BIG advanced to the grand final of the IEM Sydney Europe Closed Qualifier through the upper bracket as they beat Valiance, HellRaisers, and 3DMAX 2-1. G2, on the other hand, became their opponents after defeating 3DMAX in the consolidation final.

The German team had an automatic 1-0 advantage in the best-of-five grand final as they progressed through the upper bracket. Things got even better for BIG as they had an 8-1 start on their T-side on Cache. Fatih "⁠gob b⁠" Dayik & company finished the half 9-6 ahead and closed out the map 16-8, making it 2-0 in the series as Ismailcan "⁠XANTARES⁠" Dörtkardeş posted a 2.21 rating.

The series continued on Dust2 where G2 started on the T-side. The game was tied at 5-5 in the early stages but BIG ran away with the half, leading 10-5 at halftime. BIG's second pistol victory paved the way for a quick 3-0 series victory as the German team won the map 16-12. With this victory, BIG have secured their place at IEM Sydney 2019.
