Season 4 of the North American Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Pro League is well underway as more matches are played and teams begin to separate themselves in the standings. Cloud9 is sitting in first with an amazing 10-0 win-streak, but North American frontrunners SK Gaming have yet to play any games. Here’s everything that happened in Week 2 and next week’s schedule.
TUESDAY
Week 2 started off strong for Splyce as they secured the first win of the day 16-14 against Complexity Gaming.

Complexity earned some league points of their own, returning the favor and defeating Splyce 16-11 in Game 2.
Immortals then took down eUnited 16-10, who then answered back in a crazy upset with a 16-10 win of their own.

WEDNESDAY
After taking a game off of Immortals on Tuesday, eUnited couldn’t maintain their momentum and fell to OpTic Gaming twice the following day. But their one Week 2 win gave them three league points and moved them up to 11th place in the standings.
Immortals on the other hand did not take their loss lightly and went on to regroup and dominate Splyce first 16-7 and then 16-4.
