G2 Esports' Richard "shox" Papillon and Kenny "kennyS" Schrub have won the HTC 2v2 Invitational after defeating North's Philip "aizy" Aistrup & René "cajunb" Borg in the final.

The French duo got off on the wrong foot in Bucharest, losing out to Space Soldiers' Ismailcan "⁠XANTARES⁠" Dörtkardeş and Buğra "⁠Calyx⁠" Arkın in their opening match, but still finished top two in the group after defeating EnVyUs' Adil "⁠ScreaM⁠" Benrlitom and Vincent "⁠Happy⁠" Schopenhauer, and Heroic's Jakob "⁠JUGi⁠" Hansen and Nikolaj "⁠niko⁠" Kristensen. 

A 2-0 victory over FaZe's Nikola "⁠NiKo⁠" Kovač and Håvard "⁠rain⁠" Nygaard in the semi-finals then followed, with a 2-1 win against North's Philip "⁠aizy⁠" Aistrup and René "⁠cajunb⁠" Borg assuring them of a spot in the final.
