Heroic Secures Spot in Fall Finals, Natus Vincere to Face Knockout Bracket

Heroic's road to the BLAST Premier Fall Finals in Copenhagen's Royal Arena remained undefeated, though they stumbled once against Natus Vincere in the qualifying rematch. The Danes secured their spot in the Fall Finals on home soil with a determined performance.

The intense rematch began on Mirage, Natus Vincere's pick, where they initially gained a 5-0 advantage. However, Heroic's strong defense and efficient economy turned the tide, leading them to secure the map with Jakob "jabbi" Nygaard's exceptional Desert Eagle play at 13-11.

Moving on to Inferno, Natus Vincere displayed a commanding CT side, acquiring a comfortable 10-round cushion. The match remained close after the sides switched, but Natus Vincere's crucial decisions earned them a 29th-round victory and eventually led to Heroic's first map loss at the event.

The decider took place on Nuke, with Heroic successfully denying Ancient. Their well-executed attacks exploited Natus Vincere's vulnerable defenses, allowing them to build an 11-4 lead. Although Natus Vincere fought valiantly, Mihai "iM" Ivan's impressive performance couldn't bridge the gap, and Heroic secured their spot in the Royal Arena with a 16-12 victory.

While Heroic will proudly represent Denmark in the Fall Finals, Natus Vincere now faces the knockout bracket, where they'll battle against the winner of G2 vs. Evil Geniuses for a chance to avoid the Showdown.
