's not done yet for I don't know the thing is like we haven't seen FaZe being shook up in this event in playoffs like this right complex did a decent job on their map pick the half of the the work is done coming into nuke I don't they have anything to lose it's it's a bit of unknown what they're going to do simply because Yenko said there is no material right now pH is starting on the T side it's mr12 a pistol couple of gun rounds and then all of a sudden it's 48 and then you have to rely on the that second pistol to kind of get back into the game it's it doesn't look good for fa right now simply because complexity looks so calm and collected F they've only lost one final with this lineup That was in Copenhagen to heroic in 2022 I refuse to believe they're going the second one is going to be here to complexity I think FaZe bounces back on you we've already had some incredible plays going down this Grand Final but it's time to recap what you think the king clutch is of the entire tournament he finally has and he's clutched it this is not a CT he's in behind the enemy yet again he's a coming and he is full control until until sirron is here to try save the day snack no way I just grabbed the word for with Neil because I also got to talk to TC previously so Neo said that when it comes to the map picks they were like not 100% sure that it's going to be overpass they were preparing for this but they were saying okay it might be overpass it might be vertigo or it might be Inferno now when it comes to complexity it's way different because complexity were like yeah we're pretty much sure that they're going to ban Anubis and that's why they went for overpass now it's going to be nuke and it's the map pick of face which means there's a really high chance we're

joined by Henry G and sponge to bring you all the action from from Down Under and the action has delivered so far this Grand Final looks to be potentially three Maps throughout the playoffs we see nothing but two Z blowouts across the board this one right down to the wire 1311 as we move over to The Pick of phas Clan here now bear in mind complexity starting the CT side of nuke if they can find the pistol they can find that momentum there is a real chance they can close this out right here right now JT leading by example 24 kills in that first M posting a 1. 47 rating as well it's a Le not far behind him they've looked fantastic so far ladies and gentlemen Make Some Noise the second map nuke is underway fclan with three flashes a smoke and that elusive H grenade as well I wonder what they've got up their sleeve ooh yeah indeed keep your eyes on that one as they are going for a little AV on guard approach the smoke top main waterfalls through they can drop into the top site no one's ready no one's ready but Al is and Grim hits the double up just collaps it's a perfect counter it seemed like such a good idea we've seen that smoke time and time again it's very matter right now but maybe carrian gets the plan down here you take it uhoh you take it oh he's giving it up he's giv it up for nothing that right there thought he was going to get run down hoping to Pivot get a chance to plant again but denied and that is going to cost phas in a big way we know as well on the tside is getting the bomb down is absolutely everything those gills have been potent throughout tournament here in Sydney but what a defense toward theom it's Grim setting at the shooting gallery and delivering on all fronts he had a couple of awkward moments on overath but now firing on all cylinders flopping the night in the plant as well and a dilic star for complexity one0 and presumably has to be the Eco here for FaZe and indeed that's all they've got Glocks across the board a couple of flashes and the SMG is ready and waiting here Grim of the M4 patrolling towards squeaky oh they're going to pop on the top this should be quite easy the ma 10 for JT farming up but it's Rim he's got a double and all the rest will jump in for good measure but Yanko on the desk made a very apt point there is a lot of data available as far as phases nuke is concerned they've played it a bunch of times throughout am City they've shown a lot of the Playbook and that is something the complexity haven't this is their first nuke and they can sit there download Counterstrike come up with the ideas like that pistol we've seen them run with the waterfall smoke on top of m a couple of times or different variations of main smokes and then different strats that would follow so complexity right out the gates 20 and they're looking to to make it a 3 start with the how green that's a real good point Chad the fact he's got the allout so early they they won't have the Firepower to combat it but they do have the smokes great positioning from Al as hold out to bait him in as well first shot connects the awp strikes it's an early five versus four and he can peel off now it's a giving himself up and now self-preservation is the aim of the game he needs to get the hell out of there oh they let him out for free yeah and they let him into ramp descending was floppy decides it's not worth the fight with the man Advantage already and that's absolutely fine Ram is not bombsite it's a portal to upper and lower but you can allow the te's to have it especially with the man Advantage you got H up protecting the hell position floppy down towards lowerer there's not many options for phas they have ramp but not much else yeah limited option sure got some Sharp Shooters on both sides right now in this ground final oh I like this from complexity going to be taking M into their own hands here they'll make the next move two players encroaching towards that ramp from here here they can find robs in the corner call the round done but he seems to be very aware of this Prospect spots the first he'll get the first kill no problem Oh the second eludes him though and it will be the man Advantage maintain complexity oh brilliant reaction from broi catches a completely off guard and a miss shot from the Y now hz's revealed it fired off the shot's got the element of surprise a beautiful strike but that bond is denied and another required as broi gets it all on to JT only an MP9 to his name that bomb needs to go down it will do thanks to grian bomb hased finds the rifle swings open the doors and carrian secures the round for fazeclan after an early disadvantage that's quite the turnaround yeah precisely considering how that one started you thought they were in a bit of a tail spin but that power position from Rob sure only gets the one and they're done but good trade work available here for FaZe we'll catch that again in the Highlight package this pace from broy to immediately close down that distance and one of the things I think fa are great at is they're able to quickly close down space on nuke you think oh yeah they're strung out it's a bit of a default spread one minute there's three players in your face you're not ready for it so great job very difficult rounds here that awp was expensive and they're feeling the ramifications of it now just a P250 for horer Al though good position towards SEC they still have firm control of the outside area and it's carrian exploring the option the first smoke goes down to him to get towards T red and they follow it up of a wall of smokes as well at P250 though Henry this is what the key for this round is for complexity yeah they want H to take the aggro just present himself a few shots through the smoke and hopefully Al can swing there's the argro taken double kill on a blate he can't deliver oh my God it's way through the smoke finds a four versus three the reaction from floppy is everything here can't connect the dots and surely this round is done yeah especially now The Jig Is up on the push through Lobby they're both there both spotted incendiary down delays the rotation they can't chase that bomb Oh this is drops his regular home tucked in towards the ram bomb has been surely they just have to save the miserable option of the two yeah there's nothing available yeah I know it's not what you love to see but it is the correct maneuver for complexity here will be 22 for phas the double kill if that comes through it was everything a Le only picks have won there it was perfectly set up as well like you said she had a prime position the aggro taken by H there they were lined up for him if he gets both the kills at this moment call it down but rain through the smoke I have no idea how he gets it so cleanly but it's absolutely everything nice reaction from floppy but didn't have the weapon for the job that was like a transfer from R he was like spamming towards hell and just dragged it into a Le wow goes off and nobody with it starting to understand the radius is a little bit more after a week's worth of play this should be the first tactical time and now if you ask me if your complexity this point you've saved two rifles money is a real concern going forward and get into round number five here it can't be the buy it just has to be what can we do with these two rifles it's traditional to see teams go well maybe not traditional but it's definitely one of the meta moves to get that boost behind the blue box over toward Warehouse see if you can find pick and it is going to be the Eco otherwise so they'll save two rifles one of which is an AK as well but going for the I'd be asking for it no just going to stand and deliver his JT the highest rated player of overpass now put to task with Grim's help a great grenade isn't it oh from bad to worse yeah and if this is a sign of rain's form we know how much he likes to dominate that yard position on the CT side he's doing it on the T right now but could be a sign of things to come he's in the zone show us this one right that one down didn't quite work we'll leave that one in the notebook that one out r that one out you can throw that look for some other nades but now it looks like it's not a problem rain continues to dominate the outside area that's his second frag of the round the rifle has been removed the Grim is still here but Al CAU a difficult timing as he Vols up towards the Hub alsoo trying to recover the pistol but Grim still has a fight J there does he ever if he gets the third this round is back on two versus one now and he can't quite find the fourth but great shooting coming in from Grim I think the shake of twist head there says it all from 0 to 100 great shooting for grim that's going to be a confidence booster yeah man looked so mechanical well complexity know what it feels like to start behind in the map right that's the same way that overpass started they had to have some massive performances to try and turn the ship it was FaZe bouncing back late in that first half and then a back and forth game all the way down to the wire those kills still have a knock on effect here it keeps face clam very modest here Sur they have a 3-2 lead but complexity back on the by there will not be an awp in play only one kid as well and he just been spotted rumbled in his borrowing into secret early and robs is trying a bit of a pacy one here waiting for the flashbang staring at his mini map and H didn't quite get that one right how's I can see him it's a free frag for robs traded good from JT they're down the B managed to slink down that was a distraction it was all a distraction aruse the bomb though covered by floppy the awareness an all time high yeah he's a great round player he's as well and at least he gives the information away so rain gets the kill but it's still a three versus one they know the bomb's down towards lower some damage inflicted as well they do not have to force the issue here for the plant at the very least rain looking for kills you can see he's desperate he knows he can't just plant the bomb cleanly and clean it is for Cole important response and three bodies means that there'll be no issues for them going into the follow-up by so important round and this is what we continue to want to see in this Grand Final and this is when those three kills from Grim in the round previous have a real knock on effect now especially with no plant coming in cury a floppy great maneuver down towards they weren't expecting it were you could see both of them getting caught off guard that is massive from the flops so what kind of buy we got coming up next here there will be AKs and there will be probably Gils in the mix as well and you can see an a of brok here it's a mixed bag of Firepower here as you see El looking to continue the frags outside back down towards seet this time yeah you'd think so right but he's been there time and time again they'll definitely be aware of the prosp but this is the same approach ma attempted they had frozen trying to cross more often than not and they also had to deal with squeaky because robs loves to make those Maneuvers if complexity can have evolved the game plan of ma maybe they're already a step ahead walking in hug wide solid connection equalized but only for a second it's broke his or catches and punishes pivot required out of complexity now where house lost and oh we saw a bit of leg there floppy Brave to go for the fight yeah knowing there's an Orin play as well that's very brave to say the very least it's caragan the only player gone down for phaser got a minute on the clock here as well complexity on the back foot and nuke is a difficult map to respond and find territory as Grim does fall that is important robs does have space towards ramp if they just hold this vent rotation they should be able to Walt it and get the bomb down but I don't think they're awes of anybody's in the sight you can see them diligent on all the clears worried about the corners there Lobby space taken but it's all happening on the lower deck complexity wrong place diligent clear doesn't want to be caught off guard can't quite believe they've got it so far away this kill will decide the round if robs gets at least one making it a double the round is over fantastic positioning once again and he looks to find the third as well it's floppy trying to get the Kill from the hell position and he'll get it but there's no way he can win the round he'll fall back and head towards CD spawn bro is already hunting run up secret already seems like he has a good idea that floppy is considering this save but he's been able to high tail it and I think also they're worried about that bomb radius themselves so just making sure they've gotten the hell out of Dodge I don't think the world has quite ever experienced that before guys chanting that at a save yeah it's what we're feeling and that's why you're safe for the cash for the Mulla oh rain is just laser beaming with