The first two Counter-Strike matches taking place on the regular stage have been struck by network problems.

The matches between mTw and Frag eXecutors and Evil Geniuses have both been paused half way through due to network problems the ESL is currently attempting to fix.

Such problems have affected the row where fnatic are sitting, which allowed Evil Geniuses' Tomi "lurppis" Kovanen to win a 1-on-3 situation when his opponents could not move. It is still unknown what the admins will rule on this matter.

Players wait for problem fix

The stage match between mousesports and oXmoze is currently the only encounter that is live, the other two matches are expected to be resumed any time soon.

mTw are leading 6-3 on de_inferno, while Evil Geniuses are up 13-12 on de_train.
