MOUZ has emerged victorious at Intel Extreme Masters (IEM) Beijing 2026, securing the Counter-Strike 2 championship with an impressive 3–0 victory over The MongolZ in the Grand Final on November 8.
The European roster delivered an exceptional performance throughout the competition, completing its championship campaign without conceding a single map. The achievement marks another major addition to the organization’s competitive record and its first ESL Pro Tour title since 2024.
The championship match began on Mirage, where MOUZ quickly established control and secured a commanding 13–5 victory. The team maintained its momentum on Dust2, overcoming The MongolZ with a 13–6 scoreline to move within one map of the trophy.
Inferno ultimately decided the series. MOUZ continued to dictate the pace of the match, closing out the final map 13–4 and completing a convincing sweep.
Dorian “xertioN” Berman played an important role in the team’s success, delivering strong individual performances and contributing to MOUZ’s consistent results throughout the tournament.
The road to the championship included victories over TYLOO, BetBoom Team, PARIVISION and The MongolZ. MOUZ maintained its unbeaten map record across these encounters, establishing one of the tournament’s defining achievements.
For The MongolZ, the result brought an end to a significant tournament campaign. The Mongolian squad had reached its first IEM Grand Final after defeating Natus Vincere in the semifinals, but struggled to counter MOUZ’s performance in the title match.
IEM Beijing 2026 featured 16 international teams competing for a combined $1.25 million in total winnings. The event also marked the tournament’s return to the Chinese capital for the first time since 2019.
The championship victory gives MOUZ its first point toward the ESL Grand Slam VII race, providing another incentive for the organization heading into future ESL competitions.
