CS:GO - Astralis vs. Natus Vincere [Nuke] Map 2 - Semifinals - IEM Katowice 2020

that's the name don't wear it out thank you so very much stunner yes nuclear on Dust two and now nuke as our second let's see if there's more twists and turns in this tail they've painted quite the picture though and the Danes it's their map pick Let's see if they can start it with a bangh Han starting on the T side here a lot of teams do Focus towards this ramper but flamy ready and waiting with the smoke do is to flashbang nicely as well and he has shut them right down they will not be rushing that position they'll have to rec coordinate and simple has actually been tagged as well he's been dropped the CZ B up armor room self and actually gone towards lower does want to break out the window apparently not he'll just hold down and hope for the best here considering he has been thwarted somewhat and now we'll see the smoke going out of the squeaky door and maybe a v dive on the agenda oh they want to get top site attention it's going to be flamy to be tested though and he's wisely chosen not to be overwhelmed instead that oneman Army will be joined by simple of course with that CZ on that low side but for now mag is charging straight in and he will go one for one simple biing his time on the site he once one with their back turned it doesn't matter if he's got no Health he still manages to get luck one keeping things level as that bomb goes down well then it's all looking quite good but Perfecto arrives from Secret equal trade and a two on two now no kid available right now but here comes Perfecto joined by boich he's holding towards the ramp and there is one player right next to on the close left he always seems to be one step ahead of his opponents but for now surely going down glaive should secure the round at this point that should all be locked down perfecto thrust into a one versus two at the start of this second map and gla just giving him nothing T teasing him and oh dear feeling the pressure he wants to go loud and my God he's got a chance he's only got one Health but if he pushes it he's got one bullet to the Dome on his Zex he takes his shot the bullet flew through the air but it's zipx to clutch it out necessary for aralis and they're off the start absolutely true there Alex that would have been a jawdropping moment if he pulls that one off one HP one bullet in the USP as well there was a chance the F even got the bullet off suggested it was possible decent a here from Perfecto there was a long flank there from devis wi his team went towards ramp he actually came in the backstab there and shuts the round down you can see they just about get through the round but there will be a force SP and response here from na'vi the double Scout setup cz's p250s Bare Bones utility and it's going to be simple looking towards that side position we saw what he can do on Dust do with the Scout tag after tag was landing and he's got such a presence towards outside they got to drop these smokes to make sure they don't get hit they bloom that nade landed in his top pocket device hared before he could even see an enemy all members of aralis are behind the guys of that smoke and boom has one of his own he'll deploy that as soon as he catches a glimpse that's enough drops it off and gets away will they respect the smoke that's the next question it does seem to be the case yeah well play from boage that funnel him back to towards outside allows them to rotate towards lower if they feel it's necessary flamy will join him H in hand that won't do a ton of damage but does suggest there's multiple players down there at this point time ticking away that's what the smoke is designed to do 50 seconds on the clock flamy down there with a scout as well looking to get tags and working tandem with the c next to him you have to remember what boit actually saw was at Max two players he does not know that the entire jiggle and a frag flamy body shot he gets another one he his round in the Flames living quite up to his Nam sake device though with the first for astralis he's hoping to cla a second one it's toi to push the Deon but no issues this Force by is flying for na'vi that's such a sick move from boom as well suggest that he fell back by opening and closing the door they took the bait hook line and sinker a just now to PL the bomb three versus one he's got a Molotov but no head remaining that's going to be a great response from n'i the Scout connects once again it's all down to that smoke towards SEC he spotted it so boom watching the angle trying to slow them down and it just takes the pacing away from australes they have to wait Rec coordinate they go down towards lower and flamy is so brave at that point it's a standard Molotov towards the CT steps and at that point he hits the first and has the audacity to stay around fight for a second it works out and they steal the round away theoretically what happens if all of australas just hold W through that smoke they probably got greeted by CZ and maybe even a couple of kills com through they made the right call it was just a very very good play from Navi there as we'll see the guns come out on the austral side as well Scout tags flying out here it's going to be electronic to pick up the first that's Maes who is trying to cross over towards SEC they have a couple of smokes remaining but now a five on four no real damage inflicted towards na'vi so far electronic flashed in spots another sprays him down no problem