EGIPTYANE in their second match of the day faced UNiTED, who recently faced a series of changes, changes that did not seem to affect the performance of the team against EGIPTYANE.
UNiTED upon their poor show at Arbalet Cup Best of Four went through swapping two players and Arbalet Cup CIS would be the first real test for the team. In their first match of the day, UNiTED ran over Rampage 26-4, but would in second round face a more difficult opponent.
Playing de_tuscan versus EGIPTYANE, UNiTED got to start on the T side. The first half saw a bunch of clutch rounds going both ways, which concluded with 8-7 for UNiTED at half-time. Now playing on the CT side, UNiTED showed great play and EGIPTYANE had big issues to get a lock on how to enter those bombsites. A victory against Natus Vincere only ignited EGIPTYANE for so long, as UNiTED performed well as CT, taking 12-3 in their favor and winning the match 20-10 overall.
