Map results

Haven

FURIA took Haven 13-10 in a controlled opening map. alym's sustained individual output gave FURIA the primary carry scoring that their system converted into the 3-round winning margin. dgzin's 30-kill Map 1 performance for EG - his hyper-aggressive Neon entry play - kept EG competitive across Haven before FURIA's collective system closed the map in the second half.

Pearl

EG levelled the series on Pearl 13-11 - dgzin and supamen's combined individual output the foundation of EG's Map 2 win. dgzin posted 323 ACS and a 1.54 series rating while supamen added 314 ACS and a 1.48 rating - the 2 highest individual ACS outputs of any player in the match. Their combined Pearl performance gave EG the series momentum entering the Lotus decider.

Lotus

FURIA dominated the second half of Lotus to close the series 13-8. After a narrow Pearl loss FURIA's tactical reset was complete - alym securing multiple multi-kills in the second half that shut down EG's post-plant attempts before they could generate the round wins their Pearl momentum had suggested was possible. The 5-round winning margin on Lotus confirmed FURIA's collective system depth was more reliable than EG's 2-player individual peak across a full 3-map series.

Standout performances

dgzin posted a 323 ACS and 1.54 rating - the highest individual output of the match and the highest ACS of any player across both Week 2 Day 1 matches. His 30-kill Haven performance was the series standout individual display - a player operating at his ceiling despite finishing on the losing side. His and supamen's combined Pearl output confirmed EG's individual ceiling is competitive against any Group Omega team.

supamen posted a 314 ACS and 1.48 rating - the second highest individual output of the match. The combination of dgzin at 1.54 and supamen at 1.48 gave EG their most dominant 2-player collective performance of the Stage 1 season - but on only 1 of the 3 maps where both players simultaneously reached that ceiling.

alym posted a 253 ACS and 1.16 rating - his Lotus multi-kill sequences the individual decisive contribution that closed the decider. His ability to generate multi-kills in EG's post-plant windows was the tactical standout of Map 3 - shutting down EG's primary round-winning pattern before they could convert their Pearl momentum into a series win.
