Ninjas in Pyjamas are through to the grand final of Swedish Championship after beating Publiclir.se 2-0 (16-7 de_inferno_se, 16-9 de_nuke_se). They will be joined by Epsilon who edged Lemondogs 2-1 (9-16 de_dust2_se, 16-14 de_train_se, 16-13 de_mirage_ce).

Publiclir.se had the chance to avenge yesterday's loss in the main tournament, where Ninjas in Pyjamas made an unexpected comeback to win the match of two overtimes after 11-15 score.

The match started off on de_inferno_se, where Ninjas in Pyjamas were off to a great start as Counter-Terrorists thanks to Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg's clutch play in the first pistol round. Publiclir.se were not able to do much more after being down 5-10 at halftime and the first map ended at 7-16.

Richard "Xizt" Landström led his team to a quick 4-0 lead on de_nuke_se, this time starting as Terrorists. A few rounds went back and forth until Ninjas in Pyjamas secured a one round lead before switching sides. The second pistol round was all that was left for Publiclir.se, who were denied the grand final spot after losing 9-16.

The second semi-final started on de_dust2_se, which fit Lemondogs much better as they took a 1-0 lead with a 16-9 score. On de_train_se, Epsilon took the match to the third map with a close score 16-14. Everything was decided on de_mirage_ce, and it was Epsilon edging Lemondogs 16-13 to join Ninjas in Pyjamas in the grand final.
