G2 squared off against Astralis in the tournament as well. In Round 1 of the Upper Bracket, G2 failed to win a game against Astralis.

Both G2 and FaZe are looking to exact revenge on Astralis, but both need to focus on their current matchup.

It has been a journey for G2 up to this point. After losing in the opening round, G2 needed to win two straight matchups to reach the Lower Bracket Final. After defeating Team Heretics and Team Vitality, G2 are one win away from the Grand Final.

If G2 were to capture the Lower Bracket Final, as well as the Grand Final, it would be an unprecedented turn of events.

G2 Esports may reportedly replace Shox and Lucky

FaZe has only one blemish on their record but now they are one loss away from elimination. FaZe took care of G2 in the Round Robin, so G2 has plenty to play for in today’s marquee matchup.

This contest will be heavily viewed as FaZe and G2 have been rivals for quite some time. With a ticket to the Grand Final up for grabs, this is a highly anticipated CS: GO matchup.
