Train Rounds

Gods Reign 0 - 2 -72c

A messy affair on Anubis saw Gods Reign get wiped 4-13 by Russian squad -72c and while they started slow on Ancient again, the Indian team's fightback on their CT side had them one round away from the win but -72c pushed it to overtime where they closed the map at 16-13.
