The last time these two teams faced was in the upper finals of playoffs in Pacific. Back then it went the way of Full Sense, who handedly won the series 2-0. This time around, on the global stage, the match went a little differently.

The match started on GE's map pick of Split, where they got off to a hot start, with Kr1stal immediately pulling off a 1v3 on the pistol round. Converting the bonus two rounds later got them up to a 4-0 lead, and concerns began to raise about if Full Sense were ever going to turn up to the stage. They quickly answered that question in the next round, where they pulled out a thrifty round to halt GE's momentum. They quickly equalized the score, and then took the lead 7-5 at the half. Full Sense's players were finally warming up to the stage as they each had big moments in rounds.

GE began the second half with their second pistol win, but it was soon clear that they were outmatched on the map. Full Sense made their way onto sites with ease, forcing GE to tuck tail and save in several rounds. They quickly won the map 13-9.

A big part of Full Sense's coming alive was none other than primmie , who was now fully matching his Pacific Stage 1 performance. He ripped into GE with an Operator on defense, and then spearheaded his team's entries on attack. On his signature Jett, he put up 27 kills and a 1.69 ratings, living up to the demon he was touted as coming into the tournament.

Moving onto Breeze, primmie continued his electric form, taking the opening pistol with a 4k and winning the follow up with a flashy 3k. However, GE quickly stabilized and began winning rounds as they limited primmie's impact. Autumn in particular was unafraid of the head to head, and regularly shut him down in Operator duels.

Keeping primmie in check, GE managed to regularly outdo Full Sense in gun rounds and eventually won the map in a convincing 13-8, leaving it all down to the decider map of Pearl.

Pearl was a tale of two players: Kr1stal and primmie. The first half was utter dominance for GE, with Full Sense unable to close out any of their advantage rounds. If Kr1stal was still alive, GE had a chance in the round. It took a 1v2 from crws to find Full Sense their first round of the half, and their struggles continued until they were facing a 10-2 deficit at halftime.

GE weren't planning on letting up in the second half, as another pistol round victory helped them quickly get up to match point, with eight chances to close out the map. However, the second half was when primmie started to take control. Round after round he pulled through, keeping his team alive as the comeback became more and more real.

However, bringing Full Sense back down to reality was none other than Kr1stal, who delivered the death blow and finished out the map 13-8.

In a shocking underperformance, Pacific's number two seed are eliminated from Masters London with an 0-2 record. Despite the loss, primmie still put up showstopping numbers in the series, with 73 kills and a +34 K/D.

For GE, their win advances them to the final round of the Swiss stage, where they will face Xi Lai Gaming Xi Lai Gaming China Rank #2 WsLeo Huang Pinwei (黄品维) Lysoar Liang Youhao (梁优好) NoMan James Man Rarga Arthur Churyumov happywei Deng Minwei (邓闵维) for a chance to reach playoffs.