anything at the moment he is looking red hot he hasn't really missed a beat so far towards that outside area and Al once again getting baited into towards the seet position he times it well but rain just one step ahead of the curve they go four to three a fantastic TCI campaign floppy he saves the M4 but they can't justify any other investment so he'll have to go absolutely massive here they' complexity have a chance of stealing this round away Al there's an eagle outside takes minimal damage from the grenade and he undetected for now X teammates should be head-to-head in the server on that one twist goes looking it's actually robs with a spot of aggression from the ramp push and he's handled it so well melting him composed as two test him and he leaves with two scalps and full HP maybe oh no maybe not Hower thought he had the jump on him but it's a third added to the tally and one by one they walk into the cross head that is a clean one for phze up to five yeah worst case scenario with that previous round lost for complexity win one lose one knowing the economy the way the finances at so it is going to sting it's the CT washing machine at the moment we're still learning and developing what this mr12 meta is really going to consist of but the CTS we know kind of get the rough end of things absolutely like we've seen one huk awp that's because they had such a strong start though they managed to pick up the first couple of rounds third round hold aw BP I'm not sure be able to see that again Chad it's going to be a difficult recovery of this half now five rounds already great showing from fael here after losing the pistol bear in mind as well they were two- Z down and only given up one round since they're looking very comfortable and it will be the first tactical timeout for complexity they've got the or for H he's been using a lot of these scope weapons to mix effect but it's normally the r does most of damage here we'll see if he can get anything done with the org and in terms of utility they've got the absolute Bare Bones on the North American side here the smokes a couple of HS to kind of blow up those wall of smokes towards outside and uh we'll see if they can recover here FaZe Clan have got a lot to work with money starting to build and they've already got enough rounds in this first half to be honest with you we'll see if complexity can answer back faser really good in the mid round so for complexity you're either going to have to stop them before the round gets out of control or your responses will have to be pitcher perfect SP are looking masterful at the moment as far as nuke T side is concerned yeah yeah individually as well sh yeah it's only twist that's missing from the re of you so far he had a very quiet over pass one and five right now but still plenty of Counter Strike to be played if he comes online God help complexity he's had a fantastic showing in the tournament generally speaking but now deploying the smoke from [Applause] t-spawn leash needs one and nearly the second and last bullet on the Noe rain's gone Rob shut down the remaining members of phas they heading to floppy's domain but he's ready and all guns are blazing takes down the or of broi yeah that will do though one and done with this sort of advantage that's absolutely fine for floppy he know where twist is at this point and he has no utility he's got the bomb Shore plenty of time the best he can hope for is some Financial damage here yeah this would be an insane misplay from complexity to allow twist back into the round yeah he shouldn't be looking for anything more than maybe one kill the CTS don't need to hunt this whatsoever let him save his AK you know their money is absolutely fine on the T side well this is where the objective changes though for twist his money with the L bonus coming through he he could buy again so if I'm carrian I'm in two minds Mr Vulcan how much magic do you have for us another kill would be great just soften up the CT economy even more so it's true even one would be pretty disastrous complexity here he's going to call it what was he 10 seconds though there's the kill can't plan there's another they've lost two kills two Reby forced by twist oh after time but not a problem he has 4.1k and he found two kills so you'll take it absolutely he can still get the AK the armor basic utility as well now the CT is going to be struggling they're averaging around three and 1,000 per player that's a hollow victory of a round it's a four versus one like I said they didn't have to even play that round they basically just needed to stop the plant and that was it the fact the twist gets to there it's absolutely massive it sets a phase going forward they pick up this next round the probably pick up the remainder of this half Roki had a lot to say there normally a man in interviews a few words but in the server one of the most commanding as far as ingame com so what is he looking for he wants to go shop and out yard floppy on the MP9 here you can see those ramifications those previous kills coming through already and Le has been strong outside but a lot of pressure here with the utility Smoke's being deployed but he still has a gap it's broky on the or looking for the first pick flashbang deployed El Le with another spray gets the first and needs to try and stay alive here yeah he's baiting out the shots he knows the ORS posted on him catches one through the box lives on N looks good combined with the or it could be the end of broi but look at that robs rain and caragan connect on the re aggress nice aggression from Le has actually they managed to equalize it drops into the sight low HP El Le dead and only hzu left 14 HP and a USP not the weapon for the job that is a captain's round right there from carrian in through the main smoke nobody even knew it was possible that's how we saw stereo kills all across the map and he gets his way in that is huge from Finn we might catch it here in the replay but he was able to sneak in through main during the madness you see that kill onto grip there's no way Grim was ready for that massive stuff terrorist win and that could be the round that breaks complexities back we knew the money was thin before a great effort to bring that round back to life and now desperation starting to come through the Nova shotgun in the hands of the in-game leader JT aggressive of course towards outside nice grenades to be fair from Cole they do significant damage towards rain but the molotov will take care of that shotgun robs will find a great shot towards floppy ramp is wide open once again and the CT is in a real real rough spot right now ah I will say it's such a luxury to have robs on the team who's either searching squeaky ramp or Hut Lobby is traditionally not the point of activity right JT sure he'll grab that 9 HP not a whole lot more for the South African to pick up but having robs just look I know it was against an Eco right and that's where everybody gets a little bit more confident indeed but we've seen it in the gun round so robs has just stayed a nuisance and traditionally painted with this brush of this passive lurker well he's been more than a heads up throughout IM Sydney yeah I mean with this full clear call they'll know where the bomb's going but they can't really do much about it this out out y covered by robs drops down and this round looks like a seventh imminent a guarantee for FaZe Clan well if F he can get his call I'm sure you will take it and they've had some good heads up rounds with the players getting multi- kills Grim on 11 Al on 10 and those two I didn't think we wouldd ever see a partnership after their relationship in liquid so it is great to see that they can get along here and form this Union on Cole because those two with floppy that becomes a very very scary rifling Trio oh it's going to have to be at absolutely everything going forward bear in mind they won the pistol they a two St there's only been two followup rounds since then phas have looked pretty comfortable short has been moments where complexity found a bit of Magic the multif frags coming through but they hav not been able to close out those rounds it's a Le who can go hunting to see if he can find a rifle here but the Bomb Blast will probably take him down at this stage hoping to take someone down with him but he's going to get blown up unfortunately for him and down he goes so it's JT to save the AK-47 he started with an over shotgun the fact he's got an AK right yeah we'll take that all day long so 7 to four now final round Al will have the AK-47 in hand but it's broi robs are looking incredibly deadly here on nuke yeah when FaZe get into this level they hit this stride Dupri watching it the other day talked about it saying when they are shooting this hard you just have to find a way to shoot harder the only way for Co they got the m4s back out so many possibilities presented with ph's openers Grim under a lot of trouble yeah this is the Rob special out into main so much space they have no idea robs Behind Enemy Lin the catches him that's a big one for Cole more available if Grim dares he has to trifle with twists they can slow it right down though oh the bomb's already gone down was lower they they can speed it right up forget everything I just said that's an amazing PL and rain looking to move them down towards the lobby round should be confirmed here they have got no idea what's going on in this round yeah it's still awkward down the vents coming up ramp that's their main Port of Call into the site carrian Decon doors open for him he has to disrupt this pursuit of the diffuse oh and the numbers they're running out of players complexity need kills at least a bodyguard the M could seal the deal but they have to get it down on the diffuse now Brokey can't do anything but in the flame and there it is the clutch and Fa leave the heart with eight what a beautiful round of Counter [Applause] [Music] Strike [Music] [Music] [Music] you [Music] [Music] [Music] why [Music] all [Music] right [Music] [Music] such oh you that [Applause] [Music] [Music] way [Music] [Music] an explosive nuke for short first half for phase eight as a Molotov a heroic Molotov thrown by twists seals the deal and a heavy heavy lead and a heavy head for complexity I can't even believe the bomb went down how did that even happen what an absolutely chaotic finish in the first half eight rounds on the tside campaign it's phas looking destined to take it sort of third map for the first time in the playoffs which will be ancient if required as we move things over it's complexity now on the tside p250s in hand and just a single flashbang here so nothing too technical they're looking for these opening Frags goes without saying they need this but it would be both pistols in Nuke if complexity can find this and that's a great start for Al exactly what the doctor ordered to remedy this nuke Grims hit onew this onew punch of North American talent they've hit all the shots necessary carrian the next to fall and it puts it all onto broy five still alive for complexity yeah well broy at this point if he can find a couple of kills maybe that's something waiting for his opportunity stri but this the Jules might find a double kill here surely he does no more but he does get himself $600 I suppose towards the end yeah but you say the Julie and then you think he has 30 bullets and he doesn't have to reload and there's three players stff to come in his direction broy will only find two great shot from and brim as well a cops are goose for his troubles but well handled and even a few extra bullets into the body I don't mind that from Al at all showing a little bit of attitude as FaZe we don't see this every day of the week especially not in mr12 on new you very rarely see it but I love it to be honest with you the c z of twist especially has had some very impressive moments in the tournament especially towards our H position and it's rain he's been deadly so far with this desert eagle looking to open things up and complexity lying in weight on the other side the first shot strike it's JT to find the first kill but carrian not far behind that was really big frag from carrian it reveals the Eagles are in play is that CZ and yeah the damage he's done so many low softened up for the deagles complexity not clearing their cor as hu does finish off broky but from behind robs will find one and only two HP has carrian really got the deagle head shot in him it's captain on Captain oh my a huge Advantage for JT here he controls the pace of this round but where is that bomb it's down in towards the Hut I believe waiting for car to make the next move at this point and Carri he's still got the desert EV now there's the Gil he's coming is this another clutch for JT saves him from a red face there that could have been it they went towards up up there's upgraded pistols the care BL it's always going to be difficult to get by them but still complexity get the job done the financial ramification is not that large because bear in mind the full Eco up next presumably there is the option I suppose you face to force by again but I would not recommend with this sort of lead they have right now well uh Henry I don't know about the force byy but how about a half by MP9 C shotgun complexity are you ready for this oh my okay oh my all right yeah you're right this going actually be quite deadly we're going to see rain once again trying to find the heads of those Desert Eagles double kill for floppy and there's quad in total it's just going to be broky with the shotgun so the half by bigger investment yeah bigger Investments than the previous and even EAS iier for complexity walk over and when you take a look at the scores on the doors it is about to read 8 to7 just a one round game and this Plucky Underdog of complexity they want to get things done in two I think we all had plans for that third of ancient just around the corner yeah but this next gun round will be pivotal if complexity pick up the first gun round of this second half not only are the scores level but they're the ones dictating the tone and they're the ones who already have the lead FaZe will be feeling the heat so FaZe will get $22,900 into the next round broi didn't spend as much cash and with that shotgun kill another $900 and an AK-47 snatched away if you can save that weapon will be absolutely massive as surely complexity won't allow that to happen now Catch Me If You Can they have to get away from this bomb radius how's broky going to Fair tucked in all the way back secret and he's going to lose the loot that's a shame but still it guarantees an awp that one kill alone with the short shotgun with