Following yesterday's 0-2 loss against NiP Gaming the Danish team SK Gaming seemed to have been reborn when the competition continued earlier this saturday. In a battle of Denmark against Question Mark the players of SK showed absolutely no mercy, totally crushing their fellow Danes with 16-2 on the first map, being Cache.
The game resumed after a short pause for the players and things were getting serious. Question Mark were only one map loss away from being out of the tournament, meanwhile the SK players could focus on completing their upset by saying bye bye to their fellow countrymen. But it didn't go SK's way on Train. Starting as the less favored offensive side they had a hard time getting true Question Mark's defensive lines, leaving the underdog trailing with 2-13 after the first half. Despite of a totally crazy defuse while standing next to an opponent, SK Gaming failed to make a comeback and Question Mark won.
The above results meant that we got our first game playing all three maps, and with that we saw Mirage once again be loaded on to the server. SK Gaming started as the defending team and once again they managed to secure a small lead heading in to the second half. And what an half that was. Question Mark and SK took turns getting a small advantage but the underdogs of SK stod for an impressive performance when they secured their 16th round and with that also a spot in tomorrows consolidation match. This means that Question Mark are out of the tournament, following the loss against Fnatic yesterday and today's surprise loss against their Danish rivals in SK Gaming.
