mTw & Na´Vi reach WCG final

mTw and Natus Vincere are the two finalists at WCG 2010, following 2-0 victories over compLexity and Frag eXecutors, respectively.

mTw confirmed their favourite status over compLexity by beating the Brazilian team 2-0, on de_train and de_nuke. The first map was a one-way street for mTw during most of the time, as compLexity could only bother the Danes on two occasions during the first half. With an eleven-round lead at the break, mtw just controlled the tempo as they saw fit, and allowed coL to make a push, which was short-lived, though, as the Scandinavian team picked up a 16-7 victory.

On de_nuke, it was almost the polar opposite, as the ex-FireGamers team were the ones to call the shots in the first half, with every player looking really focused on taking the match to a third map. coL were enjoying a 12-3 advantage at the end of the first half, but when many thought it was a closed case, mTw started collecting rounds, inspired by the support they were getting from fellow countrymen Full-Gaming, and turned the score around to win the map 16-14.

In the other match, Natus Vincere outclassed Frag eXecutors, but they were still made to work hard to get the victory, specially on the first map, de_dust2, where neither side could get over the other, as the scoreboard showed 15-15 after the two halves. As the teams entered overtime, Na´Vi raised the bar, and two 2-1 halves gave them the lead in the tie.

On de_tuscan, Na´Vi were simply far too hot for their opponents to handle, and went into the second half up 10-5. The first four rounds of the second session also went Na´Vi's way, before FX finally managed to respond, winning three rounds in a row. But that was as far as they got, as the Ukrainians won two consecutive rounds to win the map 16-8 and claim an overall 2-0 victory.
