Meanwhile, NAVI beat PARIVISION in the series of the day.
FUT continue upset run over FURIA
One of the best teams of late 2025 continues in free fall, as this time they were beaten by a young international squad. FURIA are ranked #2 in the world, while FUT are currently #15 after the win, on the VRS.
Dmytro ‘dem0n’ Myroshnychenko continued to show why he is one of the most touted prospects, completely destroying FURIA’s attack on Mirage.
After defeating Legacy, Liquid and now FURIA in a row, the youngsters on FUT will have a chance to qualify to their first big stage by beating G2 Esports tomorrow.
3DMAX ran over FaZe Clan
FaZe Clan eliminated 3DMAX from the Budapest Major only a few months ago. This time, the French side came back with a vengeance, utterly annihilating FaZe Clan’s prospects of an easy run to the stage.
They kept Finn ‘karrigan’ Andersen’s squad from getting 10 rounds across two maps, with usual superstar, Russel ‘Twistzz’ Van Dulken, getting only 10 kills.
Tides will have to change quickly on FaZe’s side if they want to play on the Polish stage, first by beating BC.Game in an elimination match on Monday.
Spirit and NAVI picked up hard-fought wins
Astralis had to play Team Spirit in the first round of IEM Krakow Stage 1, and were close to victory on the first map.
They managed to challenge Daniil ‘donk’ Kryshkovets’s side, thanks to exceptional fragging from Gytis ‘ryu’ Glušauskas. However, it was not enough to brush donk aside, as he took home Dust2 for Spirit by using the AWP.
On Overpass, Astralis’s pick, things were promising as they picked up 6 terrorist-side rounds. Again, it was the international signings shining. Spirit came back on their own T-side, and put away Astralis with efficiency.
On NAVI’s side, they faced a PARIVION that just did not give up. Despite losing the first map, they fought back on Anubis to take the map 19-16. However, NAVI showed their expertise on Ancient, closing out 13-5.
Astralis fight for their life tomorrow
Astralis will have to play the aforementioned PARIVISION. The last time these teams faced, it was PARIVISION who destroyed Astralis at the BLAST Bounty, albeit in an online match.
