Battling for Brazil, FURIA comes back stronger

They're not out just yet.

FURIA has not had the most success in recent times and they hoped to switch that up with ESL Pro League and what many believed to be an easier bracket. However, FURIA couldn't find themselves getting over Riders, but managed to bounce back against Grayhound. Against NIP, not many saw FURIA being able to have the success they've had in previous years, but it was up to Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato and his teammates to prove everyone wrong as they trounced the Swedes in a strong 2-0 victory.

The match began on NIP's choice of Mirage, where despite winning the pistol, FURIA were the ones to end up in control of the match as they took a 6-4 lead on the defense. NIP would strike back, however, as they ended up winning the first half 8-7. FURIA turned on another gear on their offense, with the Brazilians utterly dominating their T-side as they not only came back but cruised to a 16-12 win on their opponent's map.

Only needing one more map, FURIA went to Nuke where their strong offense would once again lead them to success. Building off of Mirage, the Brazilians came out swinging with a 7-3 lead, only to let it slip slightly to an 8-7 first-half victory. Despite that late half struggle, FURIA would not have any trouble on their second half as they breezed to a 14-10 lead and then a 16-12 map victory to bring their second BO3 win of the competition.

FURIA will now play Astralis in the Lower Final match, with the winner heading to the playoffs.
