Grayhound won their first map against Chiefs in a 19-17 nailbiter on Dust2 before closing the series out breezing through Overpass, 16-6, with Simon "⁠Sico⁠" Williams having a great series with 84.5% KAST and a 1.36 rating.

The first map against ORDER on Train, which Grayhound were able to win 16-7 after a 10-5 half, meant that Christopher "⁠dexter⁠" Nong and company were through to the LAN finals in France.

With nothing on the line, ORDER rolled over Grayhound on the CT side of Overpass, taking the half 13-2, but the second map actually went into overtime as Grayhound racked up the rounds in the second half. Finally, the hounds were able to take the match after a double overtime, 22-19.
