Virtus.pro have secured third place at WESG 2016 World Finals and $200,000 in prizemoney with a straightforward 2-0 victory against Space Soldiers (Cobblestone 16-8, Nuke 16-6).
After Kinguin defeated Virtus.pro in two maps and Space Soldiers fell short against Envy in the semi-finals, it was time for the third-place decider, which had a $140,000 increase in prizemoney on the line.
