FaZe Clan and Cloud9, two of the favorites to go far at the PGL Antwerp CS:GO Major, played today in the 1-1 bracket of the Legends Stage. FaZe’s victory sent Cloud9 to a 1-2 bracket, where they are just one series away from elimination, though the map choice for the match seemed to differ from Cloud9’s usual picks.
With both squads among the best in the world, fans and experts alike were expecting an even spectacle. FaZe, however, comfortably picked up a 16-8 victory on Nuke, a map that is almost never picked by their opponents. This was reportedly due to a human mistake during the veto process, according to FaZe in-game leader karrigan.
