FURIA fights off Complexity to lock in Major Qualification
The Brazilians were on another level against the NA team.
FURIA is now 3-0 at the Americas RMR event in Bucharest and will face MIBR in a direct battle for a seed in the legends stage at the PGL Major in Antwerpen.
Their victory against Complexity was established on Ancient, where a strong CT side broke the NA team, who lost their map pick 16-7. Another defeat on Ancient for Complexity who have recently lost four times on the map at ESL Pro League. Perhaps it is time for a new map pick?
Vertigo on the other hand has been a safe ground for FURIA, who had a 100% win rate going into the second map. Here the new AWP'er Rafael 'saffee' Costa came in clutch for FURIA and again showed, that the future is promising for the Brazilian roster. Complexity did everything they could on Vertigo but had to accept a defeat in the end after losing several clutch situations.
FURIA - Complexity 2-0
At the bottom of the group, Leviatan and TeamOne fought for their lives in an early elimination match. Here TeamOne prevailed and knocked out the Argentinians, who leaves the RMR tournament empty-handed without a victory.
Leaviatan - TeamOne 0-2
