Lemondogs to MSI Beat it! finals

Lemondogs have qualified for MSI Beat it! 2013 World Finals after defeating n!faculty 2-0 (16-13 de_dust2_se, 22-19 de_train_se) in the European qualifier's semi-finals.

Marcus "Delpan" Larsson's squad started the match with a dominating 12-3 performance as terrorists on de_dust2_se, largely thanks to strong AWPing by the former SK Gaming star.

Second half saw Markus "pronax" Wallsten's n!faculty attempt a comeback as they got as close as 13-15 on their try as the attackers, but ultimately the team led by Faruk "pita" Pita came out with the win.

The deciding map wound up being even closer, with Lemondogs going from a 4-0 lead as terrorists to losing eight of the nine following rounds, before finishing the half with a strong 7-8 deficit.

n!faculty had an equally strong terrorist side, sending the game to overtime, but even Jacob "pyth" Mourujärvi's monstrous 43 frag performance wasn't enough, as LD grinded out a 22-19 win.
