In the past few months, G2 have experienced both great success and huge disappointment. They managed to edge out the #1 team in the world at the time, Luminosity Gaming, at the ECS Season 1 Finals in an unprecedented 2-0 scoreline that saw them collect the grand prize of $250,000. More recently, G2 was drawn into the “group of death” with Fnatic, FaZe, and SK Gaming at ESL One Cologne and failed to advance out of the group and they were knocked out of ELEGUE Season 1 by Mousesports.