no Kevlar it means he absolutely has the sniper going forward they're going to need it as well one round the difference now as we go 8 to 7 but Al is showing up in this Grand Final and he's won a trophy in Sydney before that run that intert grand slam that legendary liquid roster he had a teammate and that teammate was twist who is currently a little bit of a noshow he can really step it up on this CT side he might have all they need to get map two done oh here's broi we said he'll bring out the awp and it's rain aggressive of course for good reason a double dink comes through look at this pace I love it h throws caution to the wind the rest of his team nowhere near him a oneman mission they've got no idea robs is robs they got no idea this is huge this is a dream and just about gets it done Main's smoke phze needs something a no scope attempt to push through the smoke and it looks like 88 There's Something About That Heaven position when you have a guaranteed frag it can all fall apart very quickly he CS correct he finds the kill surely the round is over it's a four versus two now broi was in the Ben SP mind of the awp took a pot shot if it connects the rounds back on but was a one in a million shot doesn't work out for him but it's the sheer pace of complexity they've been using in these rounds they did it on the pistol round just how they want to spring into action going to force their way around towards this hell and heaven space and robs will punish howzer he didn't like how that one went down but it will be 88 and this really is complexity surging forward and I just can't quite believe the type of Counter-Strike led by JT South African representation we've never had anything like this before out of the region 100% terrorists win he's making history just by being on this Grand final stage yeah top Fragger in that first map as well 24 kills in a very close game against one of the world best so note that kill el kills rain and HZ knows hzu knows rain's dead on yard I'm going to take some space and what space did he take all the way up to heaven no one ready for him and yeah I understand this one from Neo yeah Shell Shocked just trying to piece this one together we've got a leaky boat let's plug these holes that cannot happen again but now they have to consider the opportunity that they might want to spring into action in similar fashion so do you go heavier towards yard do you go more passive towards yard do you try and play this awp of broy towards CT spawn or heaven and if that happens he's removed from the rounds I I think bro is going to get stuck in here I think he goes through an aggressive play towards ramp like he's been spotted outside I feel like he knows he's team m is into his own hands I'm interested to see what he brings to the table here but it's a pivotal round a chance of complexity to take the lead here looking to close this series out in two if possible broi not going towards outside here it's towards heaven to kick things off typical top util Molly on The Hut from the T side and clearing that one [Music] out they want to go they actually need the smoke looking for robs at least trying to apply some pressure well at least make sure he doesn't get up to those aggressive H remember po Nexus yes robs has been timing some nice smoke pushes yeah and they've leashed him so by doing that it's like okay there's no ramp aggression we don't have to worry about losing this Lobby space now we can reroute regroup and set up the execute as land I love this from complexity thinking on the job yeah they've been innovators and it's been rewarded went into [Applause] CS2 so three smokes expended twists here good flashbang as well doesn't commit to the swing bear in mind a few CT players of our helmets here as well thaty though he's right up against him he spotted a little leg on the jiggle he knows Grim's coming he Nails the first shot in defense of the py can't hit the flick need a big one out of twist the first is great humbled now and up to R the dink is in and it's all good in the Face Clan Hood Rob's response time impeccable they had forced the rotation the three smokes towards yard it makes you really think it's going to be the play outside through the smokes maybe down secret but as the top pop late and broy heads up understanding if they do take the yard space we need to push lobby as phas twist gets one Shore but it's all robs up the ladder not looking his way easiest kills he'll like but the most important is Phase draw back that one round lead they need consecutive here Henry one and done is not enough this is a chance to take control of the game once again you can see JT on the Gil the same smokes aoid outside much more Pace behind them at this point it's rain who's been impeccable towards area it's a Le though 17 kills in the bag an opening frag to find the five on four broke he's out of position he can do nothing behind this wall of smokes now we set up twist with the flashbang good damage but not quite enough they have to rotate down toward heard that Floy heard that absolutely heard that re smoke he knows there's another top site still that smoke resets the round good work from carrian allows him to rotate assess the situation broi can look for The Retreat towards secret as well but he'd expect it the fact that Secret's been blocked where do you go complexity have to come back up or they have to sit and wait yeah all opportunity presents itself and a clean one from broi good adjustment repositions now and the 60sec mark no hurry here for complexity but I say that they are walking into carag for the fight he's investigating and deleted there's no quick rotation they can get on to B there's no fast rotation point for FaZe at Le might even hear this yeah he knows and he's got such a power position for he's got no Lobby they've got everything covered apart from that ramp clears him a fantastic find even from a Le eventually the bomb's gone out of their grassp twist if he gets this one no JT denies it's up to robs in the clutch again h's not looking con surely win that one flying up the ladder gave it a good go but lacking consecutive rounds this is miserable scenes now for FaZe this is a horrible place to be that CT side economy if they're going to make a buy happen we're talking fames in the mix you got to be careful with this sure you can get the resales but take a time out this is the opener from Al catching rain backpedaling through the smoke the impact now he is the Talisman for North American Counter Strike the Difference Maker a he was there for liquid he's now here for complexity these rounds are getting scrappier and scrappier as time goes by it's complexity picking that one up a is fired up 99 tactical timeout looking down the barrel of a two deficit Phase Clan need to work out their next maneuver here let's CT side finances are not ideal it looks to be a half by here we've got an M4 for rain he goes to the hero rifle 57 CZ Scout has complexly hum for double digits here they changed their mind Henry I watched them Buy in the first moment of the timeout they had fames and m4s and then they got called off oh oh my God broy here's him going down about a fight and he takes down a as well providing open after opening this time it's an opening death Roi he's in the right place sticks around in the flame doesn't find too much Rob's hiding Bing his time floppy looking for it pressure onto broi fires his shot robs will activate for one advantage phase still and only ramp to Bose for Cole yeah this is actually looking quite promising now this T side of it got one smoke remaining here they have ramper him but but there's no rotation from phase lower yet they're worried about going down this vent they haven't taken the space the vent's not broken sure but traditionally there's a lurk towards squeaky so they have to clear this out that's buying a lot of time rotation to come down and it will be well signified that this lower side should be the hit Deon smoked off they're being quite apprehensive Chad here and that's going to be broie another Scrappy interaction here but it will be H coming out on top 45 seconds still a lot of round to be played out here rain rotates down towards lower but in the vents they go once again do they go back in towards the upper bomb so rain got O's number huge kill and he'll maintain the ad Vantage oh sweaty palms for these two now locked in and twist the element of surprise they're looking for rain but they find twists and trouble what do you do JT nothing with carrian one side everything boxing him in and it's a Face Clan round absolutely insane scenes and you start that one with the broky flick of the wrist a bit of a wrist breaker indeed and maybe the back of complexity to follow oh wow yeah just when it was looking t analizing close to the 2 and0 broi injects hope and life with that one yeah fantastic work and it was then the MP9 towards the ramp and then this Kill by kill complexity getting picked off caran to close things out there and absolutely massive ground for them to pick up here their finances back on track and they take the lead once again and Chad it's a full Eco here precisely more impact from Neo's timeout but they called it off it was a half investment they win the round and now caller on eco this should be a walk in the park the oron loads a Miss shot from broi hang on they will not find robs despite the Damage Done he's still hitting every shot he takes and one from hak shorta but FaZe 11 Henry think about the mental you had them on half by you've done all the hard work you're in a massive rifle round and you lose to a scout and pistols 1 and four and now you're in the Dirt 11 to9 fa surging forward TC on the timeout they need a miracle call they certainly do this is backs against the wall now and it's going to be something fast CH I can tell you that right now they've got two Mac 10s three AK-47s we haven't seen many upper rushes today but I've got a a horrible feeling that's what's going to be presented next the hell Mary throw caution to the win gets stuck in I feel that that's going to have to be the play here JT with the SMG floppy with the second and is now FaZe hunting for map points on their pick here the third map ancient looking more and more likely as time goes by 14 seconds we're back in the action I I feel like there has to be an upper Rush with the Firepower they lack there's not many other options for them oh this would be an uppercut one way to announce their presence one way to show that they aren't done they're mentally not out of it yet floppy's got the hiy I'm sure that's destined for the door has to be the upper Rush it's all we can really think would be worthwhile here and in we go boys deep breath for floppy be caran he got caught pulling out the nade and now pun complexity they found it they found the round didn't have all the pennies it all comes down to then C with a grenade in the hand didn't flash was late Henry the flash was late floppy came out before the flashes he was so ahead of the play I don't know if that was the call but floppy the aggression the Mac 10 the moment they needed and back and forth We Go Again check it out floppy coming through the flash isn't even in play yet you sure it's in the kill feed but he was ahead of it oh man as well I'm not going to lie when I saw the player cams on complexity I thought this was curtains I thought nuke was phases for the taking coming into this one and with five alive they take almost all of it away broky off hiding out and will come through and we lost Grim on rude there but that's absolutely fine find double digits himself close the gap down to one round again complexity back online it was a brave call to make out of the timeout there TC decided they go for that upper Rush the set piece comes through and floppy decimates carrian in the corner I want to ask the question do you have the balls to do it again they have just called their last tactical timeout of Regulation and Neo it's been pretty good with conversion off of the back of these calls let's see if he can do it again the pressure is really turned up a notch here phze the loss bonus 2400 for them going into the next it is in their favor there's residual cash for quite a few members broki with 1.9 R and twist with 1.5 carrian erupts a little bit more far off the mark they give up 11 they might have to half by again to defend against 12 this one's going the distance here we go ladies and gentlemen Make Some Noise this Grand Final is delivering on all fronts second map coming to a close it's one round in it and broke it is full set once again down the V opening kill found but still the top site under scrutiny there a good hold from twist needing that one broke key he's done it again multi- kill Close Quarters combat [Applause] oring turned out they did have the balls to call it again but phases just a little bit bigger that'll be it call it 12 one more now for phase map three five kills away record it Chad did they have the minerals to go with that upper Rush once again they gave it a go but broi ready and waiting he's getting everything done for them carrying through the second map could be the final round of play 12 to 10 no choice but to fully invest here complex the enter the round with two gs a tech 9 and a couple of AK-47 and barely any utility most of it deployed already is this where it comes crashing down for the North Americans the Aussies w three but a he disagrees a good opening taking down rain Rox is already there a mix up at the setup perhaps he can catch them off guard silent now quick smart down and a Brokey frag again impact from the AA yeah he's absolutely everywhere playing a spectacular g a magificent shot from grian how has he hit that drive by broy says bye-bye to complexity's hopes unless tzar and Grim with this bomb going down uncontested they can play this post plant between the two of them setup has to be perfect face of so many nades smokes m to's kits the kit and Kaboodle to take us to a third map in this Grand Final Grim if he could just find one and he exchange towards hz's position Grim needs to find them all now it's all on his shoulders and he shut down as face take us the distance we need three to separate these [Applause] two [Applause] w [Music] oh the Australian Outback a beautiful place a vast expanse covering More than 70% of the continent and it's home to some pretty gnarly creatures too scorpions it'll sting you thing goes that'll stalk you and also one of the most adorable creatures in the Down Under animal King Kingdom the r too [ __ ] cute these guys generally look pretty chill and they're friendly and sociable they also spend a lot of their time simply