The Ukrainian team Passion UA demonstrated an excellent performance at the European Pro League Season 19, ending the tournament with a convincing 3-0 victory over TSM in the grand final. Thanks to this success, the team won the top prize of $11,000.
In the final, Passion UA met TSM on three maps - Inferno, Vertigo, and Mirage. The Ukrainians prevailed on each of them, completing the maps with a score of 16:6, 13:4, and 13:2, respectively. ZeRRoFIX stood out as the MVP of the match for his outstanding individual performance, with 50 kills and a rating of 8.9. His confident play on all maps was key to Passion UA's dominance over their opponents.
Other players also made a significant contribution to the team's victory:
TSM, despite the efforts of players such as acoR and valde, could not find an answer to the well-coordinated play of the Ukrainians. The TSM captain, acoR, managed to score 32 kills, but this was not enough to change the course of the game. Player valde also tried to resist, earning 23 kills, but this was not enough to achieve a positive result.
