Heroic dismantle SAW, Falcons move to 1

HEROIC were yet another favorite to look in superb form as they destroyed the Portuguese side on Nuke.

Falcons and HEROIC picked up opening victories against K23 and SAW without issues, with upsets still hard to come by for the underdogs at the European RMR.

Ali "⁠hAdji⁠" Haïnouss was the difference maker for Falcons on Dust2, with the 26-year-old having a 13-4 K-D on the offensive side. On Nuke, it was Rasmus "⁠sjuush⁠" Beck who provided six multi-kills to give his team a convincing win against the Portuguese side. Falcons and HEROIC now advance to the 1-0 pool of the tournament, with their next set of matches being played on Wednesday.

The opening half of Dust2 between Falcons and K23 was incredibly close, with the teams engaging in a back-and-forth battle that ended with just a one-round difference at the interval. The CIS squad had Bogdan "⁠xsepower⁠" Chernikov to thank for saving them with a 1vs2 clutch when the scoreboard read 4-5, keeping them in the game with his play.

Falcons completely switched the game's momentum after switching to the Terrorist side, finding inroads into the K23 defense and taking firm control of the economy. They lost just one round in the entire half to close out the game 16-9.
