NiP takes ASUS ROG Winter in finals 2-0

Ninjas in Pyjamas takes ASUS ROG Winter title after beating Titan in the finals 2-0.

The grand final match started with a spotlight on kennyS and Maikelele. With the first round being totally under control of NiP, on de_dust2 they managed to take B bombsite and to plant the bomb. kennyS was in a 1v3 position; he managed to drop two of the remaining NiP players with two quick headshots, but friberg managed to shut him down and win for the 1-0. NiP continued winning the rounds, and while Titan won the first full buy round for 3-1, NiP shut them down in the subsequent round. The 12-3 in NiP's favor speaks enough how underperforming CT side Titan had, however, in second half NiP won pistol round once again and got their foothold in the second half. Titan managed to win 2 more rounds before NiP took the first map of this best of three series.

The second map started with NiP taking the pistol round once again, but Titan quickly returned by winning the next round making it 1-1. Already then we could see that Titan will have a strong half at T side by the way they executed their strats. The French team had 9-6 lead after the first half on de_cache at T side. This was looking like their map to win, however NiP wouldn't be NiP if they couldn't pull out some insane comeback. Led by strong AWPing from Maikelele, who was performing well throughout the whole tournament, NiP managed to take this map with 16-14, winning the tournament 2-0
