in #csgo5 years ago

One of the biggest CSGO tournaments of the year with a $1 M prize pool is coming to an end with the final today.

A very new Finnish team faced NaVi yesterday, team with arguably the best player in the world and against the odds beat them 2 to 1 in a very close match. Even though s1mple was having a really great game it was not enough to carry his team to the victory and the Finns determination and teamwork brought them to the final.

Here is a highlight reel of the last map Mirage:

Today they are playing versus Astralis who are ranked first in the world by a long shot. The whole community over at r/globaloffensive are of course on the underdogs side this tournament and really want them to win.

The game starts in 15 minutes from this post in case you are interested to check out what this whole Counter Strike Global Offensive is or why Esports is becoming such a big deal in this day and age. As someone who has been a football fan for a long time I can tell you they can not be compared but are just as entertaining to watch. :)

GO ENCE! :D

Oh how, I didn't care that you love Counter Strike. Cool bro, cheer for a beautiful game!

I do not like the Astralis team like many others, I really want to want them to lose and go home as much as possible, every major they are in the final.

I love old school players like Forest, Neo, Get Right, Spawn, Zonix, Pasha Biceps, Allu :)

It's freakin awesome!

Unfortunately, I had plans for today and couldn't watch live, but I was rooting for ENCE, such a beautiful story from a team that was formed so recently and is showing that the youngsters will have a word to say in the next years to come.

Nice! I was just trying to find what to watch from my bed before my job. I'm really interested to see how this looks like.

Are finals also best of 3?

Yeah think so, would've hoped it be a longer final.

it will be interesting. I'm ready to spam #steem #blockchain in chat xD

why are there 6 of them? They got a substitute? xD

that was intense!

Myeaah, it was kinda clear after the loss on train that it's almost impossible to beat astralis at inferno. but gg for getting to the final anyway!

$1 Million?
That's huge.

NaVi ? Wow that's a new one and with that kinda prize money, I'll say their determination got bigger and better
