The Brazilians were able to qualify for the majors at the last minute. FURIA Esports finished seventh at the American RMR, beating M80 2:0. KSCERATO and company passed the qualifiers with great difficulty this time, they had never had such difficulties on their way to the majors before. However, there are hopes for FURIA Esports before the tournament in Shanghai.
First, the Brazilians are finally showing positive winrate on the tier-1 stage. In the fall, the team played seventeen series, of which they won eleven. In October, FURIA Esports played in front of its home fans in Rio, where they finished 3-4th. In the group, they outplayed Natus Vincere and FaZe - teams from the top-10 of HLTV. Secondly, the team leaders - KSCERATO and yuurih - approached the major in China in a stable form. At RMR, both were among the top 10 players in the individual rankings with 1.22 and 1.25 HLTV scores, respectively. FURIA Esports is dependent on the performance of these guys, although skullz and chelo bring good impact.
The Brazilians are not a contender to win a major, but they are capable of making it to the main stage of the tournament. FURIA Esports is always in the top 16 of the majors, no matter if the team starts from the main stage or the preliminary stage. FURIA Esports knows how to prepare for the majors and perform at them, and this is the main argument in favor of the Brazilian team.
GamerLegion
The team sensationally passed the European RMR. After the first day of play GamerLegion were 0:2 down after failing in bo1 roulette, but then won four bo3s in a row, including sending home Team Falcons with s1mple and BetBoom Team with nafany. GamerLegion is on a morale boost and wants to continue writing beautiful history in Shanghai.
The main star in the team is Russian FL4MUS. Timur showed a very strong performance on RMR: 1.23 HLTV rating, 87 damage per round, IMPACT score of 1.41. FL4MUS took the decisive game with Unity Esports for the exit, took the series with Team Falcons and BetBoom Team on his shoulders. In a similar vein, we can also mention sl3nd - his personal stats are slightly lower than FL4MUS's, but the sniper didn't make a decisive impact in important matches either. GamerLegion in bo3 wins its mappings 100% of the time, choosing Mirage, Vertigo or Ancient. Vertigo has special hopes because few teams pick this map on a regular basis, and the Legionnaires play it in their mappings.
GamerLegion relied on young guys. The organization believed in the progress of the team, but did not expect a pass at the major in China. They knocked out serious tags, but all opponents had internal problems. FURIA Esports is also in the cohort of teams with non-ideal play, but here again bo1, and aggressive Brazilians. The match will not be easy for FL4MUS team.
