Brazilian Counter-Strike 2 teams are signaling a major global resurgence with two different squads slated to compete in separate international finals on Sunday.
Team Legacy secured its spot in the CS Asia Championships final this past Saturday after overcoming HEROIC in a decisive 2-1 series. The victory highlights a potential return to prominence for Brazilian esports.
The Brazilian squad demonstrated resilience, recovering from an initial 13-2 defeat on Dust2. They then took Ancient 13-6 and Inferno 13-8 to clinch the best-of-three matchup.
Legacy is set to face 3DMAX in the championship match, with the winner claiming a substantial $400,000 prize. The final is scheduled for 7:00 AM UTC on Sunday.
Adding to the nation’s esports prominence, another Brazilian team, FURIA, will also vie for an international title on the same day.
FURIA will compete against Natus Vincere in the Thunderpick World Championship 2025 final. That match is slated for 3:00 PM UTC on Sunday.
These back-to-back appearances in major international finals underscore a renewed vigor for Brazilian Counter-Strike 2.
