MIBR and Legacy First to Reach FISSURE Playground 3 Playoffs

MIBR and Legacy have become the first teams to secure spots in the FISSURE Playground 3 playoffs. Both South American sides won two matches in the upper brackets of their respective groups and will now play only for higher seeding.

In Group A, MIBR followed up their victory over The MongolZ with a convincing 2:0 win over 9z. The Brazilian team took Mirage 13:6 before closing out Nuke 13:7.

Lucas “nqz” Soares was the standout player of the series, finishing the match against his former team with a 1.31 rating. Felipe “insani” Yuji also made a strong contribution with a 1.25 rating.

MIBR will now play in the Group A upper bracket final against the winner of Astralis vs BETBOOM. That match will determine the team’s playoff seeding. 9z, meanwhile, will continue their tournament run through the lower bracket.

In Group B, Legacy secured their place in the next stage. After opening the tournament with a win over magic, the team had little trouble defeating Alliance 2:0.

Legacy quickly took control on Inferno and closed the map 13:4. Their advantage was just as clear on Dust2, where they won 13:6.

Three Legacy players finished the series with ratings above 1.40: latto at 1.48, dumau at 1.44, and try at 1.44. Alliance were unable to put up serious resistance, but they still have a chance to qualify for the playoffs through the lower bracket.
