Natus VincereFor teams hovering near the cutoff, the last two weeks were nothing short of chaos. Squads scrambled across continents in search of the final few points that would secure their Major berth, with LAN events in Europe and the Americas becoming battlegrounds for dreams and heartbreak alike.
Among those to clutch a last-minute ticket to Budapest were PARIVISION, who edged out BetBoom at Majestic LanDaLan in Moscow. Over in South America, RED Canids and Fluxo earned crucial deep runs at Circuit X Season 1 in Curitiba, while fnatic took a bold transatlantic leap to claim the Fragadelphia Blocktober title over 9INE — a move that sealed their place among the elite.
