Luminosity Gaming have secured the first spot in the ECS Season 1 Finals last-four stage after edging out Team Liquid 16-12 on Train.

The match began with Luminosity taking the pistol round and the following anti-ecos to start off the game with a 3-0 lead. Liquid then responded in the first gun round, thanks in no small part to Josh "⁠jdm64⁠" Marzano's double kill, but their economy was left in shambles right after as the Brazilians rallied back.

Down 1-6, Liquid were able to get a second round on the board, with jdm64 once again getting crucial kills. That win eventually turned into a streak, but just when Liquid were about to close the gap, Luminosity found their feet again and ran away with the lead, ending the half with 10 rounds.

The second half followed the same pattern of the first, with Luminosity securing the pistol round with ease. A third-round buy from Liquid proved successful thanks to a quad kill from Jonathan "⁠EliGE⁠" Jablonowski, and it initiated a great spell from the North Americans, who hit double digits.

Liquid went on to reduce the deficit to just two rounds as they continuously punished Luminosity, who struggled to get their economy in order. But as the threat of overtime loomed, the Brazilians reached match point, with Marcelo "⁠coldzera⁠" David hammering the final nail in Liquid's coffin with an ace.

Where does s1mple go after Liquid start to play with Pimp instead of him? Imagine -Spiidi +s1mple - 2 toxic players in one team, then -denis +Troubley and mouz will kill each other after their first official match. Btw I'd rather pick tarik than Pimp... Pimp would fit dignitas better.

nice

People that think S1mple is not a good player in 2016 4Head. His personality is the only thing keeping him from being a top 10 player.

Instead of vetoing dust2, Liquid should've vetoed coldzera.

Do ameritards realize LG is an NA org?

2016-06-24 17:43

Because regions matter...? You're from Austria... so you're like Hitler? EZ

Do austritards realize that sk is now lg?

2016-06-24 17:49

Oh Lord...Do you realize LG is a NA org and the "heroes" you mentioned are brazilians? And yet, did you know that SK is a german organization? Just like fnatic is a british org, G2 is a spanish one, etc. People form Brazil will follow the team not the org... You are a 27 years old dude and still make comments like a 15 years old kid, how sad is that? )': Probably sadder than Liquid fans tears. At this point of life I expect everyone to be way smarter than that...how wrong I was...

It's okay fella, your team is gone. At Least you still have Immortals. When you move out of your parents basement, you can still have the good memories of when the loyal LG won.

The Germans stole your team. WE GREEDY. WE ZIKA. WE BRAZIL. Nice to see the Germans be #1 in the rankings again.

2016-06-24 20:44

I have no idea from where the Immortals organization are, but definitely not from Brazil, so following this 'great' logic of yours we also have SK (: It's so funny how you ignore all my arguments and just act like you're super smart or something hahahaha dude, you're almost 30 years old, give yourself some self-respect geez...
