The Russian squad upset the highest-ranked team of the event to secure the title.

FORZE emerged victorious in CCT Central Europe Series 2, finishing at the top of the pile after besting OG 2-1 in a grand final that was anyone's game. The Russian quintet take home the $22,000 cash prize, as well as add 150 points towards their placing on the CCT regional rankings leaderboard.

OG, on the flip side of things, will lament being unable to go all the way in the tournament. They came into the event as the highest-rated team (13th) and made light work of their foes as they progressed through the playoffs, but couldn't keep up this momentum in the grand final.

The Russian roster started their run through the 23-team event straight from the playoffs after receiving a direct invite to the knockout stage. The Andrey "⁠Jerry⁠" Mekhryakov-led team had to make their wins count as they moved through the elimination bracket, taking home hard-fought victories over los kogutos, Finest, and Into the Breach to set up a grand final matchup versus OG.

There, the side managed to rally together when it mattered, barely edging out their opponents after a laborious three-map series — 19-16 on Inferno, 14-16 on Dust2 and 16-11 on Overpass.

FORZE now sit with 185 points on the CCT regional rankings. The three teams who secure a podium finish by the end of the four regional online series will book a spot in the Central Europe studio finals. The play-ins of the two remaining online tournaments get started on October 9 and November 26, respectively.

The event win also serves as a confidence booster for the Russian lineup's campaign through the upcoming IEM Road to Rio Europe RMR, which is set to begin on October 4. Jerry and company have been seeded into Group A, with their first matchup at the Major-qualifying event being against Sprout on Tuesday at 11:00 .
