The Brazilians of MIBR claimed their rightful spot in the playoffs by going the distance with NRG in three maps. After winning Overpass and losing Inferno, Gabriel “FalleN” Toledo and co. were down 10-5 at halftime of Mirage. But they came back on the CT side, taking home the series in overtime at 19-16. Marcelo “coldzera” David stole the show on Mirage, sealing 33 frags by the end of the overtime showdown.

In the second winners’ match of the day, Mouz stunned Na’Vi with two one-sided scorelines on Nuke and Train. Each of the European stars outfragged the CIS powerhouse, with the exception of their star player Oleksandr “S1mple” Kostyliev, who had a relatively quiet series.
