North advances to semifinals over Immortals
The series began on Inferno, and North took no time in taking control of the half, dominating the CT side for a 12-3 scoreline. Powered by Valdemar “valde” Bjørn Vangså and Philip “aizy” Aistrup, North didn’t give Immortals much of a chance, as they closed out the game fairly quickly despite the best efforts of Vito “kNgV-” Giuseppe, who has curiously become Immortals’ best player as of late.
The second map Mirage was a tight game from the get go. North had a better than average T side, gaining 7 rounds, and quickly hit 14 once the second half started, but thanks to a big performance from kNgV- again, Immortals went on a 7-1 streak to force overtime. However, aizy and Kristian “k0nfig” Wienecke put their foot down and led North to a 19-17 victory on their own map pick.
North will now face Gambit in the semifinals, who just beat Astralis earlier, for a spot in the finals later tomorrow.
