This elimination match between the two seeds from Americas and China was nothing like the last one at London, with LEV comfortably sweeping XLG out of the tournament.

XLG continued the team's dominance on pistols with one to start Haven, but a failed bonus conversion led to an early 2-2 tie. LEV used the Phoenix and Neon to play an aggressive defense, which XLG struggled to fight through. When XLG was able to perform a set site take, it often went well, but strong retakes from LEV kept the team up 8-4 at the half.

Needing a strong defense, happywei earned XLG the second pistol of the map, cutting the lead to only 9-6 after a tense bonus round loss. Sato caught XLG off guard to jump up to 10-6, using an ultimate that was meant for clearing space and information and snapping to two kills instead.

Sato kills two with his Phoenix ult on Haven.

That mistake led to a bit of a team-wide crumble, reaching an 11-6 deficit. A Sato ace placed LEV at map point, which was soon followed by a round win and a 13-7 map win. The Neon play from spike was immaculate for Haven, as LEV won its map pick.

Lotus was next, and XLG looked to stop the losing streak on a map the team favored regionally and internationally. The triple Sentinel comp started slow, with LEV winning pistol and converting the bonus. The same crumble from map one seemed to bleed into map two, with LEV truly looking untouchable. Lotus could have been a 13-0, but WsLeo managed to earn XLG a single round as LEV entered the half up 11-1.

In a chaotic pistol on B site, Neon closed out the round to reach map and match point for LEV. A force round prevented the series from ending sooner, but all the hope for XLG ended at 13-3.

LEV eliminates XLG from Masters London.

With this win, LEV will move on in the lower bracket to face the other victor of the lower bracket second round matchup between Team Vitality Team Vitality Europe Rank #1 jawgemo Alexander Mor Jamppi Elias Olkkonen PROFEK Dawid Święć Chronicle Timofey Khromov Sayonara Ștefan Mîtcu and FUT Esports FUT Esports Europe Rank #10 yetujey Eray Budak KROSTALY Okan Alaçam Wo0t Mert Alkan .
