Natus Vincere got the better of TSM on three maps 2-1 (de_inferno 11-16, de_dust2 19-15, de_overpass 16-11) to advance to the upper semi-finals, where they will meet EnVyUs later today.

Na`Vi started off on TSM's pick, which was the usual de_inferno, since the now Ukrainian-Russian-Slovakian mixture rarely plays de_nuke, the other go-to map for the Danes.

Nicolai "⁠device⁠" Reedtz turned up in great form for the first map and as Na`Vi failed to deliver on their Counter-Terrorists side, losing 7-8, TSM turned the map into a fairly comfortable 1-0 map lead at 16-11.

flamie's LAN debut with Na`Vi was a success

de_dust2 then followed, and with a solid 9-6 Terrorists half, Na`Vi looked too strong to be stopped from tying up at 1-1, but stopped they were thanks to brilliant play from Peter "⁠dupreeh⁠" Rasmussen towards the end of the standard setting.

Egor "⁠flamie⁠" Vasilyev had something else to say on the matter though, as he helped his team get back and take the game into overtime with a game-changing triple deagle headshot, where his new team stormed onto map three, de_overpass, with a 4-0 scoreline.

Nobody really stood out from Natus Vincere there, maybe except for a round here and there by Ladislav "⁠GuardiaN⁠" Kovács, but their cohesive play and countless clutches on the Counter-Terrorists side helped them get a 16-11 win and get to meet EnVyUs in the upper bracket semi-final, scheduled for 20:00
