European team ENCE defeated the German BIG, thus guaranteeing a place at the Legends stage. Thanks to the efforts of Marco "Snappi" Pfeiffer and Pavel "dycha" Dykhi ENCE was able to regain the advantage after losing to Dust2 and finished the match with a score of 2 – 1. In the previous days of the major, she won twice (playing against GODSENT and MOUZ) and suffered one defeat (from FaZe). BIG also has a chance to advance further, albeit small: to do this, she will need to win the last remaining match, which will take place on Friday.
At first, the match started well for ENCE: it started the Dust2 rally by winning several rounds in a row. However, BIG soon managed to shift the balance of power in its favor, and after switching sides, the German team dominated. As a result, the victory at Dust2 went to BIG with a score of 16 – 10. The next map was Mirage, and on it BIG's advantage did not last long. Although at first the German e-sportsmen won four rounds in a row, by the middle of the game ENCE was already leading, and the final score was 16 – 8 in her favor. Thus, the map on which the fate of the match was decided was Nuke. Although at some moments BIG showed a good game, it failed to build a stable defense, and in the end the victory on this map and in the entire match went to ENCE.
