Inferno started with GamerLegion in control, jumping to a three-round lead on the T side. G2 attempted to disrupt their momentum but couldn’t stop them from leading 7-5 at halftime. The tides turned in the second half, with G2 mounting a comeback fueled by m0NESY’s aggression. His ability to hunt down saving players and deal economic damage proved crucial in their narrow 13-11 victory on this map.

 

On Nuke, Janusz "Snax" Pogorzelski’s smart calls helped G2 dictate the pace on their T side, securing a 7-5 lead despite dropping two clutches. The second half was a tense back-and-forth, with GamerLegoin desperately searching for a breakthrough. However, G2’s resilience held firm, and they closed out the series 13-9 to lock in their playoff berth.

 

During the post-match broadcast, HeavyGod candidly reflected on G2’s performance, stating that they messed up a lot but ultimately secured the victory with a strong showing.

 

G2 showed flashes of brilliance against paiN and SAW but had concerning moments, including an 11-12 collapse versus The MongolZ and an error-filled match against NAVI. Sloppiness threatened them again against GamerLegion, especially after losing a 5v2 early in the series. However, Ilya "m0NESY" Osipov stepped up with a standout performance, backed by strong offensive play from his teammates. 

 

m0NESY was the undeniable MVP, but the supporting cast delivered as well. Mario "malbsMd" Samayoa’s entry frags, combined with trading from Nemanja "huNter-" Kovač and HeavyGod, gave G2 control in key rounds. After a lackluster IEM Katowice, m0NESY has been a force at ESL Pro League, boasting a 1.47 rating over 11 maps. Other than a slight dip against NAVI, where he has his only negative rate map, he dominated every matchup.

Against GamerLegion, moNESY was at his best, however, delivering impact frags at crucial swing moments to keep G2 in the driver’s seat. With their superstar in top form, G2 heads into the playoffs looking far sharper than they did at the start of the tournament. 

 

They are set to face off against MOUZ in the tournament’s playoffs on March 13.
