PENTA complete CCS list

PENTA Sports have qualified for the CCS Kick-off Season after beating AliGon 3-0 in the grand final of the closed qualifier #2.

After FlipSid3 Tactics booked their place in the CCS league via the first closed qualifier by beating HellRaisers 3-1 in the grand final, only one spot in the prestigious $110,000 championship hosted by PGL remained up for grabs.

There were quite a few surprises along the way - the first of which being 3DMAX, who will be in action at ESL One Katowice later this week, stumbling at the first hurdle following a 0-2 defeat against Copenhagen Wolves in the opening round.

dignitas, who had been touted as favourites to reach the final of the qualifier, were surprised in the semi-finals by Swedish mix team AliGon, featuring players like Marcus "⁠Delpan⁠" Larsson, Jerry "⁠xelos⁠" Råberg and Gustav "⁠KAB0M⁠" Runemalm.

PENTA qualify for CCS league 

PENTA Sports, who recently picked up Tobias "⁠Troubley⁠" Tabbert, reached the tournament decider after edging past German rivals myKPV 2-1 and beating CPH Wolves by a 2-0 scoreline.

The grand final used a best-of-five format, and even though all the maps were very close, PENTA Sports' experience and teamplay always prevailed as they ran out 3-0 victors following 16-12 victories on de_cache and de_inferno and a 16-13 win on de_dust2.
