Individual skill is a big part of video games, one team that displays this amount of skill is titan.Titan are a french team that have been thrown into the spot light after some of their most notable events, such as Dream Hack Stockholm and ESL Pro League 2015.

They took the first map with a scoreline of 16-4.On the second map first half LDLC man handled Titan. they looked focused and stronger but in the second half titan came back with a determination to win. LDLC had no way to counter the tactics of their french rivals and eventually lost the game with a score line of 19-15.
