On Mirage, BC.Game built an early lead before their offense slowed. ENCE converted the pistol after the side swap and led 11-6. Ayush ‘mzinho’ Batbold and Azbayar ‘Senzu’ Munkhbold generated key rounds on defense that closed the map 13-11 for BC.Game.

Nuke featured multiple momentum shifts. BC.Game recovered from an early deficit to lead 7-5 at halftime and extended that lead after a pistol and conversion. ENCE fought back to force overtime after trailing 9-12. In extra rounds, Oleksandr ‘s1mple’ Kostyliev produced an AK-47 four-kill and a 1v3, and Denis ‘electroNic’ Sharipov completed a 1v2 two rounds later, sealing the 16-13 map win.
