by Melissa

MOUZ won the PGL Cluj-Napoca CS2 Championship on February 23. As the final, MOUZ played against the powerful new team, the Falcons. The whole match was very exciting, and the audience reacted strongly. In the end, MOUZ defeated the Falcons in the final. MOUZ did not have a smooth journey in the competition. They almost lost to Astralis in the semi-finals, but with their amazing coordination and tactical combat capabilities, they achieved an amazing reversal under pressure. Then in the finals, they prevented the Falcons from winning their first CS2 victory. This victory was hard-won, and it also allowed the audience to see MOUZ’s extremely excellent multiple abilities, and finally win the $400,000 grand prize.

MOUZ’s Road to Victory: Overcoming Doubts and Delivering Under Pressure

Compared to Falcons, MOUZ’s various abilities are not very stable, and its road to the game is not always smooth. Heading into PGL Cluj-Napoca, Brollan’s decision to captain the team was questioned, sparking debate within the CSGO community as to whether he would be able to lead MOUZ well.  However, starting from the semi-finals, the team showed amazing fighting power and ability to withstand pressure, quietly ended these controversies, and finally won the finals. However, Mouz’s victory does not mean that the Falcons are incompetent, and the two teams also had some friendly interactions after the game.

MOUZ’s victory and quality are honed through rigorous practice and willingness to learn from past mistakes. It seems not smooth, but this is precisely an important factor in their success and an important foundation for their subsequent games.

The Semifinal Comeback: MOUZ vs. Astralis

As mentioned before, MOUZ’s road to the competition was not always smooth. In the semi-finals, MOUZ almost missed the finals, but this semi-final match with Astralis was one of the most exciting moments of this tournament. MOUZ narrowly defeated Astralis with a score of 2:1. Astralis’ strength should not be underestimated. In three maps, they almost won two maps. MOUZ turned the game around with a key blow and tactical adjustment at the last moment. It directly allowed them to enter the finals and play against Falcons or Faze.
