Following an opening-day loss, the Ukrainian organization responded with a convincing performance on Inferno and Ancient to improve to a 1-1 record, while Legacy dropped to 0-2 and moved to the brink of elimination.<\/p>\n<h3>Teams\u2019 road in Cologne<\/h3>\n<p>NAVI entered Stage 3 directly through the Valve Regional Standings. However, their campaign started with a disappointing defeat against Spirit, forcing them into the 0-1 pool. The victory over Legacy keeps the team alive and brings them back to an even 1-1 record.<\/p>\n<p>Legacy, meanwhile, were one of the biggest surprises of Stage 2. The Brazilians advanced with a 3-2 record after defeating FlyQuest, M80 and eventually TYLOO in the deciding match. However, Stage 3 has been far more difficult. After losing to MOUZ in the opening round and now falling to NAVI, Legacy sit at 0-2 and are one defeat away from elimination.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"article__content grid-cards-col xl-w-100\">\n    <p class=\"article-h3\">read more<\/p>\n    <div class=\"grid-1 gap-12 mb-12 load-parent xl-w-100\">\n        <div class=\"type3 y-red-dif hover-card card-more\">\n        <a class=\"type3__left up-to-card hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/furia-beat-mouz-iem-cologne-major-2026-stage-3\">\n        <div class=\"bg-bottom-abs-short\"> <\/div>\n        <picture class=\"picture object-fit-cover\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"picture__img object-fit-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/image_2026-06-12_15-30-52.png.webp\" alt=\"FURIA beat MOUZ and moved to 2:0 \u2014 IEM Cologne Major 2026 Stage 3\">\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/a>\n        <div class=\"type3__right main-structure p-20\">\n        <div class=\"type3__top\">\n            <a class=\"type3__title title-24 hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/furia-beat-mouz-iem-cologne-major-2026-stage-3\">FURIA beat MOUZ and moved to 2:0 \u2014 IEM Cologne Major 2026 Stage 3<\/a>\n            <a class=\"go-arrow hover-el\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\/furia-beat-mouz-iem-cologne-major-2026-stage-3\">\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__left go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1781076008#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__center go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1781076008#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"go-arrow__right go-arrow__part\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\">\n                        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/themes\/skinclub-v3\/assets\/images\/sprites\/main.stack.svg?v=1781076008#image-blue-arrow\"><\/use>\n                    <\/svg>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/a><\/div>\n        <div class=\"type3__bottom blue-labels mt-auto\">\n            <div class=\"blue-label disabled\">Jun 12<\/div>\n            <a class=\"blue-label\" href=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/en\/news\">News<\/a>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>NAVI dominate Legacy to return to winning ways<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_397923\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-397923\" style=\"width: 581px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-397923\" src=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Screenshot_473.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"581\" height=\"341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Screenshot_473.webp 581w, https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Screenshot_473-300x176.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 581px) 100vw, 581px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-397923\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Player statistics for the match \/\/ taken from HLTV<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Legacy selected Inferno, hoping to build on their impressive run from Stage 2, but NAVI quickly took control of the map.
