The run to glory saw The MongolZ tear through the single-elimination bracket, taking down Vitality, 3DMAX, and GamerLegion before their final clash with the Turkish hopefuls.

Map 1 – Mirage: Overtime Brilliance

The action kicked off on Mirage, The MongolZ’s map pick. Aurora came out swinging, with XANTARES and woxic turning heads through sheer firepower and clutch plays. Still, The MongolZ hung tight, stealing crucial force-buy rounds and dragging the game into overtime.

In the end, they edged out Aurora 16-14, thanks to their cool under pressure and tactical depth.

Map 2 – Dust2: Tactical Supremacy

On Dust2, The MongolZ read MAJ3R’s every move, flipping a 0-3 deficit into a 7-5 lead by halftime. Aurora showed sparks — particularly through a jaw-dropping Deagle quad-kill by Wicadia — but it wasn’t enough to change the outcome. The MongolZ shut down any comeback hopes, closing the map 13-9.

Map 3 – Nuke: Crushing Finish

The final map, Nuke, started with a pistol round win for The MongolZ. Although MAJ3R delivered a spectacular eco triple kill with a Zeus, it only delayed the inevitable. A stunning 1vs3 AWP clutch by 910 followed by a Deagle triple from Senzu crushed Aurora’s momentum. The Mongolian side sealed the deal emphatically with a 13-4 victory.
