TheMongolz make G2 toil
After a wobbly start on the CT-side of Inferno, G2 ride off of star performances from huNter, m0NESY and jks combined with HooXi's brilliant T-side calling, to close out their opening match 16-11, edging out TheMongolz.
TheMongolz got off to a great start on their T-side with hasteka opening up sites, often surprising G2 with his positioning. G2 kept their heads above the water, as m0NESY and huNter fought back to end the half 6-9, in favor of TheMongolz.
G2's T-side was formidable, with the trio of huNter, m0NESY and jks outperforming TheMongolz. huNter finished the match with an impressive HLTV rating of 1.70 and 119 ADR, racking up 28 frags, alongside m0NESY and jks with HLTV ratings of 1.47 and 1.30.
