On Mirage, The MongolZ made a solid start and took an early lead. However, an overpeek by Anarbileg "cobrazera" Uuganbayar let MOUZ into the B site, and Dorian "xertioN" Berman's side went on to win 10 of the next 11 rounds. xertioN led the scoreboard for his team.
On Dust2, The MongolZ's surprise pick, the AWP of Usukhbayar "910" Banzragch kept his team in the game early on. MOUZ then took over with a seven-round streak on the offensive side and closed out a 13-6 win.
On Inferno, MOUZ opened with a 9-3 offensive half and finished the map 13-4. "If anyone worked for it and deserved it, it's us," Dennis "sycrone" Nielsen said after the match.