hopping around don't be fooled though this guy packs a walloping although not always in their Peak aggressive form he mess with his pack and he'll [ __ ] you right up we all remember what happened to liquid this is the Australian brown snake highly venomous one of the most toxic in the entire world he's not going to come to you you'll find him lurking around the extremities and inside of these pesky crevices but if you do ever enter his Turf he's going to become highly territorial don't be fooled by his size he can do a lot of damage one sting can be lethal look you can see he's getting agitated again he's getting all [ __ ] annoyed and [Music] stuff don't worry I know how to handle this magnificent beast and he knows I mean him no harm settle down sweetheart save all that aggression for the [Music] [Music] server our prayers finally answered as at last we get a third map in this Arena phase wrapping up their pick of nuke 13 to 10 with robs and broi Standing Tall on this home ground an absolute barar of match up I cannot wait Blair to be diving into ancient this is is a grand final this is a grand final I'm so happy we're finally seeing a banger of a game here back and forth we go and this was just some I would say sloppy but just messy and fast-paced and also a lot of cool ideas coming in we can just jump on in you know the first I think the final round of the first half as well quintessential phase right just chaos being created and someone coming out on top I think it was round number 12 you going probably played it as well real quickly here and just the way fa are trying to create chaos and catching complexity off guard the first half had fa written all over it despite losing the pistol yeah round 12 let's bring it up cuz it was crazy it was chaotic as you AB said a quintessential phase fashion to be closing at the South we can get round 12 up to show the viewers at home here we go uh what's going down here I mean you have the smoke from MINI I feel like a bit of a mistake here from robs pushing on out but what's happening is the bomb gets planted lower bro is all by Lonesome and he just plants the bomb and it comes down to a 4 V3 trades are back and forth and twist he loves in a mly and from Beyond the graves seals the round away from complexity that's phing n nutshell in that one round just so chaotic leaving things down to the wire and yeah complexity having to scramble to try and get on the bomb in time but we're talking about some of the phas individuals and uh robs was doing some uh dirty things on this map wasn't he yeah very chaotic game Freya but still robs he's cool right what he has is composure so first start of the round round seven I think this was the crucial round of the first half because of the economy a quick trade on yard now it's a 433 situation for FaZe I want you to take a look at this guy this is floppy you can't see the name clearly here but he is the ram player drops very aggressively he pushes as the smoke is fading and he doesn't see anyone they hear someone they will see spot someone on Heaven they might not know it's Poppy but because of the fact that robs doesn't have any contact that allows phas to really push down secret with the remaining two players now it's a 3v3 complexity found rain outside and Rob of course patient as he is probably pieced the puzzle completely together you can see how aggressive twist was going down he gets the double kill on the flankers in the end flpp is going to be forced to save and this completely shatters the economy of complexity and gives face control of that first half and that's why you know you love to see robs play but you hate to be playing against him because he's such a masterminding these situations able to piece of pieces of the puzzle together create the full picture and take full advantage of this this was a master class from robs individually right but overall we have to command the t- side and the Tactical vision and the Tactical game plan from carrian and the company from face right because even though it looks chaotic a little bit when you watch like this right but it's actually pretty good game plan going into this game pressuring vent pressuring door so robs can actually get those opportunities once floppy rotates from ramp and goes to leather base he get a lot of opportunity to go down the vent down the ramp and create even more chaos and we know that he handles seem self very well in chaos because he can recognize the situations the little gaps and then make additional frag and that's how he wins round eight on the T side that was supposed to be enough a different player would just hold something in lobby right and wait for a push on but Rob SE goes for these opportunities that's why he's one of the best tside new cers in the world let's give our flowers to broi as well in this one again continuing you know although they didn't manage to close out over pass he was having instrumental impact on that first map the fact that he's found himself in the zone and we can see him getting vocal on the ser as well during those timeouts too putting some in some words and in uh so many fracks yeah there were moments as well right for broki I he had I I feel like he had more moments in overpass like more flashy moments if 4K comes to mind but you can see the way he was maneuvering himself on that CT side especially when the big pressure was taking trying to take madis into his own hands couple of shots missed here and there but you go back to the one round with the Scout for example you know just decapitating a player coming out outside so despite the fact that there have been some vagaries in the individuals for the face side you know rain was comparatively a little bit quieter uh twist was still struggling a little bit so and so but broy broi and robs they're just this consistent Foundation of fragging prow wer phase let's move on to round number 19 because you know we've been talking about how FaZe are capitalizing upon things there were small mistakes from complexity coming through or maybe things that we were questioning that's the round that the fled just mentioned broy gets the entry kill right with the with the Scout drops dies one for one on ramp and now what's the trade with him they have the be bomb s right they're going to get the kill on broy why are they going w why why as hell is you're going V why don't you just go you're in a 3v3 just plant the bomb and play the post plant you killed the ram player you killed the Rotator and no one else is in the sight even if one player went down went where can he be he's not long he can only be Deon I don't know what the idea here was from complexity they over they were overthinking this was a halfby for FaZe so they would have been at 11 instead they lose it FaZe gets life back and manages to just only just close out the game but that's the sort of thing that happens right when it comes to arena games the pressure is on and you got to remember for these but most of the players on this in this server right now they haven't been in this sort of situation and perhaps ever right and you are going to have mcoms like this happen you shaking your head Cass yeah I don't think it's the arena I don't think it's the pressure I think the specific situation was pretty simple I I know that there was Deon was smok and smoked and then somebody probably called out there was a rifle you know behind that smoke rain wasn't there ker was on the sneak through the vent but rain read that and then he went back killed him and that was the problem communication I think he mistimed his you know initial flank because simply he just played it bad that that that is all uh but nothing nothing more than that well finally oh Lord finally we got a third map in this Arena no better way to be closing out this Grand Final so let's go ahead and check in with hku she had a chance to catch up with the teams ahead of [Applause] ancient though right now we have complexity I had an opportunity to talk to TC and he said like despite the fact that they got both the pistol runs there will be too many mistakes on their City side and FaZe took advantage of that right now it's going to be the third map and it's definitely going to be the final one yeah I am so excited to be diving into h of course that we've seen complexity playing this one quite a lot so how are we kind of uh weighing up the two sides of the equation in they played it quite a lot and I think that goes into their benefit but it it's not a great map for them it was as the tournament progressed they were slowly getting better they managed to eat out the win against Bad forom G2 was nowhere to be found in that semifinal and complexity just dominated them across the board so I think it really helped the amount of times they played in the tournament but still FaZe I feel like they have an edge yeah I have to agree with you on that like when it comes to G2 like you said they were not in the server at all this phase is going to be a whole different ball game altogether what a really life of complexity on Ancient in particular is their ability to just come fight back in the second half they usually it's kind of 50/50 in the first half but on the T side right just some really good fast-paced death balling coming up from them and that is something fa have to deal with I feel like the experience might you know be a factor right now in map number three right after you lose the map like you do on the second map if if you are complexity coming into the third one yes you maybe have the advantage because you play the map more times but overall The Experience should be and the mental as should be on ph's side right now I'm a little bit afraid from complexity I think they just need a good start to avoid kind of going you know back going like super deep in the in the minus I guess of either round so overall I think P has the advantage a little bit here yeah any uh individuals that you're looking at for your money Blair we haven't seen too much from twist just he you know going to be instrumental maybe coming into ancient yeah twist has been very very quiet so far but for me I think if complexity pull off this what would be a massive upset is going to be floppy right he's been he was actually phenomenal in the last two ancient games they played against bed boom and I do believe against G2 as well this looking almost unplayable so a floppy steps up that this could get really close well we've already heard from the complexity Camp curs here of Fu so let's see how new and the the boys a feeling heading into ancient so I had to talk to Neo and I asked him about what exactly happens doing the tacticals and he said like when it comes to the team he tells them like to cool down to chill out a little bit like so they make sure that they're playing their own game that so that complexity would not catch up to them we saw that work out and hopefully they're going to do the same thing on the third [Applause] map sticks from all of your CS2 games simply search your Steam account to access a detailed

on one side of the stage and complexity on the other I'm joined by two of my favorites Henry G and sponge to bring you all the action and it's not very often Alex we get to say the Grand Final is the best game in the tournament this one had delivered on all fronts right down to the Wi and both mats everyone turning up and we're seeing ancient to close things out our fan favorite our favorite map probably as well Chad yeah I'm really excited to see this one get under away just the sheer Pace that these teams have been approaching some of these moments the punch that has been packed by the individuals and the excitement that this crowd has brought Sydney you have been amazing let's kick it into gear one last time Legacy at stake here starting CS2 with a trophy is what every team dreamed of and only these two still have that Up For Debate I'm sure complexity they probably weren't flying to Sydney with the expectation of standing on this stage no not at all Stark underdogs up against the Beast of the stage Nobody Does it Better when that aura is at an alltime high FaZe versus Let's Get It On All Right ladies and gentlemen this epic Grand Final culminates here on the Soggy swamps of ancient I want you to give me everything you [ __ ] got complex z g this is for all the marbles let's go complexity two spokes a moloto and they're sending all the Manpower it towards the a bomb site it's Caron setting up his teammates with the flash P they're getting aggressive on that CD side it's Swiss getting ready to push pushing toward the B Lan but no one to be found this will be an a execution smokes are deployed Ela Patrol the extremities and it will be the a finish as Cole K here turn towards the bomb site youtil limp out and they're in rotation on the way FaZe have to deal with a Le he's spotted out too yeah robs the unknown entity will they clear him tracks them oh the Trigger Discipline two clicks and the pistol is theirs taken by force robs in these pistol rounds is finding his impact and the patience in pressure of the last map pistol and he keeps his cool dude you see that the indecision Grim thought about it decided to opt for the L was a 50/50 on the clear and rops the Trigger Discipline the fact that he has enough of a level head in that moment with this much pressure to hold his fire and take him both and bear in mind he was looking very good complexity they don't even get the plant out of that one it has to be the full Eco once again we go towards a it's going to be a pop flash courtesy of floppy and look at the aggression the assertive play of broy they know exactly what's coming in here next it's going to be robs to defend he's got a lot of players in front of them and he's starting to mow them down a good response the M4 only good for what they're stering for the pl they might just get it the bomb doesn't get planted but they get a couple of kills but All Is Lost it's still a pretty decent round I thought JT might have actually got it down there that that's called commitment to the call an in-game leader brain we need the money just trying to punch in those digits but twists an important denial sure they will be buying regardless the AK is about to come into the hands of the North American Corp hey yo twist he's just woken up with a quick 4K of his own sure against the EO but it is terrifying if he wakes up as well this is old meta ancient 3B 2 mid just full control and RV smoke to divide and complexity not in a rush but carrian look at the aggression yeah he is forced away rain he wants to fight they want to take these fights it already robs onto a Le and now R he'll take two oh that