The MongolZ have beaten FURIA in the seeding match of Group A at IEM Beijing to earn a spot in the semi-finals.
Even though the game was not for elimination, ending world number one FURIA's seven-game winning streak is a big achievement for the new-look MongolZ lineup.
It is testament to Erdenedalai "maaRaa" Bayanbat and Garidmagnai "bLitz" Byambasuren's endless ability to rebuild lineups back into playoff contenders, but this one might have been their least likely yet.
The series began with a Sodbayar "Techno" Munkhbold ace clutch, but a brilliant Danil "molodoy" Golubenko performance brought FURIA back into the game and eventually a 13-10 win.
It was then time for Cache, a map The MongolZ had lost four times in a row, with all signs leading towards a comfortable FURIA win.
But bLitz flipped the script with a brilliant performance. His Deagle 2k was followed up by a 1v2 clutch and he ended the map with a 1.97 rating.
On Dust2, it was usual star player Usukhbayar "910" Banzragch's turn to be the main character as he delivered 26 frags in regulation.
It was close all the way, with Mareks "YEKINDAR" Gaļinskis in good form with the Five-SeveN as always, but in the end The MongolZ were resilient enough to complete their statement win.
They will now join MOUZ in the semi-finals, having topped their respective groups.
