mouz win Hitbox Arena 2 over fnatic

Hitbox Arena Championship 2 has come to an end with mousesports topping fnatic 2-1 in the grand final (5-16 on de_mirage, 16-9 on de_cache, 16-12 on de_dust2) and taking home the $1,750 prize.

mousesports and fnatic topped their respective groups in the first stage of Hitbox Arena Championship 2, and eventually both made it to the grand final.

In the semis the Swedes beat myXMG 2-1 win while playing with Jonatan "⁠Devilwalk⁠" Lundberg as a stand-in, while mouz bested London Conspiracy 2-0.

The grand final saw Freddy "⁠KRIMZ⁠" Johansson back in the squad, and it started with the ESL One Cologne runners-up storming through de_mirage for a 16-5 win. Then Aleksi "⁠allu⁠" Jalli & co. evened it out with 16-9 victory on de_cache, and the deciding map de_dust2 continued with mouz on form.

They won the CT side 9-6 and later went up 14-6, when the Swedes finally woke up and started mounting a comeback. But then an eco round at 15-12 slipped away after three kills by Chris "⁠chrisJ⁠" de Jong, and that saw mouz run away with the $1,750 prize from this online tournament.
