mousesports have eliminated G2 from IEM Sydney 2018 with a 2-0 victory (16-9 on Dust2 and Mirage) to move on to the event's playoffs.

The last series of day three in Sydney kicked off on Dust2, G2's map pick, with MOUZ winning a near-flawless CT pistol, but failing to follow that up in the next round as Nathan "⁠NBK-⁠" Schmitt clutched a 1v2 situation after finding two more opponents.

Down 1-3, MOUZ started tightening up their defence to eventually grab a minimum lead, 5-4. G2 still managed to equalize things off in what seemed to be a back-and-forth affair. Despite this, Chris "⁠chrisJ⁠" de Jong's men looked quite dominant in the latter stages of the half, stringing five rounds together to go up 10-5 by half-time.

Dan "⁠apEX⁠" Madesclaire opened up the second half with a clean quad-kill to help G2 pick up their T-side pistol, leading them to reduce the deficit to 8-10. In the first gun round, however, MOUZ got back to winning ways with a double-kill from Tomáš "⁠oskar⁠" Šťastný and Miikka "⁠suNny⁠" Kemppi, and, from that moment, there was little that G2 could do to stop them from closing out the map, 16-9.

Next up was Mirage, MOUZ' map pick, where the European mixture started things off with a successful CT pistol, which they capitalized on the subsequent anti-eco. Nevertheless, apEX played a key role in his team's eco in the next round, finding two-entry-kills with a Deagle, to counter their opponents.

MOUZ immediately responded with Martin "⁠STYKO⁠" Styk coming up huge with a Deagle triple-kill, yet G2 further added to their lead in the next two rounds, 5-3. Still, in three of the next four rounds, quad-kills from oskar, chrisJ and Robin "⁠ropz⁠" Kool inspired mousesports to lose only one more round, the final of the half.

In the second half, Alexandre "⁠bodyy⁠" Pianaro could not defuse the bomb in time after a back-and-forth pistol round, encouraging MOUZ to quickly hit match-point without much response from G2.

NBK- then found a lifeline for his team with a MP9 quad-kill, but it was in vain as all that chrisJ's men had to do was to win a single round, which they calmly did four rounds later, 16-9, to book their spot at Qudos Bank Arena.
