Cloud9 notch fifth comeback at IEM Rio with huge win versus NAVI

No other team at the IEM Rio CS:GO Major has been as resilient as Cloud9, who at one point were down 0-2 in the Challengers Stage, but have now rallied back in four different series in which they trailed to reach the 2-0 pool of Legends Stage.

Their most recent triumph comes against their greatest foe yet, one of the top contenders in NAVI. C9 was trailing 13-7, having lost the first five rounds of the second half. But like they’ve done all tournament, they rallied on their CT side, winning nine of the last 10 rounds thanks to a dominant defensive side. They were led by 20 second half kills from Ax1Le, who finished Mirage with a total of 33.
