After a series of surprise victories, America's Team 3D is one win away from victory in the CPL $100,000 CS Tournament. For the second time in this tournament, Team 3D will be facing off with the Scandinavian sensation GoL (who won the losers bracket after being put there by 3D). The map is de_dust2 and the stakes are unquestionable: thousands of dollars and glory: be it for the previously struggling Team 3D or for the European hopefuls GoL.
Team 3D wins once and it's all over for GoL. GoL wins twice and they get the come-from-behind victory. The money and teams are almost secondary as tens of thousands of CS players prepare to watch the scores unfold. It's a match that will determine which side of the Atlantic has the glory. Until the next CPL event where another rivalry of continents will undoubtedly take place.[break="round by round coverage"]Round by Round coverage - de_dust2
Final Score -- 3D 13 over GoL 10
Round 1 - GoL as terrorists plants bomb at A. Take out CTs.
Round 2 - GoL plants bomb at B and it detonates.
Round 3 - GoL plants at A and bomb detonates.
Round 4 - GoL plants at A. 3D kills all members. Bomb defused.
Round 5 - GoL splits up: 3 to B, 2 under bridge to A it looked like. All eliminated, 3D loses none.
Round 6 - GoL rushes catwalk. Kim grenade kills two, the rest are taken out with M4's.
Round 7 - GoL rushes A. Down to one on one; Vic AWPs Ksharp.
Round 8 - GoL rushes/plants at A. 3d infils bombsite and takes out GoL, defuses.
Round 9 -GoL rushes bombsite B, 3D loses one and takes out GoL.
Round 10 - GoL splits up and rushes to A. Plants. The last 3D member saves his gun. Bomb explodes.
Round 11 - Four GoL rush A. One near B (who doesn't have bomb). 2 on 1, GoL takes out last 3D.
Round 12 - GoL rushes B, bomb planted. Takes out 3D.

Round 13 - 3D does a simple rush with glocks and dies.
Round 14 - 3D games all near B with three players with pistols. One 3D with USP (Ksharp) near T spawn, holds back three CTs. Dies. GoL slowly scouts map, seem confused by inactivity. GoL finds 3D. Bullets fly. 2 on 2, 3D camps and the round ends with the victory going to GoL (targets saved).
Round 15 - 3D rushes A (long path, slowly). One 3D came from Catwalk. 3D eliminates GoL; a solid distraction rush.
Round 16 - Two 3Ds go catwalk, two long A, and a third stays at middle point then dies. 4 on 4. Vic and Hyb (GoL) die, 4 on 2. Bomb detonates.
Round 17 - 3D rushes B. Ksharp takes out two GoL. 3 on 1, then 2 on 1 but bomb detonates.
Round 18 - 3D splits up. Two go long A, three go B. The distraction works: as GoL heads to A, 3D slips into B. 3D loses none, plants bomb, and eliminates GoL. Match tied at 9-9.
Round 19 - 3D rushes B, plants. Ends up being 2 on 1 but bomb detonates as GoL member saves his gun.
Round 20 - 3D rushes B, takes out GoL with two remaining.
Round 21 - 3D rushes A via both catwalk and long A. Large battle; eventually 1 on 1 with geffon (oalnts) and Soul. Soul AWPs geffon, defuses.
Round 22 - 3D does another split rush to A. 4 3D vs 2 GoL. 2 GoL at bombsite B choose to save guns. Bomb detonates.
Round 23 - 3D quickly rushes B. 4 on 1. GoL loses. 3D wins the CPL!
