FURIA Outdo Team Liquid at PGL Major Legends Stage Day 2

The Brazilians proved too much to handle for the NA boys as FURIA further improved their chances of making playoffs with a 2-1 score currently. They just need to win 1 more Bo3 to cement their place at the Avicii Arena.

Liquid meanwhile needs to think over things again as even a small hiccup could see them out of the Major so early.

MAP VETO

1. Liquid removed Nuke

2. Liquid removed Ancient

3. FURIA removed Dust2

4. FURIA removed Overpass

5. FURIA removed Vertigo

6. Liquid removed Mirage

7. Inferno was leftover

Both teams decided to play Inferno, having performed decently on it in recent times. Liquid lost the pistol but had a streak of 6 rounds in reply, courtesy of Jonathan ‘EliGE’ Jablonowski as he found openings on both bombsites to give his side an early advantage.

FURIA kept it close at the end and only allowed them 1 round more as they rounded out the half 8-7 in their favor.

FURIA then turned the tide in the best way possible, as new addition Andre ‘drop’ Abreu found entries on the B site with relative ease.

 Working with a man advantage so early, FURIA closed the map out in a comfortable fashion as they lost just 2 rounds on the T side, 16-9.


FURIA are one win away from playoffs, alongside Heroic, Copenhagen Flames and Gambit while Team Liquid are one loss away from bombing out, alongside FaZe Clan, Astralis and Virtus.pro.

Gambit Made to Sweat vs Virtus.pro On Day 2 of Legends Stage at PGL Major

Gambit barely scraped through on Vertigo vs CIS rivals Virtus.pro in the 1-1 Bracket at the Legends Stage of the PGL Major. They trailed most of the game until the 28th round, where all the members came alive for the 2nd best team of 2021. Up until that point it was only Abay ‘hobbit’ Khasenov who had been leading the lines in the fragging department, after a miserable start to the second half.

MAP VETO

1. Virtus.pro removed Ancient

2. Virtus.pro removed Overpass

3. Gambit removed Inferno

4. Gambit removed Mirage

5. Gambit removed Dust2

6. Virtus.pro removed Nuke

7. Vertigo was left over

Virtus.pro interestingly decided to play Vertigo, after they decided not to veto Nuke, thinking Gambit would but they didn’t either leaving VP in a sticky situation. They had to opt for Gambit’s best map, Vertigo.


Gambit received a shock loss vs Entropiq yesterday, where they couldn’t post a single T side round and lost all the 10 rounds of the half. Today was different as they started with a pistol win. VP went on a streak of their own after the first 2 but that was quickly remedied by veteran and Major winner ‘hobbit’. His impact kills on the A ramp secured a much needed 8 rounds on the T side as Gambit switched to the T side.

After winning the pistol, Gambit lost all the team as a team once up 11-8 was down 11-14 and with the economy against them. VP had great executes on both the sites and with a player always lurking MID it was a huge nuisance for Gambit.

It wasnt until round 26 that Gambit turned up the heat, with IGL Vladislav ‘nafany’ Gorshkov locking down the A ramp alongside AWPer ‘sh1ro’. Gambit went on a streak of 5 to close the map 16-14. Hobbit stood out with a massive 39 kills in 30 rounds and 118.5 ADR.

Gambit are up 2-1 alongside Copenhagen Flames and will play their next game tomorrow against another opponent uo 2-1. VP are down 1-2 and all of their games will be Bo3 elimination matches, i.e. if they lose theyre out of the Major.

Ashe does not do the best in terms of damage, but is great in terms of crowd control and helping your team kill the enemies.

Hawkshot – Fires a hawk spirit that can travel infinitely far and briefly reveals units it flies over. You can also recast the ability as it’s flying and Hawkshot explodes, granting vision of the area around it for a few seconds. Units caught in the initial explosion are revealed for a longer time.

Enchanted Crystal Arrow – Ashe launches a crystal arrow of ice that stuns the first champion hit dealing magic damage to all nearby enemies. The stun increases with the distance of the arrow’s flight.

In Wild Rift, you can re-cast the ability but holding the button to steer the arrow’s flight path. The arrow can only deviate from its original launch angle by a fixed amount but it’s still really effective. You can also tap the cancel button to stop steering.

Virtus.pro outlast Team Spirit packing

On the Swiss round 4 qualification match at PGL Major Stockholm, VP took on Team Spirit where the winner will make it to the New Legends Stage over the other. Both teams came into the match with a 2-1 record and shot at securing a place in the next stage. VP picked Inferno and Spirit went for Ancient with Overpass left if needed.

Inferno(VP 16-7 Spirit):

A strong T side to kick things off for Virtus.pro, going all the way till 8 rounds in a map widely considered to be favoring the Counter Terrorists. Trading rounds in the entirity of the first half, pushed Spirit’s back to the wall.

CT side from VP had answers to eveything Spirit threw at them. Making it quick, a VP were quick to shut down evey attempt Spirit made, thus ending the match with a quick 16-7 scoreline.

Anceint(VP 12-16 Spirit):

VP brought their confidence over from Inferno, going 7-0 up before Spirit were able to answer back. Jame and co. seemd to be running away with the game before Spirit found themselves on the board, eventually crawled back up to end the half with a fair 10-5 scoreline.

The Defense from Team Spirit was arguable some the best Counter Strike they have played all tournamnet, with on point reads and a few timing and clutches going in their favor, they were able to put together a comeback. Following a pistol round defeat, Spirit let one more round slip before closing the map 16-12.

Overpass(VP 19-15 Spirit):

A CIS special in Overpass was wisely left by both teams as the decider. A quick 3-0 start for VP off the back of a psitol round victory, with Spirit quickly getting on board to make it a very competitive first half.

Spirit off the back of a pistol victory reached a lead of 7 rounds, trailing VP with a 14-7 scoreline where VP showed enough resilience to make a comeback and push it to overtime. Once OT kicked off, Spirit stood no chance and VP took it home in a very one sided fashion, 19-15.