assist from simple this Deco or excuse me this deagle by has not gone well and another body drops electronic flashes connect to another [ __ ] long range he's really mastered those little bursts from the MP9 at range he really has I've noticed that all week long every time he has the MP9 he has so much confidence behind it even at range this little three bullet B connecting with their head such a Nuance so much Mobility with the weapon as well and asist don't get anywhere near a bombai has to be the full Eco now could just go for a s of ramp Rush here try and exchange a couple of kills if possible but you're going to be going for the meat grinder at that point you can swing towards outside as well they've got the Scout that does make a lot of sense ideally try and get the bomb down here D got one of the best spawns you can ask for so they want to go for a vent dive but they can't really justify an AG so that's going to be difficult to pull off as they don't invest a single sent into this round we really no armor we really really are seeing players who have started to invest more and more time into the newer weapons of competitive Counter Strike MP9 is a prime example I think you know 2020 we're going to see players really truly uh test the limits of what those weapons are capable of when's the auto sniper coming out Alex uh well I'm happy to see all the SMGs even loving the shotguns but we can leave the auto sniper on the Shelf I'm going to call now I reckon by the end of this year it will start being part of the game it's a very powerful weapon on the CT side that we haven't seen enough of it used to be in fashion back in the day uh but for now though the Scout will have to do most of heavy lifting towards ramp simple swinging in towards ramp lovely shot he'll only get that first kill but what a kill it was it's going to be just D remaining so they get one frag out of this maybe DUI can get a second or take about three Glock head shots at this point boom which keeps farming that money as he'll take himself up to $8,000 four players survive they got a Mac 10 on the CT side at MP9 a bit of a strain drown coming through here simple almost certainly going to buy up the awp considering he went down but 3-1 on the CT side or does come through this was the simple one tap in the USP just wanted to have a little inquisitive look and of course found aice he didn't even have a chance puts the banana right in his mouth indeed time for our fifth round on our second map of our second semi-final here at I IM Kavita 2020 four CS pulled out by the Australis Squad this is the weapon that has changed the tide of n t side but BL me ridiculous Ace five kills 5 seconds and it's the fourth on the board for Nai they Rush towards the ramp we've been saying for years that the gala is useless but flamy shows us how powerful it can be that's a fully equipped astralis rushing towards the tightest choke point on the map and he just mows them all down no problem whatsoever that's what we love to see our na'vi are in fifth gear right now and show no signs of slowing down he can't believe it said what the hell just happen over there I I know I said the call was getting Ace flamy I didn't mean you to do it toly moly this is uh the best looking na'vi I've ever seen in a series like that's nuts like I was expecting a couple of kills there looking good for that considering the smoke was down but all five of Gil your 30 bullets in the magazine of that Weapon It's a-sided gun and he absolutely punishes them with it incredible scenes simple now the orb smoke down that hasn't stopped him before though to be honest with you there we go let's keep going I'm drunk on simple absolutely I'm frag drunk okay tell your friends guys if if you're watching this and if you're making similar noises to me tell them that this could be a quick one and they're going to miss it if they don't show up soon six rounds into nuke and it's already what feels like a sitcom electronic does get tagged up through those doors we are seeing just the limited three members of aralis they're trasting some sort of aggression magic nice little strafe to worm his way towards Deon but bomit he's got his MP9 that's practically an or in his hands to be honest with you that was an exaggeration before you get the angry tweet out no sendi Angry tweets yeah they're good we enjoy them they fuel you yeah yeah keeps me going makes you feel alive well there the MP9 doing its job and triple kill from boom MIT just to ensure that the fifth does get secured and unarmored ziex to be fair though that is a deagle Blaze that's the deagle that tends to fill the highlights I'm telling you that's a good point it's had his moments over the years uh don't think this will be one of them Perfecto still over a Mac 10 of course with $12,000 um I guess why not keep going I would say UPG greated at this point but uh want to keep the money as strong as possible I do see it thrown away he's gone for the M4 nice call um there's only so much fun we can have with that weapon the Mac 10 not super viable in full gun rounds he'll go for the rifle instead they've thrown away another SMG which is absolutely fine like normally I'd say keep onto the money if you can but they they're knocking on the door of 16,000 in a few cases uh so you might as well focus on round victories at this point it's 51 with dust two already under their Bell CT side of nuke this has just been a remarkable day for na'vi honestly Henry imagine this na'vi