might be the round in itself a five versus two floppy and Grim nothing they can do smoked off with the bomb and t-spawn but look at the radar I really just want to point out this line of the CTS if they go for full mid control and B Lane every time that Laden with flames that mid space they're just going to be able to lock down and have this key component I'm talking about old met where we know how much more difficult it is in CS2 with some of the adjustments to be able to get out mid and fight for cave it really hampers the te's and sure the Cs this is only good out the gates once the util starts to subside it's not as powerful but the round's already won so complexity you're either going to have to cool your jets slow it right down or start getting a Cave Smoke in play otherwise oh nice shot something back rain load twist half carrian as well yeah it's rain though look at this this is absolutely beautiful oh dear okay this is actually getting a little bit problematic a three on two is certainly possible better in mind it was a five on two to kick things off they still got 30 seconds here one player defending the B bomb side that's going to be caragan he's tucked away here he's low HP as well there's every chance he goes down big kill that should secure the round at this point unless Grim can do something magnificent at this point he knows where the first player is finds that frag can detect the second will be a fake plan almost certainly oh my God a real chance there and almost Hollow Victory considering the advantage they have Chad yeah precisely and if your complexity with the sh on the other foot you're happy that you brought back a couple of kills as you mentioned that one felt like it was done IND dusted immediately after the initial exchange so the fat complexity get a few frags back well that is something to celebrate yeah it keeps phas modest to say the very least takes the wind out of their sales they don't have as many resources going forward they might not be able to continue with that emphatic Pace still a successful round still three Z up but just not as clean as it should have been it does allow complexity to partially Buy into round number four here Tech 9's the board and a straight up B rush trying to channel car mow him down if possible it's going to be the first kill for him but it's flbs are insane but broy is better up JT a couple of kills once again but a pretty comprehensive victory for fa hold up is this pace a little bit worrying for complexity I understand that they want to get the pedal to the medle and it was favors some for them over there on nuke when they were taking that yard space remember H flank around the heavens as well as the pistol round but four rounds have gone by in the blink of an high and look at the lineup this couldn't be any better range is coming out moment him down bro still alive you're right though chat those flashes really set them up for Success you could see from bro's POV it was rain however with full vision and he profits there's that Cave Smoke you can see it going to land yeah smoke cave Through the flames JT it allows the te's to actually focus on this mid area you can See's very aware of it as well oh it's JT taking advantage of the smoke blown towards the cave entrance that was desperate that was twist his and it leads to rain's demise they were trying to hook up Rain towards the cave but it leads to his demise you're right and now on the back foot here a five versus four round complexity have to convert here they cannot afford to go down five and zero they're Flying Blind in mid smoke on donut smoke on red well this is key it's going to force carrian to acknowledge the rotation good pressure from complexity that loss of rain will it continue to bring complexity's first round on this third map home [Applause] Robs a master of his craft sha cheating over and making the gamble hedging his bets a hard clear ahead of them oh carrian blinded and in the Flames he burns but now the angle clear RS only the one it still favors complexity but only by a Nat's Wing at 10 HP carrian finds the head shot repositions a double kill from the captain He's Surely going to go down now but can he take one more with him no the answer to that it's howzer with the frag well here he comes twist yet to die in this first half five and zero right now no utility with the AK47 in his hand this one certainly in his wheelhouse the first frag is his up against a Le former teammate now to try and continue the streak for fazeclan for planted TI it at some Pace he's got a diffuse Kip he's got the Firepower and the HP but Al is giving him nothing El versus twist who have seen this coming and Al the one to Prevail to bring home the bacon and complexities first what a well put together round the remedy for that lane aggression immediately comes into play The Cave Smoke JT the ingame leader stepping up with this opening pick and he even found more great job there's a leash doesn't even allow out twist to get towards that bump denies and they're happy with that one they're on the board now complexity and he can see now the financial ramifications of that previous blunder the five on two that led to a two on two essentially broi having to m is into his own hands he was so good on you carried them over with the Finish Line his first shot rattles off doesn't connect and now floppy takes advantage and find some space yeah but I bet you are hoping that to be a surprise right all been around like this what are the Investments looking like and immediately he's the first shot rattled off yeah but look where he is now completely evacuated and so if complexity up wise to this trick wise to the potential it really only hinges on carrian I like the fact they're calling the bluff car's going to get a face for the lad oh no still good gets the smoke down oh Rob is push does nothing and floppy's clearing out the sight one frag at a time broki and twist they have rotated through this will not be the path of least resistance for Cole and twist makes that clear a statement of intent onto howzer trying to WR the ship a 3v5 now four if broi gets back towards a quick smart there could be a chance but he hasn't rotated just yet still over towards Speedway going to be rain yeah he's in a main though I believe so yeah this is actually not a bad position if they Overlook the spot go for a quick plant here it could be what a shot from R he takes the aggro it's enough for his teammates to rotate him he's here with the awp they might be able to establish the round three versus two complexity collapsing and green steals the round away 180° you have to deal with Coming Out Donut the fact that rain holds on to that territory robs pushed and already died this shot what is that tracks him on the jump at Le does everything to pull acrossair broky this Crossfire by virtue of rain surviving look at this it's so good from Face Clan and oh the frustrations bubbling over to the surface now the first the first signs of tilt there the complexity they've been so composed throughout this series but that is a rough one they had absolutely everything going in their favor the first couple of kills they had phas on the ropes but they didn't account for a m there if brain was able to find some impact by some time for broken to rotate over it could have been enough and it was absolutely everything ah I just don't think Le can quite believe it they dealt with the aggression or what they thought there were someone else towards a m really yeah Rob's push you wouldn't expect rain to be there so positionally God here from rain well this is the problem now if complexity can't gets back into it sure this is just a lighter investment they're in so much trouble they win these rounds o Chad we've seen it time and time again this tournament they can make these rounds work it's rain only good for one carrian providing the backup here but still and neck and neck this kill could decide it caragan maintains control the be bomb side is his the page will slow down here two players remain Al and H with everything to do and he has a pretty decent position but can't connect the shop that decides it Alle would have to do something spectacular with the tech n standard chance well I think the fact that he is not noted he is truly well and truly Behind Enemy Lines you have to do so to catch robs off guard he's so aware and he's so aware at the possibility of the slip and robs connect yeah the frustration starting a spiral for Al as well yeah you can see it he's done a great job as an individual maturity in front of our very eyes he's still a young man but you can see he is the one who needs to keep it together the rest of them do not have the experience on this type of a stage and now he is cracking that is a big issue it shouldn't all be on him but in this environment it is that is just the fact of the matter there is not two ways around it and there's another reaction he needs to take a deep breath and try and reel this in before it's too late a five round lead Alex this is out of control now yeah and look at a go this frustration leads to an immediate charge through the midm smoke he wants to fight he wants to tussle with twists yeah that was so close as well significant damage one more bullet could have done it rain jumping control showing some tricks here a lot of damage inflicted towards complexity here's the caragan signature or completely removed by floppy there another opening kill and they've got a time to work with here rain will try and recover the be bomb side get himself out of cave here but his complexity is slowing it right down you have to make good on this number Advantage what they did before was great right the way they played the map the pressure the rotation just got a little bit too tricky and this one's a bit sticky the smoke is missed a singe of the flame no denial of the info they were aiming for broy post the or pup says middle clear I feel like you should just stick to your guns but that smoke o very deep it's way too deep that's gone through the doors and two two Miss smokes in one round chat we're seeing a lot of that this tournament understandably so the first CS2 Land final here pressure is high but H missing a key shot there as well starting to crack once again 40 seconds they need to work out how they're executing towards the B side yeah he gave it a go Grim trying to find the space but now segregated one by one they topple FaZe already with the half in the palm of their hands the seventh to absolutely secure it and there it is FaZe Clan they're feeling themselves here on the third and for complexity they're up against the crowd too carrigan's asking you one simple question Sydney are you not entertained Chad you are right that Advantage they found they completely squander it they can't connect the dots the shots not landing and it's broy once again closing the round out 7 to one they are spiraling here in the third and final map four rounds to go money is a question mark they barely plant they haven't planted the bomb once in this teas gu campaign the war round they win was by virtue of kills not a single PL otherwise they've got $3,400 per player it has to be another half by if you ask me if they've all in invest in this one they are just living on a hope and a prayer hoping they can steal rounds away with those Desert Eagles and Gil I think it has to just be Tech 9's and build for the future and they'll get one hero AK that will be about it if we take a step back think about the way the world was talking about FaZe Clan were they done they haven't won anything in sometime the Intel Grand Slam sure but where have you been it's not the team that everybody was hoping would follow through they've been a shadow of themsel losing motivation towards the end of Cs go as well was a question mark whether this roster would stay together but what a way to kick off there CS2 campaign here in Sydney and you got to strike while the iron is hot a new game some new works but the same phase back in form yeah everyone's here every single member of this star studded Squadron on all cylinders oh rain is just the master of cave yeah he he knows what he has to do each and every time when to be aggressive when to peel off and you can see right now sensing the pistols on the other side doesn't want to risk it his AK is too valuable giving that towards enemy hand to be an absolute nightmare it's Grim though bear in mind the hero AK-47 Alle with the Gil as well this round not a four gone conclusion but still a very difficult one for Cole to get over the line committed off angle Le how he know is he that's nice that's exactly what complexity needed another opener but you need to convert these coal it's not enough it's true had too many of these opening kills now and it is collapses in the dying stages of the round and speaking of which time is of the essence they haven't got much positional control with 30 seconds on the clock right now rain a very strong position Alex he's got a chance for a multi frag here commits to the spray and the B bomb side now under a lot of scrutiny caragan what have you got for us he's got one he's got an away and he's got another caragan denies it has to be Grim it has to be JT they can't lose this one and they will at the hands of broy or no dear complexity crumble opening kills but no rounds to show for it it's unraveling the seams here complexity there's not much left in the tank you can see the body language says it all they are down and now dejected as caragan he had to deliver two kills here beautiful positioning great spray down and broy again with the awp look at this awareness towards the Red Room boom takes Grim down 8 to one they're in a prime position to pick up the trophy here at Intel extreme Master Sydney 2023 there'll be another buy available all for holer AK-47s but Brokey once again another chance to open things up the opening frag has been found but robs will answer back yeah H didn't quite have the adjustment there onto robs but the orb shut down the frag found and Rain only an MP7 to his name and that's cost him into the sight now we might get to see that bomb go down for complexity it has to be there around here oh did he just slip through yeah JT doesn't know somehow he gets away from the spray run down by car caught with the pin pull and the bomb will go down robs last scene on a now we need to talk about floppy he's got the most kills right now for complexity Call at nine and he's still saying keeping somewhat Calm Mind you he might be the fire starter right if Al is mentally cooked right now someone else is going to need to have a couple of big rounds if we can make it to