BIG is there, the second Canadian team is not: Mouz missed the qualification for the upcoming "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" major at the regional tournament with a defeat against Team Vitality.
"It's hard and I'm more than sad. I didn't perform as well as I wanted to," Mouz newcomer Jon "JDC" de Castro wrote on Twitter. "It was only my debut, but I wanted so much more.»
With the JDC promoted from the Academy team, Mouz competed with a German player for the first time since 2017. However, the Hamburg organization took the short cut against Vitality and lost a close duel with 1:2 (16:13; 11:16; 13:16).
Saw narrowly missed a surprise. At the match point of the Portuguese Outsiders only managed to defuse the bomb by a fraction of a second in the last round, and prevailed in extra time.
Eternal Fire led by ex-BIG player Ismailcan "XANTARES" Dörtkardeş also made it to the Major, which takes place in Antwerp, Belgium, in May, and eliminated two bigger names on the way there with Fnatic and finally OG.
