The veteran slayer produced a 39\/22 scoreline in the first map as Splyce began the series with a 250-214 victory on Sainte Marie du Mont Hardpoint. Tommey then went 10\/4 to lead Splyce to a 6-3 win on Ardennes Forest Search and Destroy. But FaZe responded with an impressive 4-3 win in overtime on London Docks Capture the Flag.

The Green Wall then took a back-and-forth 6-4 victory on London Docks Search and Destroy behind Scump's 12\/5 performance.