versus the G2 of today yeah like that would be that would be Madness just seeing that kenes oh my goodness but aalis of course have got a very long road ahead of them this is also the bitter pill of having nuke being one of your strongest Maps you're picking it but you do have to start on that t side very good point especially if you're not feeling it eeve haven't got warmed up like dust two they barely even got to look into that one morale is going to be low the aim's not really there and N just doing the most ridiculous things I I've seen in all my years of casting looking for that Gap in the Smoke simple rattles off a short towards outside he's already been tagged as well down to 58 drops the incend towards the main entrance position they'll cross over now how many players are there it's going to be four leave zipx alone towards ramp and it's the same approach from boom here this time with the smoke in hand again waits for a pixel tries to fall back right click the smoke get it in and it's the same scenario we saw before they can't do much that they have to respect the smoke they have no idea what's on the other side but flaming still hold towards ramp I believe he'll sit at the back and that's where zipx is trying to probe towards now bear in mind they have no idea the numbers towards secret so they can't justify rotating a lot of players down but they have got symbol towards ramp Molly please is there one there is none there isn't this is the Boost we saw FaZe do not going to follow through and instead bomit has no issue dispatching of one dpri a crucial trade puts flamy in a bit of hot water tucked in on Shadow he will be checked but with that smoke actually he's got somewhat of a luxury he can go unchecked until zipx finds him now the round should be aralis yeah looking very good time was running out there looked like na'vi might have done enough with the delay towards secret but a very efficient plant smoke out the double doors and everything was covered it's going to be up to electronic now to try and pull the round back will they be going for this they got so much money and kits available here but no utility great shot from Perfecto they've actually got a chance in this one now this could be it it would be an absolute Haymaker of a round if somehow Nai wins it but looks like Electronics a little bit too far away nice stuff from estral there first signs of life here early here at nuke it's going to be 5-2 overall they won the pistol it's their first gun rounds wasn't the cleanest three players go down but they do save those two CS speaking of which electronic will have his own and still $112,000 to his name 14k for flamy they have got money for days here no time for celebrations just yet asr's got a lot of work to do now but that was a very good round very convincing zipx lurking towards the ramp and taking down those players toward Shadow especially flamy could have been an absolute nuisance for them there yeah he really could those stairs it I always impresses me how many players find success because it's the I mean it is the angle every te has got their Crosshair resting at the crest of those stairs I don't know how anyone finds the multikills that they do but these players are just at the very tippy top of the game they do things that no one else is capable of and that is why you gather and congregate in your hundreds of thousands to witness this Counter Strike history being written the ink still wet in Cavita our second map and it's time to see if aralis can find a second in a row on this T side smokes outside but every time they've thrown them so far Henry they've been behind them four players again same approach I assume zipx on the other side of the map look it is and it's going to be electronic a nice adjustment this time the H grenad going to do a boatload of damage here simple with a flashbang assist as well it's a five verus two they are not slowing down at all just adjusting the setup slightly there secret they have allowed them to go through a few times this time electronic deals with it in true style simple had a two flashbangs lined up ready for his teammate electronic and he's on three he could very well continue to find the last two as well just D PRI and zipx they've got a frag each but three more standing between them and consecutive rounds yeah they've got to fight their way out of this one three flashes between them but they're healthy at least but the time certainly is not 30 seconds on the clock here Perfecto is in such an awkward position to flush out what's their final play here dpri comes in from main entrance he cannot spot Perfecto from there needs to check every single angle oh Perfecto gets this for sure but wait the timing could be great as soon as he fires a shot he's expecting zipx to trade that's something bomb does get retrieved and with 15 seconds left how's this going to look flam is outside electronic lingering oh that's the play that should be a safe plan electronic and flamy to retake he PLS behind the silo remember just one flashbang remaining now he's got to deal with flamy first he doesn't want to overcommit want to make sure he's got his teammate with him looks very good no way zip B can clutch that one out that's very very well done four kills in total for electronic nice adjustment there towards secret been focusing on that area they will do for out that campaign on the TS side they have variations of that approach outside smugs with four players is there