Titan, C9 sent packing at ESEA

iBUYPOWER and Denial advance to the lower bracket final at ESEA Invite S17 Finals after knocking out Titan and Cloud9, respectively.

Cloud9 were tested early by Denial, who found themselves leading in the second half as counter-terrorists on de_inferno. C9 gained a 14-12 lead, but fell apart at the end.

In overtime Denial, led by Shahzeb "⁠ShahZaM⁠" Khan, were able to quickly take down Jordan "⁠n0thing⁠" Gilbert's Cloud9 with a 4-1 score, thus giving them a 1-0 lead in the series.

Denial upset Cloud9 at ESEA 

Second map de_mirage, despite being Cloud9's pick, didn't go much better. Sean "⁠seang@res⁠" Gares's squad scored seven terrorist rounds, but struggled on defense.

Damian "⁠daps⁠" Steele and company ran up a 15-12 lead in the second half, but seang@res's heroics in a one-on-two allowed C9 to get within one round, before Denial knocked them out. ESEA Invite Season 17 Global FinalsBest of 3 Cloud9Matchpage 0 2 7th December 2014 Denial 16Inferno 19 14Mirage 16

Meanwhile Titan, playing with coach Jeremy "⁠ioRek⁠" Vuillermet as a stand-in, took on iBUYPOWER. Kenny "⁠kennyS⁠" Schrub strong play powered the French on de_cache, and they won 16-11.

Titan's map of choice, de_season, backfired and allowed Braxton "⁠swag⁠" Pierce's iBUYPOWER to tie the series at one, as the North American side cruised to a 16-10 win.

Titan are eliminated by iBP in 5-6th place 

Final map in the series was de_inferno, where the North Americans had a fairly poor defensive half, narrowly winning 8-7. However, strong terrorist play made up for it, and they went into overtime.

Titan won the first round in overtime, but then iBUYPOWER stepped their game up a notch, and led by Tyler "⁠Skadoodle⁠" Latham's AWP, won four straight rounds to win 2-1 overall.
