CLG won the knife round and decided to start on CT side, while Luminosity had to look for a chance on a less favored T side. In the pistol round we saw an execution of B rush where after a lot of trade kills Luminosity won in the end. However, CLG went for a force buy and reltuC made a triple kill with his five seven to bring it back to 1-1. From this moment on, CLG took full control of this half, scoring six consecutive rounds before Luminosity coould actually get themselves once again on board. The second half was a hard task for Luminosity as they were moving on to CT side with the 9 rounds deficit, 3-12. CLG won the second pistol round, but Luminosity replied in the next round the same way CLG did in the first half. But, 16-5 was the farest Luminosity could go on de_mirage.

On the second map we could see once again a very strong CT side of CLG. This time they were led by hazed who was showing very exceptional performance by top fragging and making it a really hard for Luminosity to grab any chance in this match. After the first half CLG had 11-4 and they were moving on to T side of de_dust2. The second half started off very well for Luminosity as they took a three consecutive rounds. However, as the big guns came the standings on the map changed really quick. CLG stopped Luminosity from building up any kind of momentum and preventing the comeback and they just snowballed to 16-8.

CLG will now wait for the loser of Virtus.pro vs Mousesports, while next to follow is the lower bracket match between Nihilum Gaming and Cloud9.