consecutively Cole maybe they can start to iron out a couple of those woes there's still a chance back in the finances for FaZe they're not great they're pretty bad actually precisely so if the team still understands the position they have in this game and a few of them can keep on the straight and narrow they can still bu themsel and a back into this yeah it's not over yet there's still a lot of rounds to be played A4 would be a miraculous recovery considering what we've seen so far they know they can make the first incision time and time again they see to hold it together openings are great Henry it's been fantastic again they found it once more and now finally getting over the line and it's going to take the wind out of the saes of FaZe I think we've got a tactical timeout here and this is the chance now if complexity have a chance in this third and final map they need to wake up gather themselves and TC's going to chime in now this has got a few more twists and turns I can feel it this this isn't going to be a one-sided third map I'll tell you that right now also trying to keep track of what phas can bring into this round you're going to be expecting everything including the kitchen sink but we can see with the buyers there's somewhat light on there's a few emissions rain will be able to eek out an M4 but nades it's not there for everybody they are lacking key pieces of crowd control utility do they go back to the aggressive STS now they don't for it Henry they just like they they could do double Molly mid or a smoke and a Molly and try and jump up but normally you need a whole bunch of Hees and molli to make this possible we're talking three mollies a handful of smokes a couple of flashes I don't know if phase could be so aous compulsory round for Cole yeah if they can pick this one up it guarantees their fourth round and then they'll be back in this Grand Final JT tucks himself in towards the Beehive lots of damage taken on rude though floppy down to 50 points of Health holdo not far behind him now hold for the aggression waiting for it it's a bit of a b stack here we've got phze with three players on this side of the map mid is essentially open they're very passive towards that side it's just twist patrolling with the M4 in towards donut Flash and swing carrian nothing to report Port however setting up his rain with broi on the or this is going to be a tough one to crack they'll give it a go The Flash the Miss shot from broi the Molly forces him away but will they not clear rain the double kill again cave is his domain 14 frags from the Norwegian and sure they blow the smoke but there's no window of opportunity to do anything with it no frag found and look at robs he's playing a perfect game of Counter Strike in this third map he's just such a nuisance rain another aggressive position the shadow Advantage he's on for the a fclan once again dissipating complexity stay out of there that's mad absolute Madness a and it was floppy and Alle the two going through cave as well just mince meat the initial frags and the pre-fire yeah that's what they were hoping for but look at that shadow Advantage can it get easier than that for rain you just don't anticipate that sort of play they yeah right you just don't even consider that an option you got a five on three of course he's fallen back we tagged him up but no like you said the shadow advant Final Round Here look with the double kill it's another opening frag but robs answers back though Brees the smoke walk out robs cannot believe it caught off guard paned by a Le an advantage again for complexity just to end this half with a glimmer of hope a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel oh but look at the rotation of broi he has no cares in the world completely given up the other side of the map to fortify with rain who seems to have no troubles at all and guess what they might even push what with a disadvantage Elia is going to be scouting a you're right rain forward he just goes dry good God it could have been two I broke you come as well watch this oh it's the bomb broi brings the fight To Grim punishes looking for more he spots him JT hits the shot on the jump up oh and he hits the other an important frag for JT and now it's carrian left alone carrian he knows something's a foot here can feel the rumble of the crowd knows he's under a lot of pressure oh he did he did carrian JT's going to look away the strikes oh JT he gives them something to celebrate it's only three but is it enough or a phase heading for that trophy find out with us when we [Music] return [Music] [Music] count [Music] [Music] n [Music] [Applause] [Applause] look [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] so [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] clex guys in this [Music] place [Music] one final half of Counter Strike separates us from crowning the first champion of imem in CS2 Faith Clan boasting nine dangerously close to that necessary 13 but can complexity start with the pistol it really does require a pistol round for complexity spamming away into the smokes just howz he's got a lot on his plate carrian first Contact good work from howuch brought down by twist bomb will go down and oh Ray needs two he can't get anything done looks good for Cole if they can get this retake started hold on robs some broi hitting shots broi just miraculously finds two it's floppy in the clutch pushing out takes the bomb is they going to double Peak him he can't do anything oh and carrian look at the sigh of relief they know the hard work has surely been done here 10 in the bag complexity what can you do now look at this from bro one great this shot full shoot terrorists win Oh my days a death sentence here for complexity now we talked about the CT side that second round Force by pick your poison Chad do you go for it now it looks like the answer is a resounding yes they will be Force buying here the final timeout and this could decide their fate a scout for holer and M4 for a MP9 pistols otherwise if FaZe picked this round up up there one point away from Championship points and it looks like they're destined to pick it up the Old Faithful MP5 he's been brought into the mix as well JT fully investing in a Le he drops the rifle he drops an incendiary this is a captain looking to his star and saying it's now or never well if you want to be the big player you need to step up in the big moments Alle this is your chance to find the impact solo locking down mid that silence them for sent forward but there's a fight coming oh and now leash he obliges with a fantastic double on the M4 complexity called upon him and he's delivered for a second round Force by they must convert the job is surely done Elite brings the fight further he's lost his life and that could perhaps raise eyebrows if this continues to spiral that's all the Firepower removed now bear in mind there was one single M4 now it's down to the MP9 the Scout they can play two players in Eva bombsite here but there's so much time on the clock available robs and broki available they've got a couple of smokes between them AK-47s and tandem as well as robs investigates the extremities here the bomb still down in towards spawn waiting for any sort of reactive play from the CTS but they're borrowing themselves in they don't want to give anything away here this round is still up for debate amazing work for a lead you couldn't ask much more than that damage inflicted double kill found and now the CTS know they can't wrestle their Laurels are going to have to be a little bit more active yeah playing not playing scared playing to win not playing not to lose yeah there you go that's the upgrade back in the hand what did Rob SP in I I don't think so oh it doesn't matter when you can react like that they can get in towards B there's multiple members here sure but nice util use from broi short smoked off howz has to reposition they can still lose this complexity no no yeah there's a double smoke down now oh it's actually a guaranteed plant K and no K like a 10 seconduse required it can't be a five on two that slips away it simply cannot go down like this it will be done the game will be over if they cannot convert this round bear in mind no kits no utility they have got the M4 but they have to get their skates on here as the bomb is starting to tick at some Pace here yeah robs already primed and ready to take that first Contact he has to take the fight now floppy good for it JT combines a 10 second ofuse broy in the clutch can't do it and so complexity they weather the storm battered and bruised but a fourth on the board and that's the first sign for a Le in this final map he needs to do that and more the task that is going to be at his door will be massive FaZe will not relent they will keep coming with everything they've got in pursuit of this 13 but a with a double kill miraculous stuff we were talking about it you want to be a big player well he showed up here today to keep the minut and secure number four but that is a meager four six more rounds just to tie things up it was anything but comfortable but with the massive lead they have face CL will accept their fate take the full Eco here allow complexity to slowly but surely work their way back into it in terms of resources five players making their way in towards no support no support for how oh you're right but he has got a strong position Chad this should be fine with the first kill tuck in dear spray down and there's the first Ace of the Grand Final no no no not on Houser's watch on his Zone but he gets it done with ease the full EOB bash is one way for the Norwegian to make his mark it raises morale it gets him back in the game it boosts his finances and maybe just maybe complexity can build upon this that's more like it the Norwegian start stepping up as we get into another gun Round Here AK-47s available it's just twist down to the Galil they still have a massive lead here but a couple of promising rounds and complexity have got them back in his third and final map look at FaZe not fighting for this control early allowing complexity to aggress Alex this could be terrible for Cole haven't smoke the doors carrian spot him sprays him out this is a lot to do and carrian good onto a Le he gets nothing and neither does floppy two of the brightest stars in Cole extinguished in the opening 20 and there's more to be had great fine JT has given complexity control of B full control his teammates elsewhere ready themselves for friction oh no Grim on his first Peak out of the donut side he's gone down to twist ha's not clearing this if he does bro the dead man beautiful from huk now that bomb on the back of robs likely going down it's the wrong gamble oh they're so far away they've got an incend three flashes kids are available nice little swing here hunting for information twist oh what are you up to they need to maybe Retreat of this one reposition CT's right back in this they've got kits available and he look he looks driving at this point also managing to spray them down it's swis who cannot convert complexity keep the dream alive that is three consecutive rounds of confidence boosters the Alle on the M4 thanks to the in-game leader the Eco a from huk and now JT in the one on one that is a massive round and it's going to continue coming they would not have won that round without JT's frags all of those important closes it down finds the equalizer on towards B Doors that's JT with a sixth for the bo of complexity and look how quick this can get out of control faas now without the bomb going down wait no hold up it did they still just can't justify a buy here it is just going to be some deagles some smoke some light util extinguish it's still a dangerous round they've got ke BL they've got Desert Eagles some basic utility flashes smokes being deployed in towards middle Grim catching a face full of them he needs to find at least one here he can't go down with nothing he'll get the first it looks like it's all under control complexity coming back to life here after a disastrous start ancient this one's locked in rain and broki will have nothing to say about it the best they can hope for is a couple of kills maybe a bomb plumber I can't imagine a world where that happens this is looking convincing now complexity posting four in a row after this round 2900 loss bonus into the next so more than enough for the buy can they get any damage done or do Cole get clean beat that a be IDE Jesus no way B plan is guaranteed that's massive for rain yeah he earned that one insane fair enough no not another one bloody hell Crosshair was in the right place I would have lost my absolute [ __ ] okay three round game yeah hold on well that plant and the Damage that's been done you feel at this point with the loss bonus where it'll find itself going into the next so we're talking maxed out it guarantees a broky awp as well right the plan going down there a couple of kills found it should almost certainly enable them to bring out the sniper but they don't go for it they're actually going to keep their guns quite literally with the AK-47s here okay well interesting enough after losing the pistol on this half four over towards a early from phase so the only player to control B Lane will be rain 20 kills to his name the bomb on the back of broi an aggression this is interesting from Grim he could activate at any point if it stays too quiet and nobody peers in he might start looking and they're actually setting up outside his sight interesting look at that smoke deep into Dono curious as if that was the plan but it will definitely remove one angle Le clears the smoke exposed his car arant was spotted as well so info on the occupation of Middle testing donut now spam sky and Grim you're right spotted out pre far through that's a problem now Grim's in a very difficult spot just hoping he'd find one kill before he's taken down in the USP and he makes it work like I said one would do considering the circumstances back to a four and four h snatches the lead away yeah takes out Twist on the donut side this was a two-pronged assault and it seems they're actually going to try and reset rain investigating towards the Red Room JT here turns the flash safely pressure applied by the boatload here's rain looking for trouble looking for that equalizing frag El sees the shadow what that from carrian how is he hitting these shots and his hits them both towards the side of red room and complexity find another from 10 through three the score now reads 10 to8 and FaZe Clan call another look it was Scrappy from Grim Henry but the fact he gets one is massive it slows things down it allows HZ to stay posted on