General go to sometimes out glaive by himself just to get the information and force those rotations but now na'vi they're the ones in the driving seat another big round from them there was a plan that came through that's an extra $800 per player for the aralis side there's a buy there but it would be compromised 3700 just for glaive but the rest of them have enough for AK armor and smoke and flashes but the thing is we need Molotov on uke it's all about flashing the CTS out and forcing fights a conversation perhaps to have during the timeout as well is that we haven't seen arrus address ramp ever since flamy turned up with a Galil and ripped four Crees out of their hands that can happen you can be dissuaded from a position after an absolutely jawdropping moment you don't want to even go near a player that's peing like that right now as we'll see electronic just absolutely destroy them here four kills in total his Creek it's looking like the most convincing in the tournament so far it's unreal so simple he he said it yesterday he said it today when my team are hitting their shots he keeps bringing that up and I think he truly has this belief in the individual form that we're getting to see now displayed for all of us this individual form is a f man Peak into a semi-final yeah you you can't poke any holes in this historically na'vi have always had that weaknesses a couple of players he a bit of a question mark he didn't have a special day for the team to look well class but he finally does something remember that one but I do I think was that me to I don't remember but yeah someone did say that once um but this is like a very well machine right now everyone's hitting their shots the confidence is just evident in their play style boish now having a little crack towards the secret steps confirms are on deagles at least and now he can reel it in you don't need to challenge let them have outside let them have ramp we just wait patiently over awps and the rifle crossfires simple so active constantly repositioning ensuring that he's not standing still for a second for someone to lay their Crosser on his Dome oh and it pays off drii he just edged himself away from Main and straight into the scope of simple such an incredible two days of Counterstrike we've seen from him for now another frag added to the tally for an RV hot pursuit of their seventh round and with just 30 seconds oh no oh no oh no that's embarrassing glaive he didn't have the bullets and simple will just collect another the round is done but what has that done to the mental shape glaive a seasoned ingame leader Jacob was holding his head on the desk and simples just keeps collecting even with 13 HP most players are just fall back and in the five on one make sure that he stays alive not him though he hits everything and it's going to be 72 here going to close things out in a two fashion they have played estras this year on nuke earlier at London 69 victory for na'vi so I'm not great at Mat Henry but I'm going to have a go go for it I'm ready electronic and flamy with their kills and deaths combined are sitting at 21 and four yes that is quite the nine round start yeah they've gone absolutely nuts you talked about going newa well towards ramp and outside especially towards secet they're delivering on all fronts I can feel the radiation from here it burns especially you're an Arris fan so partial by in the previous round we said they could have P into it but they wanted to have absolutely everything theyve got the device or and now a zipx opening frag through smoke need more of that came from a TM game leader of na'vi taken out of the equation off towards T red electronic though towards CT blue and now they're going to just slow things right down still have a minute on the clock they still have flashbangs only one smoke as a TR to transition towards ramp flam is there with the creek and now if you're a ramp player with this particular weapon you're going to fight you're not going play for one kill you're going to try and get as many as you can Flash gets him but can he deliver oh my God he sure can a double kill from flamy a gorgeous flash I will acknowledge from aralis straight off the box into his face but he moves while doing the dance and simple dancing around the site no and aralis they're showing up they're just getting ripped out of the server dpri Last Man Standing he's wondering where his team has gone simple does not miss standing his ground on the site now he doesn't have to do much more it's just a matter of time look at the discipline as well just running the clock down giving D nothing here but finally he will strike has enough time to get back towards upper bomb on his back two flashbangs in an H but what's the call going to be Perfect's got him there's no way you check this goodbye D very well done once again and I love that from flaming as I mentioned if he had an M4 there I'm almost certain he drops down but he's got the and the multi-kill potential of that weapon the armor penetration it has you can find multiple kills very quickly even after coping a phase full of flashbang he manages to get two kills by time it's simple to get towards lower and this is just speaks for itself you don't need me to explain what's happened there he Nails two fantastic shots they don't even get a chance to deploy their utility towards ler to even enable a plant well to paint the picture of what's happening on the stage in the SPO deck right now 30 seconds for Coach