Team Solomid at this moment is definitely a number one contender to steal a number one spot at the world rankings from Fnatic. The Danish team showed their supremacy throughout this weekend in Romania, by not dropping a single map. To make it even bigger, they didn't have an easy road as they had to pass through Fnatic, a number one team in the world rankings, but also pass Virtus.pro, a team who has recently improved a lot and is definitely playing one of the best Counter-Strike in the scene.

Coming to the finals from upper bracket, TSM had a map advantage which gave them a big boost. However, even considering that they had a map advantage, it's not excluded that we would still see the same outcome if that wasn't the case. The Danish team had a shaky CT side on the first map, which was de_train, winning only eight rounds and allowing VP to climb up to a big seven rounds of T side. However, TSM showed once again that their T side is really fearless. They literally smashed down VP defense and won this map 16-12. The second map brought the same score, but this time with a bit different scenario. TSM had a very good start on T side winning nine rounds, where when they switched to the CT side VP still fought back, but the farest they could go was twelve rounds.

Prize distribution:
1. Denmark Team Solomid - $40,000
2. Poland Virtus.pro - $20,000
3. Sweden Fnatic - $10,000
4. United States Team Liquid - $5,000
* All teams have received $10,000 for travel expenses.
