The German organization dropped only one map during the entire qualifier, with Sashi taking Inferno 13-9 between BIG\u2019s victories on Cache and Ancient.<\/p>\n
Gleb \u201cgr1ks\u201d Gazin was the driving force behind their run. The young AWPer finished the tournament with an impressive 1.58 rating and was the highest-rated player on the server in six of BIG\u2019s eleven maps. Sashi still leave Paris with several valuable victories, including an elimination win over Virtus.pro, but BIG ultimately proved too strong in the decisive series.<\/p>\n
