Map One: Mirage

FaZe 16:4 C9

FaZe looked as though they would easily take the first three rounds with Olofmeister clearing out mid, but C9 battled back and somehow closed out round three to prevent a 3:0 line. This continued to be a theme on Mirage with C9 consistently showing sparks of brilliance, in part due to stellar individual play by Stewie2K (See the MVP section below for more on Stewie.)

C9 gets more bang for their buck during an eco-round vs. a loaded FaZe Clan.

However, these small wins were no match for the dominance of FaZe. Wins for C9 were few and far between for the team that seemed almost frantic at some points.

After leading 11 to 4 at the half, FaZe easily cleaned up on T side to close out Mirage with a 16:4 map victory.
