IEM Winter 2021 North America Closed Qualifier

GODSENT qualify for IEM Winter over FURIA

5-10-2021 06:11

The Brazilian derby went the way of Epitacio "⁠TACO⁠" de Melo and company this time around.

GODSENT have won the North American closed qualifier for IEM Winter, defeating FURIA in the final 2-1 to secure themselves a spot at the 16-team IEM Winter set to take place in December.

The closed qualifier featured four teams, with the two finalists receiving direct invites while Extra Salt and paiN gained spots through an open qualifier. After initially suffering a defeat to FURIA in the upper bracket final, GODSENT got a chance to enact revenge by topping the lower bracket final over paiN to meet Andrei "⁠arT⁠" Piovezan's men again.

IEM Winter could be latto's first international LAN

Vertigo started off disastrously for the GODSENT side as they got battered, falling in a 1-16 defeat to FURIA. Yuri "⁠yuurih⁠" Santos was the highest fragger from the FURIA side, while GODSENT star João "⁠felps⁠" Vasconcellos had his tied second-worst map performance ever with a 0.23 rating.

GODSENT answered back on Inferno, posting a strong CT side and securing map two 16-12. Overpass saw a resurgence from felps, who put up an impressive 1.62 rating to help push his team over the line against their compatriots in FURIA. A 9-6 Terrorist side half gave GODSENT some wiggle room, which allowed them to comfortably take the decider map 16-11.

Notably, FURIA's new recruit André "⁠drop⁠" Abreu faced troubles during the series, being unable to procure a positive rating even in the 16-1 victory on Vertigo. Failing to qualify for an event such as IEM Winter puts FURIA in a tough spot going into the end of the year as they have just two events left to attend — IEM Fall, and the PGL Stockholm Major, should they qualify.

2021-10-05 17:24

Lol

Godsent is rising!!!

2021-10-05 06:22

drop was a great addition! should've just let guerri play lol

2021-10-05 06:23

+1000

2021-10-05 06:26

Drop can play like a good boy and fill up for Furia until they find a replacement and kick his ass., or he can become a men and go play some CS for real and try having some impact in the server. At least my way he has a chance to join the team permanently.

2021-10-05 06:32

drop should be given time like lucky needed team stop hating on every new team member when they trying to find their foot steps.

2021-10-05 07:40

i don't think pro cs should work like school and everything should be excused being a professional in cs is a job, and if you suck at your job and can't be productive you're gonna get fired

2021-10-05 15:51

2021-10-05 14:24

When Will furia finally play 5v5 is the question? …. I feel really sad for them, they could be a top3 contender with a good 5th… It’s been 4v5 for so long that i’m Impressed with the patience from these 4 to still be motivated

Somehow top players like coldzera and saffee rejected the offer to play with them.. I honestly dont get it..

Coldzera clearly was an ego problem, he probably put himself over Kscerato and Yurih for example. Saffee is just an honorable man, if he leaves Pain right now they would have 0 chances to qualify for the major, maybe he is joining after the qualify or after the major...

2021-10-05 17:13

I get that Pain is like living the dream right now..

2021-10-05 19:11

Coldzera isn’t good enough for them, even of he’s a huge upgrade over drop. But saffee is not understandable at all ….. furia is perfect for him and he is perfect for furia, could almost make a love movie out of that one. Dodging lan maybe? :P
