However, the attacking player, Mzihno, with just 5 HP, managed to plant the bomb and clutch the round with an incredible quadro kill! A series of rounds in the same spirit pushes the Mongols to a 4-0 lead.

4-1 — MIBR capitalizes on a mistake by Mzihno, who still manages a solo double kill and plants the bomb, creating hope for a second quad-kill clutch.

The MongolZ feel at home on Ancient, a map they often pick against strong teams. MIBR secure their first solid round at 6-2, prompting a pause from the Mongols. At 6-3, coordinated defense punishes an overconfident attack, but MongolZ quickly recovers to make it 7-4. MIBR vs MongolZ responds with a brilliant eco round featuring an AWP, closing the half 7-5.
