A couple of late rounds on their CT side made sure TYLOO kept 3DMAX's lead on their pick of Nuke to two and despite picking up both pistols and converting against their T side pistol win, TYLOO were unable to close Nuke. Impactful multi-kill rounds from bodyy saw 3DMAX close their pick with a string of six rounds to seal a 13-8 win. The Chinese team headed to Overpass to tie up the series and Jee's AWP took control as TYLOO's incredible CT half, despite being 4-8 down saw them go 13-9 with Jee on top of the scoreboard with 20 kills.

After a near flawless CT half to tie up the series on Overpass, TYLOO went missing on the decider as the French squad ran all over them to take a dominant 13-3 win to pick up the series 2-1. While 3DMAX moves into the final of the Perfect World CS Challenge Series 1, TYLOO aren't out yet, as they have dropped to the lower bracket and await the winner of the lower bracket final.
