The MongolZ send BIG home
The lone Asian representatives at the ESL Pro League Season 20 Playoffs, The MongolZ, started their campaign in the playoffs against BIG in a BO3 encounter, which kicked off on their pick of Ancient.
Time denied Techno a 1v3 to kick off Ancient and it was a four round lead for BIG to get things underway. The MongolZ answered back with eight rounds in a row to end a strong half but the Germans turned it around on their T side as it was a final round quad kill on the MAC-10 from tabseN that pushed the map to overtime. Krimbo with the late impact in overtime saw BIG steal a 22-19 win to draw first blood in the series.
Techno and Senzu made sure The MongolZ started Nuke on a strong note, once again taking an 8-4 lead. Like the opening map, BIG fought back once again, this time on their CT half but The MongolZ held on for a 13-11 win. The decider on Mirage saw crucial clutches from bLitz and 910 which propelled them to a 9-3 lead on their T side and they closed it out at 13-9 to reverse sweep the series and knock BIG out from the ESL Pro League Season 20.
The MongolZ will take on Eternal Fire next in their Ro12 game at the Playoffs.
