mTw claim top spot at The Blast

Danish top tier team mTw claim first place at The Blast by defeating PlayZeek twice on de_inferno in the Grand Final.

The world-class team should be without Jonas "whimp" Svendsen for this tournament, who currently is on vacation. To fill in, mTw pulled in former PlayZeek member Rasmus "FaagaN" Thomsen. A shaky start, sent mTw sent to the lower-bracket as they lost to NS-Gaming in the upper-bracket quarter-final. Ever since dropping into the lower-bracket, mTw wiped out one team after another, to face PlayZeek in the Grand Final.

mTw should see PlayZeek pick de_inferno, with mTw starting as CT. First half ended 8-7, in favor of mTw, where PlayZeek delivered fairly great T play. Things did however not click as CT for PlayZeek, who saw mTw take control of the bomb-spots over and over again, to finish second half 8-2 and 16-9 overall.

Second map should be de_inferno once again, with mTw starting on the defending side once again. This time, mTw clearly learned from their mistakes on the first half, and especially a very hot Danny "zonic" Sørensen, made yet another map in hell for PlayZeek, with 30 kills and 6 deaths, he finished on top of the scoreboard at half time, with mTw leading 14-1.

A lost pistol round and PlayZeek should realize the defeat, mTw picked up second round to win 16-1 overall on second map, 2-0 in maps.
