Astralis pummel Torpedo

csgo crates2025-04-20 22:57:327

Astralis convincingly beat their Swedish neighbours of Torpedo 2-0 (16-6 on de_cache and 16-2 on de_dust2) and are now in the Counter Pit League Season 2 semifinals.

The Scandinavian showdown between Astralis and Torpedo was the third semifinal of the Counter Pit League Season 2 finals and pitted the second best team in the world against a Swedish team that had been making waves on the second to third tiers of European Counter-Strike in the past few months.

de_cache was the first map of the series and the Danish Astralis showcased how fearsome their CT-side site holds can be, as Finn "⁠karrigan⁠" Andersen powered his men to a 13-2 half, which included Andreas "⁠Xyp9x⁠" Højsleth getting a crucial 4K round on the first gunround of the map.

Astralis went generally unchallenged in the series against Torpedo

Joachim "⁠darti⁠" Fornstedt and his teammates were unable to muster much momentum on the second half either; while Astralis won the second pistolround and were then promptly force bought against by Torpedo, it was a matter of mere rounds before the Danish team claimed victory on the first map with a 16-6 score.

de_dust2 saw a very similar outcome, albeit with even more dominance. Astralis raced ahead to a 14-1 first half that swept aside the Swedes completely, and despite Torpedo taking the second pistolround, the series was over in the blink of an eye as Astralis claimed victory with a 16-2 score.
