According to <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\"  title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\"  target=\"_blank\">BetOnline<\/a>, Outsiders were +127 underdogs coming into the game, with Heroic pegged as -142.86 favourites.<\/p>\n<div class=\" embed-twitter\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Outsiders defeat <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/heroicgg?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@heroicgg<\/a> 2-0 to win <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/IEM?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#IEM<\/a> Rio Major 2022! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Z0vfHZ4YgE\">pic.twitter.com\/Z0vfHZ4YgE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; HLTV.org @ IEM RIO \ud83c\udde7\ud83c\uddf7 (@HLTVorg) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HLTVorg\/status\/1591897515645108224?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 13, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>Prior to the grand final, all five players on the Outsiders roster had yet to win a Major trophy in <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/counter-strike\/\" title=\"CS:GO betting\">Counter-Strike: Global Offensive<\/a>. \u2028On the roster, Jame, Aleksei \u201cQikert\u201d Golubev, and coach Dastan \u201cdastan\u201d Aqbaev had come close to winning a Major at StarLadder Berlin 2019, where they competed under the AVANGAR banner and lost to Astralis in the final. However, for 19-year-old rifler Pyotr \u201cfame\u201d Bolyshev, this is his first Major appearance. \u2028 <\/p>\n<p>\u2028The first map of the grand final, Mirage, as chosen by Outsiders, recorded a close first half, with Heroic putting up a good fight. However, Outsiders claimed the map, having taken control on the CT side with Jame, fame, and Evgeniy \u201cFL1T\u201d Lebedev, who totaled an impressive 70 kills on the map. Outsiders proceeded to win the map with a 16-12 record.\u2028 <\/p>\n<p>\u2028The second map, Overpass, although chosen by Heroic, saw the Danish-Norwegian franchise struggle to find any openings on the T side. By the end of the first half of the map, Outsiders were in the lead with a 12-3 scoreline, largely due to their outright dominance on the CT side.\u2028 \u2028Heroic tried to stage a comeback, but it was impossible as Outsiders took command of the first buy round and powered their way to a 16-5 win to seal the title.<\/p>\n<p>\u2028\u2028Outsiders&#8217; run in the Rio Major has been shocking, as they had previously failed to get a positive outcome at any international tournament since bearing the Outsiders name. Prior to Rio, their best run at a major event came in <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/counter-strike\/esl-pro-league\/\" title=\"ESL Pro League betting\">ESL Pro League<\/a> Season 16, where they were eliminated in the quarterfinals by the eventual champions, Team Vitality. <\/p>\n<p>\u2028Heroic are expected to dust off the loss and look forward to exerting their dominance in the 2023 season. They have proven themselves to be the next Danish powerhouse, with Astralis struggling since the return of Majors in 2021.\u2028 <\/p>\n<p>\u2028Heroics&#8217; young roster wields a lot of promise, with only their in-game leader Casper \u201ccadiaN\u201d M\u00f8ller aged above 20 years. They have been consistent, being the only team outside of FURIA and NAVI to appear in the playoffs in three consecutive Majors.<\/p>\n<p>\u2028<a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/news\/\"
