Natus Vincere defeated FaZe on two maps with a resounding victory. NAVI's advantage was overwhelming: on Dust2 FaZe managed to win only six rounds, and the Inferno draw ended with the score 16 – 1. Despite the recent lineup changes, Natus Vincere has looked quite convincing so far in the tournament, with its only setback being a loss to OG on the first day of the tournament. Now OG and Natus Vincere will meet again, already in the semifinal match.
For FaZe, which is currently on the first place in the world ranking, the performance at the Lisbon tournament came to an unexpected end: in its first match it defeated Brazilian paiN, but then lost to G2 and NAVI. Commenting on his team's defeat, FaZe captain Finn «karrigan» Andersen noted that they literally had no chance. FaZe players constantly lacked time to correct their mistakes, and any attempts to shift the initiative were met with NAVI's superiority. Also, karrigan said he was disappointed with the team's performance at the BLAST Premier Spring Finals, especially after a relatively successful performance in Dallas. He suggested that the problem was a lack of time to practice.
