The match between Passion UA and MIBR had a myriad of clutches go in favor of the former team.

In-game leader Rodyon "fear" Smyk and the rifler Nikita "jackasmo" Skyba had more than one highlight versus MIBR. Without them popping off, the Ukrainian team likely would not advance to the 2-1 pool.

It looked like the round was in Imperial's bag as FURIA practically had no time to plant the bomb on the A Site on Anubis.

The round would put Imperial on map point territory but Felipe "skullz" Medeiros crushed their hopes with a triple AK kill. Turns out that sometimes you don't need to plant the bomb at all.

FURIA went on to win the map, and push Imperial to the 0-2 pool of the Elimination Stage.

One of paiN Gaming's riflers, Kaue "kauez" Kaschuk, possibly made the best highlight of the whole Shanghai Major.

The youngster hit three crispy one-deags on an eco, and followed up with two quick M4A1-S kills to complete the ace against Imperial in the first match of the Opening Stage. The way he rushed Catwalk with the Desert Eagle in hand will definitely inspire our average matchmaking teammates.

AWP collaterals are just a beauty and paiN Gaming's young star João "snow" Vinicius hit one in a very difficult retake attempt against Imperial on Dust 2.

Had the Imperial players not aligned for snow, who knows if paiN would win the round or even the game as Imperial never recovered from it.

Twistzz crushes Cloud9 with an astonishing triple kill on Ancient

Liquid pulled a hell of a comeback against Cloud9 in the Shanghai Major Opening Stage first round. And, of course, the IGL and star Russel "Twistzz" Van Dulken played a huge part in it.

The "Magician" single-handedly retook Ancient's B Bombsite numerous times with doubles and triples, as shown in the clip below. This was Twistzz's best highlight because Liquid were 6-9 behind when he got an impossible triple kill.

Even though Fnatic only had pistols, we can't downplay Aran "Sonic" Groesbeek's ace versus them.

Had he not gotten the trade on Freddy "KRIMZ" Johansson and killed the players rushing Connector, Fnatic could have won the round and the series versus Wildcard in the first round.

That's all for now. Stay tuned to esports.gg for more Shanghai Major coverage.
