AGAiN in nailbiting ESC Gaming tie

Group B has seen a tie as the former Frag eXecutors team, AGAiN, have tied up against ESC Gaming in a nailbiting match.

Starting out as CT on de_train, the former Frag eXecutors team opened up the match by claiming the two first rounds, but a nifty countermove by ESC Gaming prevented immediate progression. 

After collecting a couple of rounds each, AGAiN seemingly picked up some speed, stating a four-round lead with their 8-4 scoreline. Upon switching sides, the scoreboard showed 9-6 in their favor.

Now playing Terrorist, AGAiN made an unsuccessful bomb plant attempt, which was nicely overturned by ESC Gaming. Equipped with proper guns, ESC now had the greater advantage.

After ESC Gaming had sealed five straight rounds, putting the overall score to 11-9, Jarosław "pasha" Jarząbkowski productively opened up the bombsite and helped AGAiN secure another point.

One round lead to another and the Poles were now in the lead by one point. However, ESC Gaming did not seem distressed and made it clear they were still in contention by following closely behind.

During the final rounds, the Scandinavian team managed to surpass AGAiN and set the score to 15-14, but the latter struck back and ultimately tied the two sides up at 15-15.
