Frag eXecutors have crashed out of Arbalet Cup Europe 2010 following a 16-12 defeat at the hands of fnatic.
The Polish giants knew they had a mountain to climb as they would take on fnatic in one of their best maps, needing a win to progress to the next round.
Things didn't start well for FX, who lost the first three arounds after GeT_RiGhT had won the pistol round with four frags. But in the rest of the first half, the Poles, who were playing as CT, controlled the action as they picked up 10 rounds.
In the second half, fnatic looked determined to counter their opponents, and kept them off their bombsites in the first rounds to level the match on 10 rounds. It was at this point that we were forced to remove our own HLTV from the server due to DDoS attacks, for which we are sorry.
FX still tried to regain control of the match, but fnatic had the momentum now and so they kept their composure to win it 16-12 and secure top spot of Group D.
