Catastrophic result: Our team falls into the second league

This weekend, our CS:GO team fought in closed qualifiers for advance to The First Tipsport COOL League. Our players left the first Saturday’s match with very nice 2:0, but the second match brought them two losses. They got another chance on Sunday, but even this one didn’t go well. And so it happened that our team ended up in second league.

The team coach Jaroslav “Sank1” Chlumský commented on all the matches:

“We controlled the whole the match against eEriness, and the match against Eclot should have been the same. The beginning wasn’t bad, but the whole problem started after switching sides. We couldn’t set a tempo, and we had issues with finances. Our main sniper Fraged got his AWP only once, and our defense couldn’t adapt to that.

On the second map, our opponent didn’t give us a room to breathe, and we, as a team, couldn’t handle it. Our play was monotonous, very readable, and the opponent made the best of it. That’s why Eclot deserved to advance.”

“The match for everything was against Team Moops. On the first map, we showed that we can handle harder and more tactical maps very well, as we got a 16:5 score.

In the first half of the second map, we got 10 points as a CT. But the terrorist side was problematic for us. Thanks to the great individual performances of our opponents, we lost the map with a score of 16:11.

I want to highlight a few great individual rounds of Pechyn, Valencio, and Fraged during the third, most crucial, map. But as a team, we didn’t show calm and confident game at all. I don’t know it fear got the players, but because of some individual mistakes, we have lost the game in overtime.”

Not all hopes for the first league are lost though. Amazing results from the second league can give our team a way to advance to the elite division of summer split.

“For the whole team, I would like to apologize to all our fans and leadership who we failed. We didn’t meet the expectation they had of the Czech champions. We are very sorry, and we will do everything so it won’t happen again,” finishes Chlumský.
