NAVI’s Major win may have seemed like a fluke back in March, but the team is now looking like one of the generational greats, capping another tournament run with a victory after mighty struggles in the playoffs, with a huge comeback on Ancient to score a 3-1 win against MOUZ.

After an impressive display of resilience in the semifinals against Heroic, NAVI had to dig deep once again in the grand final. It may not have seemed like it would come to this considering how Aleksib’s squad raced to a 2-0 lead over MOUZ, courtesy of wins on Inferno and Dust2, with the second being a 13-2 trouncing, but it’s a testament to their young opponents’ mettle that they battled back with a 13-6 win on Mirage and got a monstrous 10-2 CT half on Ancient, which seemed to all but set up a decider on Nuke.
