Pro player roasts ENCE after only dying once against them StarLadderAfter a startling upset over top five team ENCE to kick off BLAST Pro Series Moscow, forZe player Bogdan \u2018xsepower\u2019 Chernikov made a crack at the Finnish team\u2019s expense following his near-perfect game. This is not the start to the new era that ENCE wanted. In their first map with Mikka \u2018suNny\u2019 Kemppi instead of Aleksi \u2018Aleksib\u2019 Virolainen, the all-Finnish squad faced off against ForZe, who qualified for BLAST Moscow after getting to skip the play-in match against AVANGAR after Team Vitality with withdrew from the event. In an unexpected twist, ForZe not only beat ENCE on Inferno, but thrashed them 16-4. ENCE didn\u2019t pick up a single CT round in the second half, and none of their players cracked 10 kills across 20 rounds. One of ForZe\u2019s players, xsepower, also did not crack 10 kills, but amazingly only died once during the entire map. Noted CS:GO twitter user DonHaci posted the scoreboard online, and xsepower replied with a reasonable explanation for his eight kill\/one death scoreline. It\u2019s quite embarrassing to lose a map so badly, but it\u2019s more embarassing to lose a map that badly while one of your opponents contributes the bare minimum. But the good news for xsepower is that his teammate\u2019s contributed far beyond the bare minimum. All of the ForZe players had at least twice as many kills as deaths, with Almaz \u2018almazer\u2019 Assadulin leading the way with a 26-11 scoreline. Unfortunately xsepower was one death away from the undying game, which isn\u2019t as rare an accomplishment as you might think. Kirill \u201cANGE1\u201d Karasiow went 26-0 against Spanish team Anima in the first year of his five year tenure with HellRaisers. Patrik \u2018f0rest\u2019 Lindberg went 16-0 against PangaFett a month prior, during the golden age of Ninjas in Pyjamas in 2014. NiP also won that map on Train 16-0. ForZe was nearly in the New Legends stage of the StarLadder Berlin major after two victories over Grayhound and FURIA, but were unable to overcome G2 Esports or DreamEaters to advance to the next stage. They are not scared of superior competition however, with a victories over ENCE and AVANGAR, who were each grand finalists in the last two majors. ForZe\u2019s IGL Andrey \u2018Jerry\u2019 Assadulin admitted he was surprised by ENCE\u2019s \u201cdirect\u201d style of calling plays. For ENCE, it\u2019s been a no good, very bad start to the BLAST Moscow event, and their era with suNny, as they tied their second map of the day against Na\u2019Vi as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
