Lynn Vision have captured hearts thanks to EmiliaQAQ's interviews at the BLAST.tv Austin Major, and now they've captured a spot in Stage 3, too.
Advancing after taking down B8 2-1, it's the first time a Chinese team has been in the last 16 of a Major since TYLOO at the FACEIT London Major in 2018.
Let's take a look at how they did it.
Lynn Vision got off to a flying start on Dust2, winning the map 13-2.
They were dominant from the start, z4kr hit some mean Scout shots to secure them a third round.
10-2 at the half thanks to 14 T side kills from C4LLM3SU3, their energy in the second half pistol round was infectious, and the win in the round set them up to take the map with ease.
B8 came back into the series in a big way on Ancient, kensizor and esenthial combined for 23 kills on their T side to give the ukrainians a commanding 9-3 lead at the half.
Lynn Vision were deadly on their own T side, though, Westmelon picked up a huge clutch to draw them close to leveling the score.
But B8 held their composure, winning the next three rounds to take the map 13-9 with kensizor topfragging on 20 kills.
Sent to Anubis for the decider, Lynn Vision picked up the opening round thanks to a Dualie 4K out of C4LLM3SU3.
B8 kept the opening exchanges close, though, but Lynn Vision picked up an eco round to begin to take the game away from them.
9-4 down, B8 had a fantastic opportunity to secure a fifth round, but a 2v4 from Starry and C4LLM3SU3 instead gave Lynn Vision a 10th.
Lynn Vision brought the game to a close soon after, z4kr's top frag performance sent EmiliaQAQ into a frenzy, ensuring his place in Counter-Strike folklore forever. An icon, if we do say so ourselves.
