The Brazilian derby between FURIA and Legacy in the Group B upper bracket quarter-final at BLAST Open London 2025 turned into a tense clash that went all three maps. After trading victories on Inferno and Nuke, the decider Mirage was dominated by FURIA, who closed the series with a 2-1 scoreline. With this win, FURIA move forward in the upper bracket and edge closer to the final stage, while Legacy drop to the lower bracket and must now fight for survival.
Legacy fall in the series
The match began on Inferno, where the first half ended evenly at 6:6. However, after switching sides Legacy completely lost control and managed to secure only a single round, allowing FURIA to confidently close the map 13:7. On the second map, Nuke, Legacy looked far sharper: they won the first half 8:4 and continued to dictate the pace, sealing a 13:6 victory to tie the series.
The decider Mirage was all about FURIA, who immediately imposed their tempo and closed the first half 8:4 in their favor. After the side switch, Legacy once again faltered on defense, taking just one round, while the Brazilians closed the map 13:5. The final score in the series was 2:1 for FURIA, who advance further in Group B’s upper bracket.
