CRIMSON demolish True Thunder to book Masters #26 Grand-Final spot
The first semi-final at the The Dust2 India - 1XBET Cup Masters #26 presented a matchup between two Indian heavyweights with a shared past, True Thunder and CRIMSON. Despite True Thunder coming in as the higher-ranked team, it was the full-Indian stack of Crimson, consisting of veteran Indian stars, who shone the brightest.
The match kickstarted on Ancient, where the Indian veterans in CRIMSON demolished True Thunder on the T-side to secure an early 8-4 lead. The experience shined through for Crazy_Gamer, who along with the firepower heavy Benzene, managed to take CRIMSON across the line with a 13-6 win. The second map took us to Nuke, where after a tied first half, CRIMSON started to gain momentum on their T side in the second half. This time around, it was EmbeR to join forces with Crazy_Gamer, as both took CRIMSON to solidify a 13-7 win.
Crimson now await the winner of the second semi-final between ScarX and OxinGame Esport to know who they will face in the Masters 26 Grand Final.
