The winning streak ended for G2 in the upper bracket semifinals of Group A at EPL Season 17, where the team lost to Cloud9.

Factors that influenced Cloud9's success

Perhaps the main reason for G2's defeat was the form in which Cloud9's sniper Dmitry sh1ro Sokolov approached the match. The score of duels against all G2 players was in his favor. It was toughest for HooXi and NiKo to face him. Conversely, Kovacs struggled to win duels against all members of the Cloud9 lineup except for buster. The Bosnian player also played 30% worse than his usual form.
