SK Gaming has after some solid play on the CT side of de_train, managed to send Natus Vincere to the lower-bracket at World e-Sports Masters 2010.

It promised for great action, when it was known that Na´Vi and SK would face off in the upper-bracket semi-final, especially with the map being de_train. Na´Vi, known for their very consistent CT play, got to start on the CT side and once again showed how dangerous they are on this particular map. The Ukrainians scored a total of 12 rounds, while SK managed to claim 3.

In the second half, the Swedes started getting out by getting the pistol-round, which was crucial to still having a chance to be able to win the match. This started a show by Johan "face" Klasson, who in the inner bombsite locked down Na´Vi round after round, taking several with him once he fell. Na´Vi tried hard to score some rounds, but was denied time and again. Also stand-in Marcus "Delpan" Larsson played a role in the SK victory, landing some important AWP shots on Na´Vi. SK took 13 rounds to straight to win 16-12 and send Na´Vi to the lower-bracket.
