In a thrilling match, paiN managed to eliminate 3DMAX from the BLAST.tv Austin Major with a 16-12 score on the second map, finishing with a 2-0 victory. After a shaky start, which had seen them struggle against opponents like G2 and Spirit, paiN’s Rodrigo “biguzera” Bittencourt and Bryan “Maka” Canda showcased incredible resilience and skill.

“paiN avoided having to play Ancient after an admirable comeback on Nuke.” Translation: paiN evaded playing on the Ancient map due to a strong rally during the Nuke match.

The journey of 3DMAX in this major began successfully, having beaten teams like BetBoom and FaZe, but subsequent matches proved tough as they faced setbacks. Their quest ended with insufficient wins against paiN after suffering losses to Natus Vincere and Vitality.
