Map results

Dust2

Falcons controlled Dust2 13-5 in a dominant opening map. Senzu's 1.45 series rating was established from the first map, his individual output the primary scoring platform that karrigan's IGL system was built around across the series. The 8-round winning margin reflected a team whose Dust2 preparation gave K27 no competitive surface before Falcons' execution sealed the map.

Ancient

His 1v1 win in a closing round of his debut tournament match reflected a player whose individual composure under the specific pressure of an IGL debut is the highest of any position player in the match. The 5-round CT comeback confirmed karrigan's system was already generating the tactical adaptability that his integration with Falcons' roster was designed to produce from the opening series.
