HR, dignitas top groups at DH

HellRaisers and dignitas have topped their groups at DreamHack Winter after second round wins over fnatic and iBUYPOWER, respectively.

In the group B match dignitas played iBUYPOWER on de_nuke, the very same map both had drawn in their victorious first round matches against PENTA and Copenhagen Wolves.

This time dignitas were far superior however, scoring a 13-2 lead as counter-terrorists and quickly finishing the North Americans off with a 16-7 scoreline to guarantee group B's top finish. DreamHack Winter 2014Best of 1 DignitasMatchpage 16 7 27th November 2014 iBUYPOWER 16Nuke 7

In the other game fnatic and HR started neck and neck with the Swedes gaining an early 3-2 lead, before going on a run that saw them extend their lead to 7-2 before HR could figure them out.

The ex-CIS based squad wound up scoring two more rounds to finish the half, giving them some room to work with at a 4-11 deficit when switching to the much easier defensive side.

Though fnatic won the fourth round as terrorists, HR kept hammering them down with Kirill "⁠ANGE1⁠" Karasiow and Emil "⁠kUcheR⁠" Akhundov leading the way in terms of fragging.

The Swedes went up 14-13 with Markus "⁠pronax⁠" Wallsten's ace, but HellRaisers prevailed, thanks to a triple kill in B by youngster Oleksandr "⁠s1mple⁠" Kostyliev, to give them a 16-14 win. DreamHack Winter 2014Best of 1 fnaticMatchpage 14 16 27th November 2014 HellRaisers 14Mirage 16