donut that his all brings out he knew he was done for but if he could find one kill they could still Salvage the round it was absolutely everything there caragum with another stunning shot you thought that would be enough to win the round but it's floppy with a double spray down from the B Lanes here amazing work there he'll close things out with the awp frag complexity are alive and well two rounds in it it's all to play for now this Grand Final delivering on all fronts as complexity now post five rounds in a row the mental photoo being shown by a team that is unfamiliar with the grand final stage this is exactly what you would hope for if you were complexity when you walked out here today the hard work the preparation embracing the new game and you're just two rounds away from tying things up against one of the best to do it what a final this is the game we were hoping for every single round right down to the wire significant damage at the star here but it's twist not dissuaded happy to push in he's only got that a little but trying to make it work and doesn't in the sh will have to just peel off here alar in support of a Le they know they've got him trapped trying to bail himself out of trouble good team isolate twist trapped behind the boxes El he's going forward instead of backwards it's broki oh already and that's first blood for FaZe JT immediately activates this is what carrigan's looking for and he still gets one eyes on the monitor yeah nice position there from carrian guarantees at least one frag a four versus three huge advantage on a map like ancient you spread very thin on the CT defense now they can't just sit back and wait for the next move they need to be active all no knows it as well using the awp towards middle needs to find this kill and response twist still behind the boxes in Middle Grim holds towards donut and he can see they quite segregated faser is waiting for that next reaction but time is ticking away well Grim's got the util to block but he's over to WS a we can see where the bomb is starting to Lear now and he has the support of howzer awp there's one smoke on rain where will he deploy it short or long that's the question 25 seconds looks like a long smoke howzer will have the line howzer this has to be a perfect to sh and it is on ter rain trying to slow them down on across to the site heils another all on robs no time for this one complexity set to collect and make this just a one round game we are not done oh that's more like it it all started with the eight for holer it was against Glocks but it lit the fire beneath him and now he's hitting absolutely everything one round in it as he finds kill after the kill floppy solid as you would like into toward that K position denying the pl once again yes they have maximum loss bonus but it's another half by as complexity look to tie things up how have they brought this game back in their favor up against just Tech 9 presumably a b Rush all five players are fa on this side of the map they take a lot of damage on R it's going to be an execute but there's three players here here it comes receive that's a problem that's a response Hower can you really get another can you save your boys watching from the sidelines is JT R's already got a lot of space 7 HP but it's not stopped him pushing forward retake required rifle juggled El Le fast on the flank this is real dangerous now bomb ticking away CT retake coming through there smoked off for now trying to find some space of control robs will SW the orer it's allward now he takes him down and now this is where complexity on the back foot but Al he's fighting back he's done everything he can oh and through through the smoke broy finishes off Grim floppy needed that one and broy in the clutch is there a gap on the smoke there's two of them he could just Spam the diffuser he's going to get the bomb a clutch from broi iment he's done enough and FaZe finally break through the first round since the pistol round FaZe get it done with the pistols and what the hell was that entry the take9 from range oh we'll see it again here it is what the hell is this bang Run and Gun the TCH 9 rips it open it was anything but an easy round broi fighting two for nail through the smoke how does he find the defuser so cleanly and they are back they are the ones in charge now 11 to9 money becomes an issue once ever complexity these rounds have been so tantalizingly close every single time MP9 for math a lack of utility and this is a chance of FaZe to post Championship points oh FaZe allowed hope to breed in the complexity camp and now to squash them like this The Bu you mentioned the financial situation the problems they face if they cannot bounce back immediately and hit double digits fazeclan will be lifting that tropy in one round's [Applause] time clear in 10 the call has been made by carrian but Al looking for info early as he glances down B Lane spots a nade in the skies floppy calls it clear info flowing info flowing rotates they've lost so much at the map now FaZe have no choice but to go with his a commitment no two ways about it you've lost everything else on the map and have everything it's a double pump they're hoping that they over rotate back here comes the second wave smoked off he can't go through mid as he may have intended Grim huk as well to help him out goes through the smoke oh my God H up he saves them with the opening maybe more required from Grim oh twist has got him and FaZe three frags away from the 12 it's only a couple left but just like that El has cleared him out it's up to rain in the clutch he Nails El and JT once again has to come up clutch 37 rain ice cold in the clutch and that might be it Alex that might be the back breaking round that guarantees the trophy it's Championship Point money is completely ruined after the huge streak of round there is no loss bonus to speak of and it's rain delivering on all fronts bu his 24th kill that reaction says it all they are in a world of trouble now it will take three rounds in a row just to take us to overtime and it all starts here SMGs and pistols FaZe have got open Runway to pick up the trophy right here right now they're losing their grip unbelievably close down to a One V one but now the margin for eror is zero complexity the crowd wants blood the fan favorite delivering an unbelievable run they started this tournament with a loss to game allegion true but is there any more from Hower bear in mind the Firepower is not significant really for phas E they're operating with ma 10 and Gils as every chance they give this one up and Tozer who's had a fantastic showing here in the Grand Final just ran away the smoke from carrian forces the rotate and so Grim has to step up the 57 spams snaps the neck TK still hitting shots and complexity they need more rain again this time a one on four I don't think so they do not go quietly into this one unbelievable it's the 57 the throws a cat amongst the pigeons there and Al with another double he's holding on he's hitting the shots it's h two onto an enemy one onto a teammate but that's a complexity round and the money's broken we're going back and forth here now it's going to go right down to the wire the averaging $2400 per player on the T and this is the moment their nades out the pants down and Grim capitalizes pounces he only gets one but the damage was significant even with the team kill they managed to get over the line convincingly and we could be going to overtime now look at the purchase they won with this before they're saving enough their lost one to 2900 they can buy next round but they won with this round before that rain entry the broky clutch can they do it again surely not twice shy JT yeah he backs away this time into the sight they come unloading his magazine it's hog with a double and complexity have taken us to the final round of Regulation nothing left for robs shut down on the partial this is amazing complexity showing Great Character amazing mental fortitude a very clean round they will have absolutely everything they need for around number 24 robs can do nothing there's nothing to save there's nothing to gather even one kill wouldn't have have any knock on effect here a chance to compose themselves I suppose look at this they're all watching the flank it's robs of course he's coming behind position murder Damage Done how many more can he get the bomb is down disconnected from robs you know where he is staying poised is robs trying to tap ahead floppy takes us the distance oh floppy didn't get the rifle you're right he has 5700 though they should be able to make this one work they should be able to drop the guns across so everybody has a rifle here for the last round of play and yes they will the awp in the mix and Hower going bers zerk look at this 25 kills for Hower monstrous stop Sydney do you want overtime let's [ __ ] go to complexity have the minerals to find this final round come so far recovered a 93 deficit they were down but they were not out A's open a is completely open complexity you're wrong side of the map you've investigated everywhere that FaZe are not yeah Grim's got the memo he's going to have to scarp it back over smoke grenade would goes so far right now Hog's on his way as well he's going to be smoked off he has a HG the incend is not bad either carrian on the lead the spearhead of this assault hzu finds that H they pause and he has nothing to report he's coming through has to step up when it needs to how's that one frag nice from a that's overtime three frags away now for complexity the nades have landed he's very low if he could find one more he's sealed the deal it's Al again to stand up 20 make it 22 and complexity they take us the distance overtime needed have you ever seen anything like it this is a grand final this is Counter Strike unbelievable scenes a sigh of relief for the coach DC there it looked like this game was over they didn't turn up in the first half down 93 down Chad they lost the pistol and still taking us to overtime and that man right there Al on your screen North America's one true hope he hasn't given up he hasn't lost the mental Edge and we go again yeah and leading by example still throwing aggression into the mix as huk continues to find frags impact from the AA hamstrings carrian floppy gives the fight and this is complexity finding a new elevation into the new game lovely from Grim takes down carrian poking his nose through the smoke and Fa empty-handed into the first round of OT I can't believe him how have they got the lead what a comeback they were down things out it's broy will have the last opportunity to do something with this round but it's all for not he's out of position surrounded by counterterrorist at this point 19 kills to his name but it would have to be a lot more to even imagine this round is possible so impressed that hok's still going for these opening gambits with pressure this high with an opponent this skilled he's here for the trophy he's not messing around whatsoever 28 kills dominating the server right now world class players have half of that total right now just a formality now maybe he gets a couple of kills but it's not going to happen JT will confirm the lead they've brought this game right back to life here the first round of overtime goes in their favor one- Z pH clam back to the drawing board even with with these open bomb sh they're not capitalizing they look a little bit frigid they're not ready to commit they don't have the same flare we saw on the opening maps I feel they need to take the pace back out of it when they allow complexity to make the initial Gambit the move go aggressive take the space that's when FaZe were doing a good job capitalizing in some of their rounds now to be fair not like they picked up a lot but we're talking the opening exchanges so if they could just buy their time for a moment maybe harass with some UIL like this allow the push of Le is everywhere Alex look at this yeah he's really in it to win it here now the CB is a power position for this kind of aggression and rain has the angle so Al oh still takes one cuts down caragan rain with the rebuttal floppy very committed does need to tuck in Rain Got Away heads up move from him you could see they were trying to isolate that floppy smoke very telling of another surge towards the B Lane to draw him back more flashes Meed and they will Scurry tucking tail smoked off this is what I was talking about FaZe is taking the pace out carrian can be the puppet master from the grave the fact he's the first to fall not the end of the world this is the in-game leader we're talking about chance for him to take stalk and because they've opted for this slower Pace there's an extra layer of utility another red smoke deployed JT to sech through donut can up be ramp that would be the best Port of Call for FaZe to get in towards a bomb site for free yeah different setup though Grim this time towards the G position with floppy it's rain throws out his smoke floppy Rees himself for the swing the fight it's rain timed to Perfection Grim reveals himself for the trade and now the pressure mounts as they enter the site the plant unlikely maybe it's not it's a safe plant for it broki does get tagged up a little three on three hard retake very difficult ooh just through the box brings the fight that's what they needed FaZe just have to get past huk easier said than done at times as he brings straight through the smoke what is this from H I can't believe it he's got a k maybe just maybe H could be the hero for complexity twist he's going to have to think about it and he by God oh he had oh chance in that one I can't believe the maneuver through the smokeing towards the cave he knew a player would be residing there gets the advantage 1 V one and it's van Doan who's victorious in find phase their first round in overtime here we go one1 a Miss shop if he hits that it would be miraculous continuing that Godlike form that he's shown throughout the second half here on Ancient and this is where the real Legacy starts for huk if you could just wipe that clutch from your memory wipe the if spots and maybe focus on the now focus on this final round of this first half of overtime oh just the details here as we go deep in the pressure mounts another timeout called from FaZe the only one they get in this overtime it will allow them to have a conversation for the two right to get the Lion Share of the tside which was the the issues for both of these teams is existed so the fact that Neo has called this at this moment is massive now they need to make good on the coach can they convert initial utility is heavy avoiding the majority is [Music] phze very