Kinguin defeat Virtus.pro 2-0 (16-14 on Dust2 and 16-5 on Mirage) in an upset and EnVyUs take down Space Soldiers 2-1 (8-16 on Cache, 22-19 on Cobblestone, and 16-14 on Dust2) in the WESG 2016 World Finals semifinals.

The semifinals of the $1.5 million WESG 2016 World Finals in Changzhou, China saw Virtus.pro and Kinguin in one match-up and Space Soldiers and Envy in the other as all four teams locked horns for a leviathan $800,000 first place prize.

With VP and EnVyUs both having been billed as heavy favourites ahead of the tournament's commencement (ranked #6 and #11 on our rankings respectively), Janusz "⁠Snax⁠" Pogorzelski and crew quickly found themselves on the back foot as Polish rivals and upstarts Kinguin edged out their map pick of Dust2 16-14.

Any chance of a classic Golden Five comeback was then quickly snuffed out as a Michał "⁠MICHU⁠" Müller and Mikołaj "⁠mouz⁠" Karolewski led effort on Virtus.pro's map pick of Mirage closed out the map 16-5 and relegated their elite Polish brethren to a 3-4th place finish (dependent on the third place decider later today).

The second semifinal also began in unexpected fashion as Ahmet "⁠paz⁠" Karahoca powered his team to a 16-8 victory on nV's map pick of Cache. The second map of Cobblestone then went the long mile with 9-6 halves being traded and two overtimes playing out; with Kenny "⁠kennyS⁠" Schrub in fine form however, it was the French team who closed out the second map 22-19.

With the decider map being Dust2, Space Soldiers defended the first half with a 9-6 lead. EnVyUs then appeared to have the second pistolround in their hands, but Engin "⁠ngiN⁠" Kor picked up four quick pistol kills in a two-versus-four to give Space Soldiers the round.

However, solid defending from the French team inched them forward and Vincent "⁠Happy⁠" Schopenhauer & co. eventually secured a 16-14 victory and moved into the grand finals.
