HellRaisers are the second finalists of the FACEIT G2A Cup, where they will be joining Team LDLC in the grand finals.
In a surprisingly close match in the semi-finals against dAT team, HellRaisers have now secured a spot in the grand finals of the $10,000 CS:GO tournament. Also interesting was that former HellRaisers Dauren "AdreN" Kystaubayev played in the match for dAT.
The match started with HellRaisers pulling in the lead on the first map, de_cache winning the first half 9-6 on their CT side. However, dAT made an impressive comeback and managed to win 10 rounds compared to HellRaisers' 2 on the second half, winning the map 16-11.
The second map was de_nuke, where again HellRaisers pulled ahead on the heavily favoured CT side, winning 10-5. Unfortunately for dAT team, they were unable to make a comeback as in the previous map this time, as HellRaisers took the map 16-10, making the match score tied at 1-1.
HellRaisers scored another impressive victory on de_overpass, where yet again HellRaisers took the lead at 12-3 the first half, eventually securing the third map 16-9 making the score 2-1 in favour of HellRaisers.
However, dAT team created a glimmer of hope for their side as they took on HellRaisers on their best map, de_inferno where they took a staggering 11 rounds on the less favored T side, as they closed off the map 16-6, equalizing the score again at 2-2. This intense BO5 was going to go all the way to the 5th map.
de_mirage was the final and deciding map of the match, where HellRaisers again started on the CT side, taking 12 rounds compared to dAT's 3 (just like overpass). dAT team tried to create a comeback on their CT side after winning the pistol round but HellRaisers' lead was just too far ahead as they took the map and match 16-11 3-2 respectively.
