In Chengdu, China, the final match of the IEM Chengdu tournament for Counter-Strike 2 took place.

In the final, FaZe Clan and MOUZ faced off. FaZe chose Overpass as the first map and displayed confidence right from the start. They dominated the match, leading 8:4 after the first half while playing on the attacking side. Despite giving up several rounds towards the end, the North Americans secured a 13:10 victory.

After a brief pause, the teams moved on to Nuke, the map chosen by the German team. FaZe continued their strong performance, leading 6:0 while attacking. However, after a timeout by their opponents, MOUZ fought back, ending the first half at 8:4. Despite a relatively close contest towards the end, FaZe's advantage allowed them to clinch victory on their opponent's map, resulting in a final score of 13:6.
