Virtus.Pro has taken out the Crown Casino Counter-Strike Global Offensive $55,555 Invitational hosted by ESL Australia in Melbourne.
After upsetting Cloud9 on Friday, Team Immunity were up against Polish heavyweights Virtus.Pro in the finals. With everything looking very one-sided at the start of the first round, Team Immunity made their way back showing the visitors local Australian CSGO talent. Despite their effort, Immunity couldn’t overtake Virtus.Pro going down 2-0.