zonic who's been talking to his players about this game for an entire day let's not forget aralis they had the buy they skipped the quarterfinals by in it by it entirety they had a whole day to prepare for two opponents and right now two frags for magisk two for device a single frag for glaive and we are 11 rounds in yeah it's really not looking like the individuals the actual components of this well oiled machine of astralis they look a little faulty we're not seeing their usual Tendencies here it's usually glaive that leads a charge he's getting towards secret he's being a Nuance he hasn't dropped that tactic once yet it's always been the fourman approach towards secret he's not fragging at all and that's not a good sign he is their absolute MVP on this map he's a bit of a master of the outside area as well getting up close and personal Scrappy with the M4 ready to challenge and this is what we want to see this is the solo play Alex so an adjustment here this is what I want to see from him he gets down towards secet he gets information normally good for a frag or two but one and nine right now does he have the confidence to even make these kills land spots the armor boage and that's what it's all designed for he'll let's drop the smoke again and buy some more time call for rotations if required bomit has just got nerves of steal for secret we've seen navi's nuke a couple of times and every single time he can comfortably buy himself what 30 40 seconds he's rely asking for help so this is the classic glaive maneuver force a rotation down towards lower commit to Upper good trades to come through but electronic hasn't missed many shots can play open things up he cannot the one-on-one Jews have just landed in favor of na'vi every single time can check electronic perfect oh backs a turn and he tucks in Perfecto a chance to swing out it's flamy instead to find a frag multi-kill from zipx back turn check boom it they do but magic he's been shut down immediately and so all onto zipx looking to clutch to pull astralis back into the contention here on nuke simple not interested and another round for NV it's starting to really get pulled away from them our analysts they didn't believe lightning could strike twice nuke over at the blast Premier spring it went 69 in favor of Nai and well from London to Cavit it could be happening again remember Asis won the pistol in this half as well they're currently 92 down getting blown out of the water at every choke point on the map nice approach that glaive gets down successfully had the pre-fire towards the vent but flamy had his number once again flies up gets another the money's just looking so strong they' got the all out again a couple of Cs on the CT side but a decent buy for a one compromis in a former glaive who has to take the UMP and an upper Rush potentially here Perfecto on top of the heart ready and waiting oh my God he's just about tucked in the corner he takes two with him not even one and not through the smoke boom has cut magic down to 30 and he finishes it off as well this is just ridiculous a frag movie in a semi-final I don't even need to think there's much editing required Counter Strike Perfection personified at this point I I can't poke a hole in navi's game everything's looking so good but glaive does find an access point towards ramp one minute 20 on the CL has got to go towards lower no smokes and simple ready and waiting for them he does manage to do a little bit of damage but I think that was from his teammate surely they'll get him at this stage but simple closes the door waits for his teammates GLA left to six points of Health just floundering on the bomb side at this point hoping a mistake is made but a whole shot in the door have you heard about un Lord and Savior no okay four players surv for na'vi 102 feel we might be done here already Australis has have no response for the PE form individually especially on the side of na' I've never seen this team play like this what a kind of PE into the tournament Perfecto looked like he was done for fully F making his way towards the Hut but the incendi was down towards the squeaky door and the Hut smoke goes through and he Nails two of them you like that mid spray Crouch as well he just takes his head out of the running for a second and returns and maintains the spray the whole time this is just yeah we're in The Matrix right now or at least one of the teams is a n the double digits found very early on this is the astralis map pick for survival here in cadav a Flawless group stage I will I will mention that australas came into the semi-final without dropping a map two 0 two 0 two 0 all the way through but bear in mind the opposition na'vi have taken down in the path here Team Liquid phze looking like they actually could lift the trophy they keep this form up this is just absolutely remarkable boage no problem this round whatsoever dpri removed up towards outside and now simple test it again and it will be a very convincing and comprehensive victory in round number 13 11 to2 a couple of rounds left for Australis here they took a partial by in the previous to enable them to get the or potentially looking at the scoreboard it paints a bleak picture I'm afraid divides 2 and 13 mes 3 and 13 glaive two and 12 they've got three players that just can't keep up right now they can't land their shots they can't get in position and they can feel this one just falling out of their grasp it's normally a conversation that we