s1mple had a few of his moments, after a quiet game on Inferno. NaVi got their shit together and won 6 rounds out of 7 to make it 15-12. They started the second half by winning 5 in a row to take an 11-9 lead. Heroic had a few aces up their sleeves as well, though. □□□ UNBELIEVABLE! Papatronic and his insane 1v3 clutch! #PGLMajor #navination #CSGO /DeCpHbXneC The pace and tempo control that electronic and b1t can offer to NaVi was the key trick for Boombl4, who used it to perfection. NaVi had a great T half, one that will tempt a lot to download their demos. Yeah, I know that Heroic only managed 6 rounds on their CT side, but without the aforementioned tactics, they’d be looking worse for wear. Heroic were confident in their late-round efficiency, which made these early-round aggressions quite powerful. They constantly looked for information and recognized potentially weak spots to gain advantages, after which they sunk back into their seats and let the round play out. Heroic’s CT side was littered with pushing through smokes and aggressing endlessly. They did extend it in the depths of the jungle against Heroic, saving a little bit of face after that loss on Inferno. They had a 100% win rate on it a 10-map win streak. The second map was NaVi’s pick of Ancient. □ was a beast, btw #PGLMajor /lrTVdtB6Sl Heroic cloesd the map 16-10 after a cadiaN 1v2 clutch. But Heroic persisted and cleared that last hurdle NaVi so famously always wins. It’s a round that lets NaVi get back into a game where they are in a backseat, and 6 months ago, this round would be one of those game-changing, script-flipping ones. It was a round that NaVi is supposed to feed off of. In the 23rd round, everything ended for NaVi when TeSeS pulled out a monstrous 1v2 clutch to break the Ukrainian spirits on Inferno. Heroic kept NaVi guessing their every move, and thanks to great entries and map control, they pushed it to 12-10. NaVi won the pistol and tied up the game at 10-10 soon, but then completely fell apart. They won B in the final round of the first half by overcoming a 3v5 deficit, and it looked like they were here to rumble.īut as it was in the RMR, Heroic were much stronger than other teams on the T side. They put heavy pressure on Banana, caused quick rotations from the CTs, and then won A thanks to great trades from Boombl4. NaVi were 9-4 down, and pushed it to 9-6, by moving a little faster than they usually do, and not faking a lot. Heroic were responding relatively well to NaVi’s gameplay. One of my favorites is getting Banana control, leaving the AWPer on Car, and then stacking four on A. I saw a lot of different “standard” systems Heroic played. NaVi needed Heroic to spread out their players, and hence, they put pressure on both A and Banana constantly to keep the CTs guessing and get them to rotate prematurely. NaVi were moving their pieces a lot because they knew of Heroic’s tendency to gamble stack. The two IGLs were constantly getting into each other’s heads, and it was a genuine treat to watch. Some basic examples are how Heroic instantly stacked 4 on A after losing Banana and a player in it. Whoever watched the game knows how littered it was with mind games and attempts to outsmart the other IGL. He also set up his teammates to go down Mid and peek into Alt Mid. cadiaN constantly peeked down Mid with his Scout or the AWP. Heroic went for some aggressive plays early on in their CT side. NaVi chose to start on the T side, hoping to rack up some round wins on the CT side in the high-pressure late game. Both their T and CT sides were some to be feared, and they showed us exactly that today in front of the crowd. Inferno was Heroic’s playground, and they had already defeated NaVi on it in the RMR.
