What a miracle run the Danes from Heroic gave us as they required just 3 maps to come out on top and win 3-0 against the current world no 2 Vitality winning 325,000 USD!
“In 2015, I was on the desk in Cologne, only dreaming about reaching a final,” the Danish in-game leader Casper “cadiaN” Møller said after the match. “Now, we’re the champions. What a road for this team, what a road for me. I’m speechless.”
Heroic played to perfection, performance that showed just how far they have come since bringing Nicolai “HUNDEN” Petersen in as coach, just four months ago.
Vitality once again had to settle for second place after losing last year’s ESL One Cologne final to Liquid.
The best-of-five clash began on Mirage, one of Vitality‘s worst maps in recent history (40% win percentage in the last three months).
