The action started on Nuke where both teams followed each other in the first half. Lyngby Vikings were off to the best start, winning the pistol round and 2 rounds afterwards.

By halftime, Sinners were up 8-7 and as the teams switched sides, they started to turn up the pace and storm trough the Vikings’ defense on bombsites to secure a 16-12 victory on the opener.

Sinners secured the title on Inferno despite getting a slow start. Lyngby Vikings climbed to an 8-4 lead on T-side, before Sinners started to answer back and take the last three rounds of the first half. Once again in the second half, Sinners got a flying start winning 5 rounds in a row to take the lead 12-8. The Danish-side managed to grab 3 rounds before Sinners closed out the map 16-11 and the series 2-0.
