FURIA Esports are the first team eliminated from the Bukovel Minor


The WePlay! Bukovel Minor had been in full swing all day and the final series of the day would see the first team eliminated from Group B as Nigma and FURIA Esports went head-to-head. While the South American team of FURIA were considered heavily the underdogs, especially in such a tough group, Nigma were dismantled by Fighting PandaS earlier in the day – which put them in a very dangerous spot at the Minor. While it would still be an extremely tough series for FURIA, they had a chance to give themselves a brief respite in Bukovel. As expected, Nigma were able to take the first game of the series but it was not for a lack of FURIA fighting...

Competing in the IEM Katowice closed qualifier, Complexity went 4-0 in maps in best-of-three victories of the new Gen.G lineup and Chaos. The first series was against Gen.G and both teams were looking to prove themselves.
