G2 narrowly clinched a 2:1 victory over Heroic thanks to an exceptional performance by m0NESY, who displayed an outstanding individual series. As the defending champions, G2 found themselves heavily reliant on m0NESY’s impressive 90-41 performance across the three maps to secure their win.
m0NESY’s standout performance may position him as a strong contender against ZywOo, but G2 will need a collective effort to reclaim their Katowice crown when they face the resurgent ENCE in their next match.
