Ghost are simply not of the same level as the other teams that participated in cs_summit 4 and Renegades had to play with a stand-in, which greatly hindered their performance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/\/predictions\/\" title=\"Latest esports betting tips\">ESPORTS BETTING PREDICTIONS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On the other side, Team Vitality finished the group in first place with a 3-2-0 record and 24 points &#8211; six points above Team Liquid, who entered the tournament as favourites. Still, the French team had it all to do.<\/p>\n<p>The semi-finals featured Team Vitality vs ENCE and Team Liquid vs NRG Sports. Liquid managed to defeat NRG 2-0, while the match between Vitality and ENCE proved to be closer than expected. Vitality lost the first map 14-16 but managed to get back up with a convincing 16-8 result on Overpass and a close yet impressive 19-15 win in the deciding map, Inferno.<\/p>\n\n<!-- Table view: sport-cards -->\n\n<div class=\"dc-table-card\">\n            <div class=\"card\">\n                        <h3>BetOnline<\/h3>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\"\n               title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\"\n            >\n                <img class=\"logo-bookie lazyload\" alt='BetOnline'\n                     title='Play at BetOnline'\n                     data-src='https:\/\/esportbet.com\/data-central\/images\/casinos\/hb-logo\/betonlinesport.jpg' src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\"><noscript><img class=\"logo-bookie\" alt='BetOnline'\n                     title='Play at BetOnline'\n                     src='https:\/\/esportbet.com\/data-central\/images\/casinos\/hb-logo\/betonlinesport.jpg'><\/noscript>\n\n            <\/a>\n            <div class=\"bonus\">\n                <h4>$5,000<\/h4>\n                <p>50% matched deposit up to USD $5,000<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"term-txt\">\n               <p>\n               <a  href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"t-c-link\"> <\/a>\n                <\/p>\n            <\/div>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/sites\/betonline\/\"\n               title=\"BetOnline review\"\n               class=\"review-link\">read review<\/a>\n\n\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/betonline\/\"\n               class=\"call-to-action\"\n               title=\"Claim bonus at BetOnline\"\n               target=\"_blank\">Bet Now <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"card\">\n                        <h3>Bovada<\/h3>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/bovada-esport\/\"\n               title=\"Claim bonus at Bovada\"\n            >\n                <img class=\"logo-bookie lazyload\" alt='Bovada'\n                     title='Play at Bovada'\n                     data-src='https:\/\/esportbet.com\/data-central\/images\/casinos\/hb-logo\/bovadasport.jpg' src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\"><noscript><img class=\"logo-bookie\" alt='Bovada'\n                     title='Play at Bovada'\n                     src='https:\/\/esportbet.com\/data-central\/images\/casinos\/hb-logo\/bovadasport.jpg'><\/noscript>\n\n            <\/a>\n            <div class=\"bonus\">\n                <h4>$250<\/h4>\n                <p>Claim a 50% deposit bonus up to the value of USD $250<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"term-txt\">\n               <p>\n               <a  href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"t-c-link\"> <\/a>\n                <\/p>\n            <\/div>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/sites\/bovada\/\"\n               title=\"Bovada review\"\n               class=\"review-link\">read review<\/a>\n\n\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/go\/bovada-esport\/\"\n               class=\"call-to-action\"\n               title=\"Claim bonus at Bovada\"\n               target=\"_blank\">Bet Now <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n\n<p>That left us with the two finalists: Team Liquid, who we all expected to see in the grand finals; and Team Vitality, who had an impressive run behind them and the hardest task right in front of them.<\/p>\n<p>The grand finals began on Nuke, which was the map where Vitality celebrated a convincing 16-3 win against Team Liquid in the group stage. While we did not expect to see a repeat, the start of the map surely caused TL some flashbacks to day two of the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>It did not take long for Vitality to get a 5-1 lead, which soon turned into a 15-4 advantage. Trailing by 11 points, Liquid managed to hold on for five more rounds, but in the end it was Team Vitality who secured a 16-9 win.<\/p>\n<p>The second map was Overpass, which looked far better from Team Liquid&#8217;s perspective. The NA team started well and got out to a 3-0 lead, but they once again crumbled under pressure and let Vitality run away with it. Before the home side realised what was happening, it was already half-time and they were 11-4 down.<\/p>\n<p>The second half saw Liquid rising and slowly catching up to Vitality, but it was too late and too little. Team Vitality finished the series with a 16-13 victory and their fourth map win against Team Liquid for the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>The cs_summit 4 MVP award went to Mathieu &#8216;ZywOo&#8217; Herbaut, who came out of the finals with an impressive 1.44 HLTV rating.<\/p>\n<p><center><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/news\/\" title=\"Latest esports news\">MORE ESPORTS NEWS<\/a><\/strong><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A dominant performance against the favourites saw Vitality win the cs_summit 4 title in Los Angeles and take home $64,000 in prize money.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":7457,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[508,632,626,4,128,187],"class_list":["post-7456","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-counter-strike","tag-cs_summit","tag-cs-go","tag-featured","tag-team-liquid","tag-vitality"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7456"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/19"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7456"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7456\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14542,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7456\/revisions\/14542"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7457"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7456"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7456"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7456"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
