mousesports and FlipSid3 further complicate ELEAGUE's Group E by also trading maps in the next set of matches (19-16 on Train for mouz and 16-6 on Cobblestone for FlipSid3).

The fifth week of ELEAGUE's group play continued with a Group E showdown between MOUZ and FlipSid3, two European teams who have a long history of going the long mile when playing against each other.

A triple kill from mousesports star Nikola "⁠NiKo⁠" Kovač quickly gave the mostly German team an early lead on Train, but it was actually FlipSid3 who came out swinging with the superior T-side and finished the half up 9-6 (which included Yegor "⁠markeloff⁠" Markelov pulling off a triple kill clutch on the final round of the half).

chrisJ played a large role in mouz's overtime win on Train

FlipSid3 claimed the second pistolround on their CT side due to time running out and Andrey "⁠B1ad3⁠" Gorodenskiy's team moved up to 12-7 before the pace of the game slowed and mouz slowly began to crawl their way back, helped by actions from NiKo and Timo "⁠Spiidi⁠" Richter.

With the score at 12-12, FlipSid3 managed to win a force buy with just P250s and Five-Sevens and the next round saw veteran markeloff pick up a quad kill with the AWP and moved FlipSid3 forward to 14-12 and thus force a timeout. Despite FlipSid3 taking match point, mousesports fought back and a quad kill from Chris "⁠chrisJ⁠" de Jong brought the game to overtime.

Overtime was mouz's court and ball as the German-Dutch-Bosnian team simply outclassed FlipSid3 and took the first map in the best-of-two 19-16.

The second map was Cobblestone and FlipSid3 took the first pistolround on their CT-side before mousesports picked up the first gunround and seemed poised to equalise. However, FlipSid3 still bought up and a triple kill from Georgi "⁠WorldEdit⁠" Yaskin saw the Ukrainian-Russian-Finn team pull ahead, going up as far as 8-1 before a pause halted the momentum of the first half.

With WorldEdit constantly picking up kills on FlipSid3's defense (and Jan "⁠wayLander⁠" Rahkonen not far behind), FlipSid3 ultimately finished the first half up 10-5 (although a late mousesports comeback courtesy of NiKo and chrisJ did net them a couple of rounds).

WorldEdit had a throwback performance on Cobblestone 

FlipSid3 simply proved to be the better side on Cobblestone however as the second half saw them win the T-side pistolround and claim the nearly all the remaining rounds to take the map 16-6.
