MVP: Valdemar "valde" Bjørn Vangså

A very entertaining, close match to watch indeed, however a victor was inevitably selected and said victor was none other than the Danish roster of Heroic. It all kicked off on the CT side for the Danes as they seemingly had very few issues running the defence. The players were focused, rarely letting mistakes slip, which allowed them to propel to an 11:4 finish at half time.

TyLoo were not about to give up and after switching onto the CT side they composed with the aim to win. Rounds went by in favour of the Chinese team, causing the Danes to slightly lose their confidence. Despite the setback, the Danes focused their efforts and grinded the Chinese out in an incredibly close match, scoring 16:13 in conclusion.
