Heroic beat Kinguin to win Games Clash Masters

The $90,000 tournament in Gdynia, Poland has been brought to an end with HEROIC defeating Kinguin 2-1 in the grand final (16-9 Train, 3-16 Mirage, 16-7 Nuke).

The first map of the grand final took place on Train, the map pick of Wiktor "⁠TaZ⁠" Wojtas's squad. HEROIC won the CT pistol and reset the Terrorists twice in the early stages on to set themselves up for a great start to the game, 7-2. Jacek "⁠MINISE⁠" Jeziak finding the opening on Daniel "⁠mertz⁠" Mertz in round 13 got Kinguin another gun round, but they still only managed to finish with four for the half.

Mikołaj "⁠mouz⁠" Karolewski's double entry helped Kinguin win the second pistol and the Polish side managed to close down the gap to 11-8 on the defensive side. That is when Asger "⁠AcilioN⁠" Larsen won a round for his side on an eco, allowing HEROIC to close out the map shortly, 16-9.

Heroic will take home the $50,000 cheque

The early game on Mirage was all about Kinguin who started furiously, 5-1, with mouz having 10 kills at that point. HEROIC were 8-1 down when they found themselves in a 3v3 A site retake, but were unable to pull it off as Karol "⁠rallen⁠" Rodowicz flanked them through CT Spawn. However, the Danish-Swedish squad found success in the followup, with just pistols, to add their second round to the board.

Kinguin still finished the half with a massive lead, 12-3, and then Paweł "⁠reatz⁠" Jańczak added to it by nailing three headshots on the A site defense in the pistol. With that, the Poles had no issues closing out the map, 16-3, and forcing the decider map Nuke.

On the last map, Kinguin won the T pistol but HEROIC instantly replied, stacking Ramp and eliminating their opposition with a strong crossfire. The Poles managed to win a force buy themselves soon, but HEROIC managed to preserve their economy and bounce back, taking an 8-2 lead. Before the end of the half, Kinguin mustered a couple of rounds with limited buys to finish the half with just a three-round deficit (9-6).

After the switch, HEROIC put themselves into the position to win the match by grabbing the pistol, the followups, and an early gun round (14-7). After that furious start to the second half, Kinguin couldn't contain AcilioN and co., and ended up losing the map after winning just one CT round, 16-7.
