In September 2025, Legacy won Mirage 13:11 and Dust2 13:9, taking two maps in a row at ESL Pro League Season 22 Stage 1.<\/p>\n
The previous series at BLAST Open London 2025 ended in favor of FURIA, 2:1. FURIA won Mirage 13:5 and Inferno 13:7, while Legacy took Nuke 13:6. The head-to-head history shows a fairly close matchup, and Legacy\u2019s map advantage remains minimal.<\/p>\n
CURRENT FORM<\/strong><\/h2>\nFURIA \u2014 a strong path to the Semi-finals and a loss to FUT
\nFURIA had a convincing run before the match for third place. The team defeated G2 2:1 and Aurora 2:1 in the Playoffs, and before that also beat G2 2:1 and Wildcard 13:10. FUT were the team that managed to stop the Brazilian roster in the Semi-finals, winning the series 2:1.<\/p>\n
Among the listed players, KSCERATO has the best individual numbers with a 1.17 rating over the last three months. He records 0.74 kills per round, has 76.4% KAST, and 77.5 ADR. Together with molodoy, yuurih, FalleN, and YEKINDAR, he forms a roster that has enough individual strength to win a Bo3.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/community.skin.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/HQV_TlLW8AAILl_.jpg\")

\nLegacy became one of the main surprises of this stage of the tournament. In the Round of 16, the team defeated Natus Vincere 2:0, and then advanced past Falcons in the Quarter-finals by the same score. Their winning streak was stopped only by Spirit, who closed Legacy 2:0 in the Semi-finals.<\/p>\n
The main individual threat remains try. Over the last three months, he has a 1.24 rating, 0.78 kills per round, and 84.4% KAST, although his ADR is 75.7. Legacy have already shown that n1ssim, dumau, arT, latto, and try can work effectively against teams of the highest level, so the underdog status in this series remains relative.<\/p>\n
MAP POOL & VETO<\/strong><\/h2>\nStatistics over the last 3 months (FURIA | Legacy):<\/p>\n
\n- Cache: \u2014 | \u2014<\/li>\n
- Dust2: 67% | 62%<\/li>\n
- Mirage: 67% | 80%<\/li>\n
- Inferno: 50% | 86%<\/li>\n
- Nuke: 80% | 25%<\/li>\n
- Ancient: 67% | 40%<\/li>\n
- Anubis: 0% | \u2014<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Expected veto:<\/p>\n
\n- Legacy will logically try to remove Nuke. FURIA have an 80% win rate on this map across five matches, while Legacy have won only 25% of four played maps. This is the most obvious statistical imbalance in the map pool in FURIA\u2019s favor.<\/li>\n
- FURIA, in turn, have reasons to avoid Inferno. Legacy have won 86% of seven matches on this map, while FURIA\u2019s figure is only 50%. Allowing Legacy to get Inferno as a comfortable pick in a Bo3 would be a serious risk.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Likely maps:<\/p>\n
\n- Mirage looks like one of the most realistic choices for Legacy. The team has an 80% win rate across five maps against FURIA\u2019s 67%. In addition, it was on Mirage that Legacy won the latest head-to-head map between the teams \u2014 13:11.<\/li>\n
- Ancient may become one of the options for FURIA if Nuke is blocked. The Brazilians have a 67% win rate on Ancient against Legacy\u2019s 40%. Dust2 looks like the most neutral option, with figures of 67% and 62% respectively.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
KEY DUELS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n- KSCERATO vs try \u2014 the main individual matchup of the match between the two most stable players on both teams over the last three months.<\/li>\n
- molodoy vs n1ssim \u2014 a duel in which opening frags and aggressive openings can significantly affect the structure of rounds.<\/li>\n
- yuurih vs latto \u2014 a rifle matchup important for space control and converting key situations in the middle of rounds.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