find ourselves having in the group stage because we talk about you know if you can't keep up with the the fragging the rest just unfortunately doesn't lose loses its relevance we say that normally at the first two days of a tournament not when we're in the playoffs of Cavit that is the form na'vi have found changing the dialogue completely outside not just glaive this time how has he found another one simple's got his Gunner Optics on yeah this is absolutely wild he keeps finding kills through smoke time and time again up to glaive now and another 1 V one jeel that falls apart simples down towards lower did he teleport down there I have no idea as we'll see it now a five on Two And major skin zipx just drowning at this point they've got no idea what they can do the bomb's Fallen simple ready and waiting for more and more kills here Desert Eagle in hand and you know he's going to have some fun here zipx he'll take control and bring them back a kill simple closing that Gap a little nonchalant flamy yeah that he's having a bit of fun there I tell you that much I think fun it does seem to be the name with the game for na'vi it's all smiles and you don't have to be a rocket scientist to know why I like this from Magis he should have a chance onto boom but immediately he tucks in they are so coordinated and a smile it looks like Christmas morning for simple he pulled out the de like these guys don't even know I'm here let's Okay so he saw him jump over so he did get a visual queue but not many players can hit that shot that's kind of nuts this is what I'm saying he's having a bit of fun here like he definitely could have got a quick kill at that point yeah he's still laughing about it he's like okay guys maybe overstep the mark there as we'll see another astralis timeout exact same scene as dust two before the first half has even finished they've used three of their timeouts and rightly so this has just gone terribly wrong they haven't even turned up to the semi-final they've barely had a sa nuke what are they talking about now are they maybe just using this to to chill out and work out how they can just get one more round they got Gils a lack of utility and one round to post 123 on their map pick it's gotten to the point now you can see it on their faces and I mean you just have to watch the game to understand it that yes two rounds on the tside but it's the way in which these 12 rounds have been acquired it's just been through sheer dominance and there hasn't been any ridiculous clutches in this game how many one on threes or one and fours none of that nonsense this has just been a great team effort across the board no one's dropped off this is a na'vi that that could have world domination ahead of them Perfecto's finding form on the big stage he's looking like himself and so simple the bomb goes down in the open electronic chiming in from SEC it looks like we're all done in this first half 132 written all over the wars of nuke and simple he has full vision of the C4 they've got one smoke a Molly gills to try and fend him off how do you even have the balls to challenge him at this point who will step up to the plate D's feeling confident a glimpse of his quiff on top of Silo electronic with the Clippers in secret he's hitting another one simple you robot will be the double kill but zipx last of all electronic collects a 13 to2 ladies and gentlemen this could be it this could be the next 5 minutes until na'vi secure themselves a spot in the Grand Final we're taking a break and when we come back it's fight or our flight to [Music] Copenhagen [Music] [Music] again [Music] welcome back

Genesis of the ESL Pro Tour it's katav vit baby and it's the semifinals n'i are three rounds away from a chance at the trophy G2 waiting for them on Championship Sunday and now aalis they really have ran out of options and they're running out of steam Henry what can the Danes do on their CT side of their map pick they said they put about 15 hours of prep into this but that notebook has to be thrown out the window now there's nothing you can do to counter the brutal skill that is being displayed by na'vi as to go for a ramp Rush here zipx needs at least a kill here does spot them coming through through decides to fall back safer option no utility on either side here Al quite interesting that means there's no kid available for aralis no smokes get the bomb down lower range Advantage here for a slaugh for sure they need this pistol round desperately there's so many players swarming towards a position though Glocks coming in door Shar and glaive he still wants to be part of this action Perfecto does position himself to maneuver the and it's zipx to stop the plant and V some collects himself a double still hungry and boom managing to hit the first no left just simple thrust into a one versus three and this time no cigar astralis they'll take one coconut for the coconut shy that's the reference it doesn't make sense I promise that's where no close but no cigar comes from is it really yeah if you didn't uh if initially when at the carnivals you'd get a cigar if you hit the coconut have you ever been part of a coconut bit before my time we'll have to ask OJ okay well there we go we we'll look into it Victorian era kind of thing it's not going to be the fourth fight in the second round we're GNA have pd50 one deagle and a couple of smokes objective get the bomb planted if possible couple of kills be very welcome indeed smoke looking like to be a drop