The veto process saw BetBoom choose Dust2 as their map pick, while MOUZ selected Nuke. BetBoom banned Train, and MOUZ removed Anubis, leaving Mirage as the decider.
The opening map, Dust2, began with MOUZ gaining a 2-0 lead. However, their defense quickly faltered as BetBoom forced a strong comeback to close the first half with a narrow 7-5 advantage. The second half was also a back-and-forth affair, with MOUZ equalizing at 10-10 before taking the match into overtime. In the extra rounds, MOUZ’s Jimi “jimpphat” Salo and Ludvig “Brollan” Brolin led their team to a hard-fought 19-17 victory with destructive performances.
The second map, Nuke, saw BetBoom start strong with a 2-0 lead. The rest of the half was evenly matched, but BetBoom managed to maintain a slight edge, finishing the half with a 7-5 lead. In the second half, the Russian squad dominated, conceding only two rounds to MOUZ as they closed out the game with a 13-7 victory, forcing the decider on Mirage.
On Mirage, BetBoom once again opened with a 2-0 lead, but MOUZ quickly adapted their defense to secure a few rounds. Despite their efforts, however, BetBoom maintained their momentum, ending the first half with yet another 7-5 lead. In the second half, MOUZ put up a commendable fight, but BetBoom’s relentless pressure proved too much for the German team to overcome.
What did BetBoom and MOUZ say?
With Sergey “Ax1Le” Ryhktorov and in-game leader Kirill “Boombl4” Mikhaylov joining the team just days ago, Kirill “Magnojez” Rodnov addressed the limited time his team got for preparation before the tournament began by sharing their routine, saying, “We had around 10 days of practice, putting in 12 hours per day.”
Discussing the changes that his new teammates bring, he mentioned, “We’re not rushing. We’re focusing on good mid-round plays and improving our communication with each other.”
Meanwhile, MOUZ’s Brollan expressed his frustration on X, writing, “Awful last two maps for me, awful game.” He also assured fans, saying that they’ll see them soon in Katowice.
