After that came Dust2, where Echo Fox were simply far too hot to handle as they took a 12-3 lead after a fantastic display on the CT side.

After switching sides, Na`Vi started grinding out rounds and even reduced the deficit to two rounds, but then they were caught off-guard by an eco round from the North Americans, who went on to add the next two rounds to pick up a surprising victory.
