With the group B games kicking off in the very early hours of the morning in Beijing team fnatic.MSI may blame the fact they hadn't woken up properly in time for the game but if that's the case they better wake up, and fast. Chinese team TyLoo have proven a thorn in the side of the major 1.6 teams in the past, constantly pulling off big wins in big events to shock the favourites, this win is no different as it almost guarantee's TyLoo the top spot in the group - unless someone else upsets the apple cart.
Starting on the CT side of de_nuke it would be TyLoo who drew first blood in the pistol round and from there the team didn't look back, racking up round after round against their hapless opponents. It was xf and GoodRifle pulling the strings for the home team who had the - small - crowd backing them over the mighty Swedes, every time it looked like fnatic were going to pick up a round they were cut down by TyLoo, in the end the Swedes were lucky to be walking away from the half with the two T side rounds they had, advantage TyLoo.
As always when the smaller teams are on the verge of an upset they tend to stutter and barely roll over the finish line - sometimes they don't make the finish line at all. TyLoo were no different, surrendering the pistol round to the Swedes allowed them to mount a comeback of their own, doing exactly what TyLoo did in the first half and clinically closing down the Chinese team before they could get going. Some aggressive pushes from the Swedish team threw off their opponents before they could set up properly, their rigid strategies now costing them dearly. At 7-0 up and with TyLoo wavering under the pressure it looked like fnatic had done enough to come back, but yet again the star man for TyLoo - GoodRifle - managed to pull them back into it, helping secure their first round of the half. From there the team picked up the next two rounds in quick succession, ending the match 16-9 and making them hot favourites for the top spot in the group.
