5. oskar vs
Natus Vincere
Event: ESL Pro League Season 5: Finals
It was Cobblestone overtime when oskar and
seized found themselves in a 1х1 situation. The Czech sniper knew the perfect timings. It seemed as though his opponent didn't even understand if the bomb was being defused. 10 seconds of intense waiting, and the round was taken by
mousesports.
4. SZPERO vs
EnVyUs
Event: ESL Pro League Season 5
Having found himself in a 1×3 situation with a pistol, the Pole decided to risk: he just started defusing the bomb. ScreaM was apparently shocked by such arrogance and got confused. Thus, a third of a second put the French out of business.
3. woxic vs
Fnatic
Event: IEM Katowice 2018 Closed Quals
Our woxic was to go up against two enemies and a ticking bomb in one of the decisive rounds on Overpass. The situation was hard because of the position, though our young player didn't give up and proved that the simple solutions are often the most correct.
2. GuardiaN vs
Cloud 9
Event: ESL One Cologne 2017
It was the second map of a semi-final match between Natus Vincere and
Cloud 9. The Americans had won the first map and got a game point. The bomb was planted, and
Na'Vi had basically no chances to win the round. However,
GuardiaN wasn't going to give up. Yes,
Natus Vincere lost the next round and didn't qualify for the grand final, though the Slovak did show an impressive play.
1. karrigan vs
SK Gaming
Event: IEM Sydney 2017
In this round, the in-game leader of FaZe was left alone against three enemies. The Dane didn't have a smoke, and the bomb's ticking was increasing.
karrigan started defusing, though the Brazilians neutralized the threat before the bomb exploded… Didn't they?
By the way, we made the first episode of the series about ninja defuses exactly a year ago. You can find it here.
