In the upper bracket final, fnatic stopped WinFakt's run and defeated them in two maps, 16-10 on de_nuke and 16-3 on de_train. They will now be waiting for their grand final opponent where they only need to win one map to win the whole tournament.

Copenhagen Games 2012 upper bracket final between the surprise of the day, WinFakt, and fnatic began on de_nuke. The Swedish-Danish squad had the opportunity to start on the favored CT-side and they took home the pistol-round. However, WinFakt retaliated right away with a semi-buy and evened the score, similarly to their SK encounter. Two ecos followed by fnatic before they were back in action to bring the score to 3-2 in favor of the Finns.

WinFakt took the match in their hands from this point on and increased their lead to 7-2, quite satisfying for the attacking side. However, fnatic was not disheartened and now they started putting rounds together, ending up with the minimal lead at the half and going into the second part with the upper hand morale-wise.

The second half began similarly to the first one, this time with WinFakt winning the CT pistol, and then fnatic replying with a second round semi-buy win. After two eco rounds, we saw the first full buy round which fnatic came out on top of, securing them a 13-8 lead shortly after. Several rounds were then exchanged and fnatic found themselves on match point at 15-10, largely thanks to some great individual play by Andreas "MODDII" Fridh. They had no trouble converting the last round and the Swedish-Danish team secured the first map 16-10.

The next map was de_train, where fnatic started on the Terrorist side and won the pistol, which soon gave them a 3-0 lead. The first buy round also went in their favor and they were quickly 5-0 ahead. In the next round WinFakt was still unable to get onto the scoreboard, but the seventh round finally went to them.

The Finns had however not been able to put up a good fight anymore, as fnatic continued dominating and went up 8-1 and then 9-2. Aleksi "allu" Jalli won a 1vs1 situation to get his team their third round and almost repeated the same in the next one. However, it was Richard "Xizt" Landström who converted his 1vs3 situation with 4hp, making Jalli unable to defuse by less than a second.

If fnatic wasn't safe then, they surely were when the half ended, as the result stood 12-3 in their favor following the attacking side, and the second half was just a formality before they won the map 16-3.
