BIG become the first of two teams to make it through the FLASHPOINT Global Qualifier after defeating HAVU 2-0 on Mirage and Dust2.

BIG turned a slow start in Los Angeles around after an opening match loss to DETONA, a team they knocked out in the best-of-three Group A decider match, by winning one of the two semi-final matches that offer a berth in the inaugural FLASHPOINT season.

HAVU, who came into the tournament as a substitute for SKADE due to the Bulgarian team not being able to secure visas, had a clean slate with wins over Chaos and Copenhagen Flames in Group B, but faltered in the final match.

HAVU took the early lead on BIG’s map pick, going up 3-0 on the CT side. BIG brought it back to 4-4 on the attacking side, setting themselves up for a possible lead at the half, but four kills by Olli "⁠sLowi⁠" Pitkänen kept the Finns ahead. Two rounds in succession gave BIG the lead for the first time, but HAVU turned it back around thanks to several multi-kill rounds by Joonas "⁠doto⁠" Forss to make it 9-6.

HAVU won the second pistol round to hit double digits, but scout doubles by Florian "⁠syrsoN⁠" Rische and Johannes "⁠tabseN⁠" Wodarz threw BIG right back into the game. The German side got within one before HAVU could tally a gun round in the second half thanks to doubles by sLowi and Lasse "⁠ZOREE⁠" Uronen, but the momentum had already shifted and BIG kept a tight hold on defense, regaining the lead and going on to close the first map out giving up but a single round from there on out, 16-12.

The Finnish team made it three for three in pistol rounds on the defending side of Dust2, but were once again traded on the forcebuy as BIG took the 3-1 lead. HAVU brought it back to a tie, but doubles by Ismailcan "⁠XANTARES⁠" Dörtkardeş and tabseN kept BIG in the lead, although the CTs struck back immediately, breaking the Terrorists’ economy and going on a four-round streak. The Finns then closed the half doubling their opponents’ score, 10-5, in a bid to push the series to a decider.

syrsoN took down three players as BIG won a crucial pistol round to stay in the game, cutting distances to 8-10 after winning against the forcebuy and eco. Stopping a long push by HAVU in the first gun round, the German squad further closed the gap, eventually going on to tie the match 10-10. BIG then charged for toward the finish line, taking a 13-10 lead, and although they were momentarily stopped from doing so as HAVU won three rounds, they eventually closed the map out 16-13.
