The two-year run of Counter-Strike in the CCT circuit has come to an end with the conclusion of the CCT Global Finals 2024. Eternal Fire emerged victorious over Team Liquid in the Grand Finals to emerge as the champion of champions,
The game ended in a 3:1 series win for Eternal Fire but it was far from straightforward although ironically it could have also ended in a clean slate 3:0 win for Eternal Fire.
The winners showed their intent from the beginning as Eternal Fire got off to a boosted start in the series, winning two maps without breaking a sweat or resistance from Liquid.
Liquid, who knocked out Astralis convincingly on Wednesday, was a shadow of themselves in terms of their performance. However, they eventually won a map after taking Dust 2 to overtime. EF didn’t waste time to bounce back on Nuke to win the CCT Global Finals 2024.
XANTARES was actively showing his prowess on the server all through for EF and he disturbed Liquid for the entirety, they would pray not to face him anytime soon. While the young Wicadia was struggling to keep up, Calyx was made up for it.
Meanwhile, it will be interesting to see what move Liquid makes next, as rumors say that they may drop cadiaN from the roster, and his performance in this Grand Final performance may be confirmed soon.
Even if he leaves the team though, there is still more of him to be seen after the conclusion of the CCT Global Finals 2024. However, there might be enough time to redeem himself or perhaps play one more tournament for Liquid, who will travel to IEM Dallas in 2024, possibly the last time the entire roster will play together.
YEKINDAR, skullz, cadiaN will all utilize the last chance to save their position on the team but they might have to do as much as winning the tournament to successfully do that.
