HellRaisers and Virtus.pro entered their third match of the day in Helsinki on the brink of elimination after they were both defeated by PENTA Sports earlier in the group stage.

The CIS-based side, who are attending their first LAN event since their double roster change, relied on a world-class display from their Russian recruit, Egor "⁠flamie⁠" Vasilyev, who topped the scoreboard in terms of frags (24) and rating (1.55).

TaZ's Virtus.pro eliminated in the group stage 

After securing a narrow 9-6 lead on the CT side, HellRaisers gave a great account of themselves while playing as Terrorists as they conceded just four rounds in the second half to run out 16-10 victors.
