First playoff match! A CRITICAL WIN!

[Ari]

Last article was about entering playoffs. This one , is about storming them! Sunday , 10h30 east , we had our first playoff match. Let me remind you guys , it was against the #2 seed & we were #15. Before the match , we said , no matter what happens we will just keep our head high.

Match started off with a 1-0 ( thanks to jayy pulling a 4 kill to secure the pistol round ). Then it went 2-0 , and BAM!. We lost the 3rd round. making it 2-1. Then we lost the next one , and the other round. making it 2-3. Things were looking grim for us.

I said , its a game , keep your head high & play at our best. We are better losing trying than whining. It was 2-4 , then we started securing rounds till it was 10-4. Lost the last round due to a miss communication.

Second half started , i was in a 1v3 situation , killed 2 & couldn't finish the 3rd one to secure the 2nd pistol round ( he had 9 hp left !!! ). We were exchanging rounds , we would win 1 , lose 1 etc.. Till we won the match 16-11!

Now this victory secures us top 8 at least. If we get the next one , its top 6 , then top 4 , top 2 & winner!. Its also double elimination.