active here a legion of prime position to be flashed in take a swing it's broi behind these double doors right now the bomide there as well bear in mind is joined by carrian the CTS have been very good getting this B Lane control smoking off the double doors right now trying to isolate any play towards the pocket position oh they moled him rain forced to use a smoke there's some info for you they've got full Lane control once those smokes fade it's rain that will fight for at Toth and nail yeah but this is very patient from phase they know what they're up to they know when these smokes dissipate they can regain control but it's all z a prime position here he hasn't missed many shots here on Ancient 29 kills to his name won't be finding another in this round the on three Advantage now FaZe mowing them down and swiss presumably confirms the round at this point 2-1 for FaZe looking very likely unless floppy can do something magnificent at this stage they know exactly where he is wants to play the time though run that clock down he's joined by Grim they're in the right position but they're rotating off they're hoping they're going to fall back but it's the wrong call well they just thought because they had seen bodies so aggressive that it was definitely going to be the a site ah they had a chance there as well the time running low they going to deny the that's going to feel miserable in answer to your question though they do that timeout called by Neo you only get the one using it to try and manufacture a second T round it's massive and it's huge for FaZe Clan give it a go and it's a great start floppy the sort of player that can make these rounds work known for his clutch potential he's finding head shot after head shot this is getting interesting now bear in mind twist is low as well they've got a chance that was the opportunity though it would have to be an Ace from floppy a fantastic effort but it will be fac stand posting 2-1 on their tside campaign in the first half of overtime surely that's enough both of these teams with their tside woes but it feels like a long time since we've seen complexity on the attack and this was great that patience taking the pace out you can see FaZe they really just wanted to close the game and especially with the type of rounds that they won to gets up to that magic number of 12 I think they thought they could just knock them out H screaming into the void let it all out now leave it all out here and complexity before they get underway TC ping their overtime timeout trying to keep the spirits High trying to point them in the right direction and Hower that body language you can tell he is feeling the pressure last time they were in this scenario they' lost the pistol and were down 103 now complexity again feel like the odds are stacked against them they've pushed phas but will that pedigree Prevail oh we have got a heavy lean towards a once again they've tried this time and time again complexity oh second or yeah on robs I like change up yeah well overtime allows this yeah you don't see many double Ops in CS2 just by virtue of the economy the mr12 yeah you don't see it too often this could be a great remedy to try and find Championship points again it's robs holding towards the temple but he's up against the big man himself warer such a slowly but surely he's got the bomb on his back as well needs to be careful here he's a frag for call but we'll see if they can convert it that was their problem definitely won expect a second op now yeah twist is getting run out he a trade here he's getting the bo JT sweeps him under the rug man Advantage extended by Grim's head shot and Rain thrust into a one versus three flash at his face as the bomb goes down uncontested bomb has been planted trying to play around the smoke it's held by grim and Grim secures it high impact from him there a triple kill for the First on that t side imagine if they just clean sweep this that that was huge we didn't see the action on the broky but it must have been a massive shot it was floppy that open things up towards middle as well right and then twis the double spray down on for the third as didn't have the HP that that was beautiful from Grim as well a prehemptive shot towards spawn closes things out and it will be tied up once again we'll continue in their tside campaign we're 1414 right now the double opset up won't be coming out for a second showing just can't risk it 12 and a2k you can spend that quick oh huge nade how many sound cues yeah and then broi builds upon it hold on though it's only the one from Grim broki's racked him up shut it down his rival Ora still around huk walks over the three corpses of his compatriots very difficult scenario bear in mind it is first to 16 whoever picks this round up as a championship Point once again trying to stay alive by this time trying and see if they can force the plant out of them and it's going to come through a f and JT actually hit one spam the boards found rain in the cave and now with the bomb down howar and JT trying to do the impossible live before our bar he looked away JT an impossible one for him but a powerful position all the same yeah the Smoke's not ideal he got the he's got the throws it high 12 times twist his first victim but there's a quick knee-jerk reaction out of Roki and so it's phze on won that Championship Point once again to be the first to lift the trophy in the new game wow every single round is Up For Debate a four versus two it look like they have no chance the bomb going down if H gets that kill towards the cave you never know they might have pulled it off it's a frustrating finish and he knows it as well he's got to keep it together he's had a fantastic showing one more chance to take us to double overtime can fil converted pick up the trophy right here right now it's been one of the best Grand finals of recent memory a fantastic showing from both teams it's once again kill there's only one man here it's carrian if they dare push if they dare take this initiative look he's blocked he's stopped him from coming up the ramp they won't make the move Rob searching now oh it's JT he could be dead he's not though overcomes Robs a massive frag a response from twist now noted in mid and how out just as looks away it's carrian that re aggresses Advantage squandered and FaZe in Prime position and it's A's low as well do 20 points of Health he can't be the lynchman of this operation it's floppy and Grim that have to do the heavy lifting here they've got a minute left on the clock but only one smoke available they've used one of them towards the Red Room great initiative to maybe get some mid control here and they're going to go back in towards the B bombs side through cave yeah you can see it sewing the seeds of doubt that maybe they had a maybe they head through donut maybe there's even some red pressure carrian are you ready for this Sydney are you ready for this smoke broy just looked away as they crawl they're through now issues trapped carrian zipped up through the Molly to deny just spanks his bottom has 30 seconds on the clock a two on two emerges the trophy on the line now pot shut pot luck no scope not to be it's only broken or we go again floppy he secures it and complexity forc us into a second overtime oh they hold it together another round that comes right down to the wire 1515 it's all recept and we will see of course complexity remain on the T side here taking matters into his own hands getting that opening frag floppy taking down carrian Carri just gets one there with the or could have been enough broi with no choice but to push the smoke and we reset it all once again both aers with absolutely insane moves out mid again Hower he's the can opener oh and Al is the one to keep them the advantage hold on carrigan's got the double on the push JT and Grim watching from the sidelines but there's a lot of space Al has accelerated into a hoping to borrow hoping to catch the off guard floppy so disconnected from the pack so Al needs a pick here if he can actually lock off the rotations and deny access towards CT spawn it could be enough to Floppy that to get the bomb down here that's a huge kill 17 points of Health brings it back to a two on two now floppy can Plum can he can he PL what's he doing that's costly after all of that hard work from El now it's practically impossible El North America watching as that one slips between their fingers floppy's going to be mad at that one I just don't think they're expecting anybody to be coming that quick because Alia just found that frag it was a deep kill and it was somebody looking towards spawn for any defensive plan would have worked yeah I'm with you Henry but he didn't want to plan open to Donut because he didn't have any protection he tried to get off it but Brokey just too Swift and the mental moves of these aers right now are round defining or yeah 31 for Hower he's trying summon aggressive again through mid through cave every time he goes He seems to find the frag the nade it lands Square on the jaw of aler rain dancing nades Landing RS fragging and pushing his rain pH pedal to the metal accelerate towards 17 oh this is going to be exhausting for these two teams I know it's mr12 we got less rounds but just how back and forth this has been try and brute for Al with the double okay just when it looks like there was nothing to be said about the round a gives them a Lifeline here holds them into a three versus two he's low on HP they have a couple of smokes between he need to recover that bomb they don't know the CTS have control of it yeah they don't know bro is even worried about a this is not by any means ph's round guaranteed if they stay quiet I don't think robs activates to investigate it really does again fall on carrian tucking in towards wood and considering the HP of both of these players he could get it done in one smes quick spray if they carrian this is it's all on [Applause] you spots him immediately big caran shuts them down and sets face up for Glory 2-0 for FaZe looking for the Clean Sweep here on their CT campaign a comprehensive close from carrian he keeps the dream alive there one more would give them the 3-0 great stuff here from robs towards middle and is carrian the perfect position spots the Shadow and denies absolutely everything into toward the B bomb say final round of this first half been made to work for this one nothing in this life is free and a grand final at IM no exception split good confident push from Red Smoke missed oh and yeah okay I'm hearing a lot of them is that the yeah that was the penultimate smoke from face they've only got one left at 1 minute 20 so good pressure from complexity what okay uh robs that's a liberty a freebie JT down number [Applause] Advantage they one twist he spots him out on his info towards Red Room picks up a secondary all interesting it's going to be the AIT to try and pick up at least one round on their tcii campaign assertive push from Grim here but it's all about the bait and switch robs is in the corner twist trying to find a pick to set his teammate up he can't find it props throwing them down and here they come looking for the Clean Sweep of the C and they've done it f got 3 surely it's enough the nails in the coffin and one final swing of the hammer from FaZe to condemn complexity to second place oh and FaZe are more than aware of the rule set and the way it works here each set of overtime you get yourself an extra time out so you get one per set they used it in the previous SOA complexity well this time round Neo again they are right here on the cusp of Glory another moment 30 seconds worth of composure and complexity you've come back once you came back again they can definitely do it regardless of this outcome they can leave the server with their heads held they've given us absolutely everything this evening ladies and gentlemen it's going to be the final round make some [ __ ] noise face clam with three opportunities to close things [Applause] out back to the the wall it has to be a perfect game from here on out for complexity they move over to their CT campaign it's a Le it's been so active towards that ledge hok has been emphatic with the awp time and time again cracking things open but one mistake will cost them everything now a smoke from Spawn towards B you can see it obscures the Ora line but there's the response a double incendiary a smoke on top they will not allow anything Pacey out of phase JT he gives it a good spam some significant damage done the dunk not going to quite hit the mark But softens carrian as well yeah good damage there on the CT side that's significant it's been one ding potential at this point that's carrian and Rain he's still going to keep spamming that is insane it's fading but JT goes for a bit of an all in here he wants answers there he smoke doors Flash and push at the same time they just CT on a so they're trying to sell a fake trying to force a rotation but the position of how means they know it's not going to be the a play Bri anti flash with a Le on the ledge floppy joins JT Ming awkward awkward indeed floppy backing away perhaps they overlook him it's JT safe spreads now he'll be down to 4 HP gets away from the flames and nice from El onto twist a double from the midh hold and Rain he can't get anything done El Le secures it with the triple the first of three tests pass yeah with flying colors as well Alex great assertion there towards the B Lane smoking of the double doors flash through pushing the cave getting control and it's a he's been so great in this position time and time again beautiful shots and now a triple kill he poses 30 of frag they can still do this two more rounds would be enough how's going back to a Cave Smoke robs has got a deeper variation telling a b pressure they finished it with pistols on this side of the map maybe they can do it with rifles yeah it's a full up execution Chad you're dead here we go charging through carrian and Rain they've already kicked open the door down goes JT still takes one it's a Le he needs this one Flash he's so blind rain gets away good moves oh dear there only two of them left and Hower he's been the Difference Maker but this time it's rain as Hower meets his maker and Grim alone as Face Clan they've heard him it's done it's suddenly done breathe that in a sound he'll never grow tired of face glan quiet this year but coming into the new game with new vibrations oh the fire in the belly the motivation reignited Counter Strike two returns fazeclan back to the winning ways their second title of 20203 the second IM Sydney for rain twists and carrian what a performance what a grand final throughout the
