9Z stays alive in the Major

9z won their latest match in Americas RMR to keep the hope of Major alive. They would be part of the decider bracket now and hope to book a spot at the Major. FURIA on the other hand took down MIBR to grab the Legends stage spot. The tournament moves to the fifth round of the Swiss system and 9z would now face the winners of paiN versus Case and Evil Geniuses versus Party Astronauts.

Andrei "arT" Piovezan-led team made it all the way through the entire tournament without losing a map. Sao Caetano and 9z first clashed on Mirage and with the 16-13 scoreline on Ancient both teams were more successful on their CT sides. 9z ended up taking the map once more by 16-9, to win the series by 2-0.
