Coldzera outperformed himself, but it wasn't enough

00Nation struggle against the Europeans

The Brazilians could not pull out an important win against OG.

An Epitacio "TACO" de Melo-less 00Nation faced some early struggles against a Nemanja "⁠nexa⁠" Isaković-less OG in the opening matchup for ESL Pro League Group C. With both teams forced to use replacements for players that were integral to their entire squads, the matchup already was not at the peak of either team's ability.

The matchup began on 00 Nation's pick of Ancient, where the Brazilian struggled to find any sort of offensive momentum in the opening stages. For the squad, they would lose the opening pistol and trail in the half 10-5 when all was said.

It was the second half where Marcelo "Coldzera" David's squad were able to rally, digging exceptionally deep as they rallied and rallied to make the game close. It was looking like it was all wrapped up for OG once the European's reached 15 rounds, but 00 Nation were able to deliver five crucial rounds to bring it to overtime.

However, overtime would not end up so favorable for the Brazilians and despite a concerning loss of composure from the Europeans, they would be the ones to close it out 22-18 and steal away 00 Nation's pick.

On Mirage, the game was entirely about OG as they utterly dominated the first half. The Brazilians were unable to hold off the attack from the Europeans and saw themselves in a deep 13-2 hole before they even had a chance to try attacking the sites themselves.

With the sides switched, there was some hope that the Brazilians could mount a comeback for the game as they slowly chipped away at the lead, but with OG finally winning a round and making the score 14-6, they would go on to win 16-6 and close out the series 2-0.
