Lynn Vision advance with 2-0 win over NRG

It's do-or-die time for the teams in Stage 1 of the BLAST.tv Austin Major.

We're now one game down, and look away NA fans, another one of your teams have exited the competition.

NRG will be following Complexity in an early exit, they lost 2-0 to Lynn Vision after a crushing overtime defeat on map one.

Let's take a look at the action.

Lynn Vision snatch away Dust2 after triple OT

NRG were looking very strong in the first half of Dust2, they took a solid 7-5 lead into the break thanks to a 14-5 performance from jeorge on the CT side.

The Americans kept pushing in the second half and soon found themselves with a 12-8 lead on their opponents' map pick. However, Lynn Vision weren't out of the map just yet, they managed to pull it back and sealed OT thanks to a successful retake on B.

The Chinese team continued their run of rounds in OT, winning all three of their CT rounds. The third and final round of that run featured one of the best plays of the Major so far, and we'll just let the clip do the talking.

But Lynn Vision weren't the only team to dominate the CT side in overtime, NRG managed to take us to double OT with a series of solid rounds.

They kept going in the second OT, too, oSee hit a nuts flick in Mid to give NRG the advantage in a round.

Tied at 20-20, nitr0 and z4kr were left in a 1v1 clutch to take map point, and it was z4kr who got the better of Captain America.

The map finally drew to an end a round later at 22-20, z4kr topped the server with a 39-24 statline.

Lynn Vision advance on Inferno

NRG got off to a strong start on Inferno, HexT picked up a 4k with the dualies to win them the opening round.

And oSee extended NRG's lead in round five, he somehow managed to pull off the defuse with no time left on the clock.

Lynn Vision soon wrestled back control of the game though, dominating their CT to win the game 13-8 thanks to a 24-13 performance from EmiliaQAQ.
