OG defeated Complexity 2-0 to send them packing from IEM Cologne. After a great CT-side performance, the Nemanja "nexa" Isakovi-led team defeated Mirage 16-11 with a six-round winning run and won Complexity's choice of Overpass 16-12. OG's victory maintains them in the Play-In and prepares them for a game against Apeks on Friday that might decide their fate. As paiN's substitute, Complexity, who was invited to the tournament, finishes last in the Play-In.
The match began on Mirage, where Maciej "F1KU" Miklas' clutching and fragging helped keep the scores tight for a considerable amount of time. The Pole came through once again by holding a 1v1 as the North Americans led 11-10 at that point. Then OG seized the game by the horns, winning 16-11 without dropping a single round.
