Only six teams remain at one of the most prestigious CS:GO<\/a> events on the calendar, with G2 Esports, ENCE, Heroic, Astralis, Team Vitality and Cloud9 all booking their place in the playoffs at IEM Cologne.<\/p>\n

Before Tuesday\u2019s final group-stage series, Heroic, ENCE, Team Vitality and G2 Esports had already qualified for the playoffs, with ENCE and G2 going straight through to the semi-finals after winning their respective upper-bracket group finals. <\/p>\n

ENCE and Heroic played out a three-map series, with both teams winning their respective map picks, Nuke (ENCE) and Overpass (Heroic). <\/p>\n

It took all 30 rounds on the final map, but the world number five ended the world number one\u2019s nine-match win streak, relegating Heroic to the quarter-finals.<\/p>\n
