Natus Vincere have conquered the gold at the 2010 WCG finals with a 2-1 victory over mTw.

The first map, de_inferno, kicked off with Natus Vincere the better of the two sides, as the Ukrainian giants managed to pick up a total of 11 rounds in the first half. Na´Vi enlarged their lead in the pistol round of the second half, but mTw got right back into the game and won three rounds in a row to find a lifeline. However, that did not hurt Na´Vi, who simply controlled the tempo as they saw fit to walk out with a 16-8 result.

de_tuscan began with Natus Vincere winning the pistol round as Terrorist, but after that Alexander "ave" Holdt equalized the game with a fantastic three-kill deagle round. mTw’s momentum expired right after, though, as Na´Vi regained the lead and picked up four more rounds to make it 6-1 for them. mTw then finally got back into the match and reduced to deficit to just one round, but the rest of the half practically went Na´Vi’s way as they boasted a 9-6 half-time lead.

The second half threw the first three rounds to mTw, but Na´Vi responded immediately after with a stunning five-round streak, becoming just two rounds away from victory. However, mTw pulled off an impressive comeback and started amassing rounds, eventually turning the score round to win the map 16-14.



On the third map, de_train, neither side could prove their authority over the other, with mTw proving in the last rounds of the second half why they can be called the "comeback team", as Natus Vincere had plenty of opportunities to close the curtain. After a first overtime in which both teams played out perfect CT halves, an aggressive 3-0 half as Terrorist from Na´Vi was followed by a win in the second half as CT, giving Na´Vi a 19-15 victory.

4. compLexity

Natus Vincere will now add yet another piece of silverware to their already filled cabinet, joining trophies from competitions such as the ESWC or the IEM World Championship.

Natus Vincere outclassed Frag eXecutors, but they were still made to work hard to get the victory, specially on the first map, de_dust2, where neither side could get over the other, as the scoreboard showed 15-15 after the two halves. As the teams entered overtime, Na´Vi raised the bar, and two 2-1 halves gave them the lead in the tie.

On de_tuscan, Na´Vi were simply far too hot for their opponents to handle, and went into the second half up 10-5. The first four rounds of the second session also went Na´Vi's way, before FX finally managed to respond, winning three rounds in a row. But that was as far as they got, as the Ukrainians won two consecutive rounds to win the map 16-8 and claim an overall 2-0 victory.

Natus Vincere and mTw will now play against each other for the WCG trophy and the first prize of $25,000, while Frag eXecutors will meet compLexity for the bronze.