here all suggesting that's what they're going for is they focus towards main lots of footsteps though GL will hear them and it looks like a pretty convincing Victory here for australas no kills found just what they needed they can still do this if ever does a map to bring back a 13-2 score line CT side of nuke their pick they can do this they know it as well their temperament looks pretty positive actually and something that we want to keep an eye on is if na'vi fall into any of those traps you were talking about on Dust 2 you know especially considering the amplification of the fact that CT nuke don't fall into rushing it don't feel like you have to force the issue and I'm sure there's plenty of pages on blade strap book to secure those three remaining rounds final timeout for astralis they are discussing their options here because usually we would call this the bonus round this is where you'll keep your MP9 or umps they don't really have that luxury right now they need rounds not money they need to be winning every single one going forward so they've actually thrown away a couple of those SMGs there upgrade device to the awp may just on the or glaive for an M4 so they've had to throw away a couple of weapons there um it's it's not the the most ideal situation but it's the correct one in my opinion they need to win this round up against the rifles of na'vi which they know are coming out the SMG simply wouldn't do and now extra nerve-wracking for zonic put yourself in Danny's shoes cuz he now knows he no longer controls a chance to talk to his team problem with this approach is if you do lose this round no money remaining going forward this is a a very committed gamble sink or swim for astralis good nade who flame is going to be feeling that one for the rest of the round with an aggressive stance in Hut hoping to catch the timing flamy lingering in lobby though so that duel will not be one just yet outside late from na'vi on contact no no smokes just walking towards that red container simple swings wide as well keeping his eyes towards Secret in no rush whatsoever it seems device is desperate to get that Molotov on the call of glaive doesn't have to pay too much of a price for it and now he has his signature weapon in his grasp needs one finds it another opportunity please perfectly flash na'vi supporting once again these flashbangs are getting better and better Magis however we talked about how crucial this was and now australas have found the opening too they didn't anticipate a device awp that's for sure that's why it was such a great call from arral here as I mentioned they need rounds not cash so far so good five on three Perfecto no he can't really draw the or with this G here but does significant damage but device will get his second flamy towards lower bomb his back a plant will be great here boom to cover a five on two they somehow pull this off and there'll be no getting back in you can solo cast the red this one off there's the first kill flamy 47 HP got Ned at the start squeaky nice shot to open things up could get a second here but Ma just all keep things very clean indeed only one kill found for the side of na'vi as I mentioned I don't think they anticipated the or to be brought out so soon good call to upgrade to those rifles means they actually get a lot of money going forward and some t- sided Weaponry as well C and AK picked up for M and zipx 13 to five now they can do this oh for sure terrorists win it's just the only kind of unknown factor is where the astralis astralis mental state is cuz if this is astralis that we we know and love and have seen lift more trophies than anyone else that's more than capable more than within their remit this is the second flash I love that cuz he was about to swing and find bomit but na'vi they're doing all of these protocols that like I've never seen before it's rare to see someone go white uh not be going flash just after their first frag on aralis that's the point I'm trying to make and into Round 19 top site here we go straight up Rush glaive going to be trying to spray them down but they have broken through the initial defense here glaive will just get the one but he's done significant damage towards a second as well two players on the bombs side floor do Navi want to fall back or try and drop down towards events here good H lands but they have got three players down towards a lower bomb site may just will pull one back but look at the damage inflicted there should be absolutely no chance here for na'vi as they start to restructure barely any options here for them zipx will hold towards lower round should be completed here all device he checks it yeah he definitely does right right okay likes he'll take an M4 though that's something for na'vi it still should be a guarantee for astralis but boit has given just a little bit of a Lifeline phone a friend damage done towards magisk every second the passes na' are finding some access points here good smoke towards Deon ziix can now focus on the double doors he's got a great angle here I don't see a world where they can take him out theyve got no utility he will Peak Electronics ready and waiting 30 seconds now this is falling apart he even get the bomb down un contested Dei he's going to have to risk it into the vents and just like that it looks like na'vi could be poised for that 14th dpri he's making a whole lot of noise a Dana elephant descends to Deon no way he's gone down this is it na'vi bomit with a big frag