At one point, the favorites were down 7-2, but managed to come back slightly, ending the first half just two points down at 5-7.<\/p>\n<p>Brazen continued to stage an impressive comeback, clawing their way to 7-7. The advantage was then traded back and forth in the following rounds, until both teams were locked in at 10-10.<\/p>\n<p>Lard continued to apply pressure, keeping the usually confident Brazen off-balance with well placed grenades and gutsy determination. When they managed to take the lead at 11-10, Brazen called a time out. At this point Lard&rsquo;s momentum seemed to be destined to propel them to victory, but it was not to be, as Brazen managed to gather themselves in the time out and came back hard.<\/p>\n<p>The time-out allowed Brazen to reformulate their strategy and disrupt Lard&rsquo;s momentum. The team managed to take two consecutive rounds following the break, leading Lard 12-11. At this point Lard called their own time-out, which ultimately proved futile as following the break Brazen took the final round ending the game 13-11.<\/p>\n<p>The final round culminated in three Brazen players hunting the last remaining Lard player; Greg &#8216;Bambi&#8217;s Revenge&#8217; Ireland. A well placed shot from Max &#8216;fAiTh&#8217; Mclaughlin&rsquo;s desert eagle pistol ended BFB Lard&rsquo;s hopes at a victory.<\/p>\n<p>Brazen receive a cash prize of R25 000 from Telkom DoGaming as well as hardware prizes sponsored by Logitech.
