G2 ease past QB.Fire to advance to Major playoffs

The Frenchmen began the match as Terrorists, picking up the pistol round with a mid execution through boost. That was the start of a dominant run from G2, who won the first gun round thanks to a 1v4 clutch from Kenny "⁠kennyS⁠" Schrub.

It was only eight rounds into the game that Quantum Bellator Fire were able to put a stop to G2, but, after trading rounds with the French squad, they had to deal with an economic reset. 

G2 have secured Legends status for the next Major

However, Nikita "⁠waterfaLLZ⁠" Matveyev's men managed to shut G2 down on a very weak CZ-buy, which they followed up with their another round, their last as Counter-Terrorists.

In the second half, double-kills from Dan "⁠apEX⁠" Madesclaire and Alexandre "⁠bodyy⁠" Pianaro helped G2 secure another pistol. After that, the French side remained in cruise control - picking up four more rounds en-route to an easy 16-4 finish.