but it was Electronics onto ziix that really started this ball of wool to unravel yeah it looked like he had the perfect spot with 30 seconds there as well I don't think he had to swing into The Double Door position he had to deny that plan and it's na'vi with just Desert Eagles and taking about 300 damage on their rout towards lower that somehow win the round here it's going to be 14 to5 astralis they don't know what the hell just happened to them there it was all going so well the upper rush it led to two earlier stess frags they only had one frag to work with the na'vi side no utility and it's boage tucking himself in the corner device walks past gives him the M4 electronic will pick it up and the rest is history this was the play this was the moment they realized they can get into this round we said device he's going to check it he did but he didn't fully commit to the angle and it cost in the round even with 16 points of Health he out positions D PR and it's going to be 14 to five they're first on the board here in the second second half 3-1 and remember that investment from australes that's going to cost them heavily going forward they still have one strong buy here it's a terrorist timeout if they win this round that's it call it done there'll be no way asral can get 10 rounds in a row with broken economy they know it as well they have to step up right here right now difference going into round number 20 is the simple have the awp they have CS AKs a full array of utility as well astrales will be truly tested here this is it for australes the opportunity to defend their Cavit title defending Champions astralis and they've put all of their eggs into the basket that is round 20 so hold your breath Denmark We're Off to the Races early smoke will extinguish and provide a little bit of a route to play around should they desire electronic considering an adventure towards secret and a molotov in respon from the CTS will make that impossible I need to grab a fork and quickly eat my words yeah it was a little bit too deep there you can see electronic just bouncing around the Flames didn't even take a tick of damage there said device he's not 100% sure a player made it down GLA will be given the responsibility to have a one-on-one duel one of the best rifl in the game right now especially with this weapon in his hand such a presence on the server sneaks his way through cave on the other side first shot comes in it's a beautiful one from electronic doesn't even blink this isn't a sidekick this is a superhero yep another one Electronics got the sight he could be pulling the 15th entirely on his own for his team this is going to change the game plan the bomb likely going to have to go towards ramper bomit just flying through the sky device with his knife out humiliation oh dear a chance now for the remaining two versus three magic or rather magisk is going to be crawling behind them on ramp remember they'll have no cash going forward here it's now a three versus one simple Waits patiently towards main entrance Ma just will have to pull some magic out if he's going to pull this one off he has a kit no utility presence towards Lobby starts the head towards squeaky door needs a quick kill but that will give up his position no one looking towards his Direction right now apart from the big man himself simple swings round fine series Point 15 to5 money in the actual bin for Australis at this point 2 ,000 per player they have to buy I think they have one PA remaining potentially and this is all down to electronic though so much confidence pimp mention on the desk as well when you're in the zone like this there's not many people that can slow him down he's just feeling it no one can challenge him his aim is just off the scale disbelief disbelief from some of the world's best and look at the fire and fury coming out of the na'vi camp they are completely and totally convinced that the Grand Final spot is theirs it's just peanuts mag seven a few smokes they're going to have to do suon aggressive and simple knows it he's already collected one and just four more steps to the Grand finals for na' glaive tickled by the nade oh it's a perfect Molotov glaive now fully committed towards outside and they seem to know it as well piece by piece na'vi are finding this 16th round no problem at all through the Flames debris will Retreat 25 HP call it done and then there it is 16 to five a very convincing two there the best looking na'vi I've ever seen against the world's number one team there they made them look average they made them look foolish at times and it's a team effort as well this wasn't just a simple show every single player on na'vi showed up here in the semi-final 100% he has belief Perfecto this is a stone throw away from his tenure with Simon gaming and now he's stepping into a grand final tomorrow Henry what a beautiful story of young Talent from the CIS region finally finding the right home in na'vi Blade he's the puppet master and all of the strings are golden a great performance there astralis said coming into this one they've done between 15 and 18 hours of prep but there's nothing you can do to prepare yourself for the battering they just received the individual Jewels it was already ENC capitulated in that final round as well we saw electronic helping himself down towards lower hitting every single shot so much awareness they were just one step ahead every single time Alex I've never seen anything like that in all of my
