MIBR was victorious against eUnited as they beat them 2-0 last night. This win ensures that the Brazilians now advance to the finals of the fourth week of ECS Season 7. The two sides competed on Mirage, Nuke and Inferno with the scoreboard showing 16-6, 4-16 and 16-14 in favor of the side led by Gabriel “FalleN” Toledo.

Game 1
The first map played was MIBR’s choice and it was Mirage. The Brazilians started from the CT side and, despite winning the round pistol, struggled early in the first half. Marcelo “coldzera” David got four kills in a single round and was decisive for the good performance of the team in the later stage of the half. MIBR went into the break with 10-5 lead on the board. FalleN made a good 1v2 clutch in the second half and continued to win his duels. His clinical performance sealed the 16-6 victory for his team.

Game 2
The second map of the best of three series was Nuke and it was picked by eUnited. John “felps” Vasconcellos secured the round pistol with a clutch 1v3, starting on the TR side. However, this initial advantage did not do much for the Brazilians, who were soon hit by a solid defence from the NA team. Heading into the half time, eUnited had a solid 12-3 lead. On the CT side, MIBR again won the pistol round and showed signs of a combing by winning some rounds back to back. Yet it was not enough since eUnited slowly but steadily got the 16 round win on the board. The series was now tied 1-1.
