Nuturn struggled against the Fnatic in the first set. Despite both teams having excellent track records on this map, Nuturn gave the lead by allowing eight rounds in the first half of the bind. Fnatic’s Star performer Jake Howlett’s blazing gun skill in the second half of the 21st round gave Fnatic a set of 13 to 8.

Nuturn Gaming was defeated in the first set against Fnatic. However, for the second set, they overwhelmed Fnatic in the map they chose, Ascent, and led the game to the third set. The Korean team who usually showed strength in Ascent, raised the atmosphere by winning the pistol round as soon as it started. Despite an incredible clutch by Derke and his 25 kills, NUTURN won 13-8 to force a third map.

In the last 3rd set Nuturn lost in Haven and failed to advance to the finals. The squad was relatively weak in Haven, engaged in close combat in the early stages, but soon allowed Fnatic to lead. In the end, Nuturn, who could not catch up with Fnatic until the end, lost 8 to 13 and swallowed up regret.
FINALISTS!! 🎉
