Não Tem Como defeat FURIA to claim Americas Minor spot
Não Tem Como have emerged on top of the first South America open qualifier for the Americas Minor of the FACEIT Major 2018, and hence have secured a spot for themselves at the Minor.
It was practically an all-Brazilian affair in the latter stages of the qualifier, as the Argentines of Isurus were the only team making it through from a different country. NTC's path was relatively easy up until the final, playing mostly unknown teams.
When it came down to the final, NTC deftly dispatched of FURIA, with Yuri "yuurih" Santos and his team not managing to reach double digits on either map. Lincoln "fnx" Lau led the way for his team in the final, but it was in-game leader Bruno "bit" Lima who was the highest rated player of the qualifier.
