Aurora beat FURIA to qualify for Spodek

Gabriel "⁠FalleN⁠" Toledo and company drop into the 2-2 pool, where big names like Spirit and PARIVISION are also waiting. The match began on Dust2, where a back-and-forth first half was followed up by FURIA 's T-side dominance.

Aurora were only able to win two rounds on their defense as Kaike "⁠KSCERATO⁠" Cerato led the way with a 2.22 T-side rating, allowing FURIA to take their opponents map pick with a 13-8 scoreline.

Aurora answered on Mirage, however, finding themselves 12-5 up after a dominant performance before losing a 2vs5 post-plant. That shook their confidence and meant they had some issues closing it out.

Ali "⁠Wicadia⁠" Haydar Yalçın 's 1vs2 got them over the line, though, as Yuri "⁠yuurih⁠" Santos disconnected due to switching teams by mistake .

The Turkish rifler kept up a fantastic performance on Nuke, winning a superb 1vs4 and finishing the map with 23 kills, 109.5 ADR, and a 1.51 rating.

FURIA equalized out of the gate in the second half after winning pistols and ran away, giving up just two disjointed rounds on the way to a 13-7 victory to set up the possibility for a 2-0 on their Inferno pick.

9z once again got a jump on FURIA in the pistols, this time with an Ignacio "⁠meyern⁠" Meyer 1v2 pistol clutch, but FURIA won the forcebuy with the money from their plant and went on a six-round streak before they could be stopped.

A FalleN USP triple after a 9-3 half put FURIA in double digits, after which they cruised to a comfortable 13-3 victory to end the game and secure their spot in the eight-team playoff bracket.
