AGO have defeated Luminosity (16-11 on Dust2) to advance to the playoffs at DreamHack Open Montreal 2018 in the Group B winners' match.
The second group winners' match began with AGO coming out the brighter of the two sides, claiming the T pistol and the following anti-ecos for a slated 3-0 start. The two sides then went back and forth, with the Brazilians picking up two rounds either side of a round by AGO, but the Poles fired back with three in a row to make it 7-2.
A triple-kill from Gustavo "yel" Knittel sparked life back in the Luminosity's defense before Tomasz "phr" Wójcik and co. picked up the three remaining rounds of the half to secure a 10-5 score at halftime.
The second half saw a flawless pistol come from the Polish side before they secured both anti-ecos for a 13-5 lead. The Brazilians then finally got on the board, and they kept the ball rolling, cutting the deficit to 10-13. A 1v2 clutch from Grzegorz "SZPERO" Dziamałek then earned AGO their 14th of the game, eventually paving the way for the team to hit match point.
Luminosity would not go down without a fight, and fought back to keep their hopes alive with one more on the board, but AGO quickly shut the door to secure a 16-11 map victory and earn a ticket to the playoffs in Montreal.
