By: Alex Nguyen - Published October 18, 2008 at 6:53 PM EDT - Writer Archive
Two huge rival American powerhouses, EG.usa and Gravitas Gaming, face off in round 1 of the upper brackets on Dust2.


First Half: EG.usa vs GG...5-2 for GG as they have T side on dust2

Round 8: I came in mid-match, but apparently there was a pause. Benhui ran out of sound when they had a 4-1 lead and he had 10k money..but they only made him reconnect with 800$ without resetting. This round, GG does a 3-2 split to 2v2 situation as they plant bomb for catwalk. Impulsive going towards cat as patyojon gets killed from Long and impulsive gets frag from catwalk. GFN yells that it's the second 2v2 they lose.."Pick it up and win the rest guys". (5-3 GG)

Round 9: GG works 3 long and 2 mid to split A at the beginning. They flash long and Patyojon gets the opener onto n0thing at long. They now have mehler and benhui pushing up catwalk followed by gfn. They spot Che naz and nepo already rotating. Exchange of kills as we have a 2v2 now. Bomb planted for cat as they are both at long ramp. Mehler gets a nice shot on nepo and Ben gets the HS on hostile at CT ramp. Score is now 6-3 for GG.

Round 10: GG plays it slow as they drop dark spot and then push cat. Che tries to aggro cat then hostile aggros mid as they both get picked off followed by naz at mid. Save round for EG. 3v1 now and Gravitas gets the easy win.

Round 11: Another split 3-2 at long a as mehler is trying to awp long, he frags goose (n0thing). Patyojon drops 2 on the CT ramp as he gets picked by a 3rd on ct ramp. Mehler quickscopes him and we have a 3v1. Hostile tries to save his gun B and he is able to against gfn and benhui. (8-3 for GG)

Round 12: Bomb walking B (patyojon with 3 more teamates, goodfornothing playing mid and he loses his AK to a save round from EG.usa. Mehler spots a CT in T spawn from outside the B ramp through his scope and he goes to chase him down. GG is falling back to A as mehler is still at the point on the rotation. 36 seconds left as naz with the AK drops two at the long A double doors as we try to commit towards that area, but mehler owns them both (nepo and hostile with usp). Now at a 2v1 advantage for EG as Che gets the last kill. ECO COBRA HISSSS..Gravitas should of kept going B for EG rotated all the way back to Long from cat. (8-4 for GG)

Round 13: (Sounds like EG.ca just won pistol round on T side). Split from GG into A as Mehler gets a frag ..4v2 situation as mehler plants bomb for cat. Enemy spotted in spawn. gfn then drops hostile..nothing trying to save at mid doors. EG saves, round goes to GG, we have a 9-4 score now in favor of Gravitas Gaming.

Round 14: Another split for GG towards A as EG.usa is on a save round.Easy win. (10-4 GG)

Round 15: Split at A with gfn by himself in B tunnels. Impulsive and Patyojon drops two at long as EG tried to play aggro. Benhui then gets a kill at mid as they get the easy plant in A for long (courtesy of Patyojon). Hostile spotted at CT spawn and Patyojon picks him off.
