Legacy FURIA-Proofs Itself as CS2 Contender
Legacy CS2 team made history by defeating FURIA for the second time in less than three weeks at FISSURE Playground #3 on September 10, 2026. The Brazilian team has been on a roll since their formation just over three years ago and is now sitting at number eight in the world rankings.
The $1 million prize pool at FISSURE was just one of several high-stakes matches Legacy competed in, having swept Alliance 2-0 on September 9. Their win against FURIA, featuring decorated players such as FalleN, YEKINDAR, and KSCERATO, marks a significant upset for the Brazilian team.
Legacy's arT and dumau have proven themselves to be a formidable duo, with aggressive in-game leadership from arT creating chaos on the server. The win over FURIA at EWC on August 23, where Legacy claimed third place and $190,000 in prize money, was initially seen as a one-off but is now looking more like a pattern.
The team's rise to prominence has been nothing short of meteoric, from their formation after the Brazilian division of 00 Nation split apart to their current ranking. Legacy's continued success at FISSURE Playground #3 could earn them even more prize money and solidify their position in the CS2 world rankings.
