The last participant for the Grand Final at Global Challenge Dubai has been found as fnatic defeats SK Gaming 2-0 in the semifinal.It was a matter of fnatic finding the play they usually deliver in the playoffs, when facing SK Gaming in the semifinal. SK Gaming had been performing well since their victory in Chengdu, but had a small hiccup yesterday, losing to k23 in the group stage.
It was a very different team fnatic that entered the semifinal and on the other side of the stage, SK Gaming looked really poor. SK Gaming was punished over and over again, starting T on train. First half saw fnatic taking a strong 14-1 lead, with great play from all five individuals.
Moving to nuke, fnatic once again executed a strong T side, as we saw it in Chengdu. A 10-5 score was secured and SK Gaming really had to kick it in to a whole other gear, to turn the match around. No such thing came about, as fnatic with a won pistol-round as CT continued to dominate their countrymen. Taking six straight rounds, fnatic grabbed the second spot in the Grand Final, by finishing off SK Gaming 2-0.
