Wisla Krakow upset FURIA in saffee's debut; eliminate them from Pinnacle Winter Series

The Brazilians go home with only 14 rounds across the series.

Wisla Krakow have advanced to the semi-finals of Pinnacle Winter Series 1 after defeating favorites FURIA 2-0. The match saw the Poles effortlessly defeat the Brazilian squad on Nuke and Inferno, securing a top-four finish with only Apeks standing between them and the finals.

The Brazilians started cold in their debut event of 2022, being invited straight into the quarter-finals and failing to get going on both maps. Wisla Krakow's victory concludes a day full of upsets at Pinnacle Winter Series, with both Apeks and K23 also winning their respective matches against fnatic and HEROIC.

Goofy ended the series with a 1.43 rating

Rafael "⁠saffee⁠" Costa had a debut to forget. The Brazilian AWPer ended his first match sporting a FURIA jersey with a disappointing 0.64 rating across the two maps, severely trailing behind his counterpart on Wisla Krakow, Michał "⁠snatchie⁠" Rudzki, who notched a 1.34 rating.

Nuke saw FURIA struggle to find their rhythm on the defense, only stringing together a total of five rounds before switching sides at 5-10. Krzysztof "⁠Goofy⁠" Górski found his element on the offense, enabling his team to maintain their advantage in the first half. It did not take long for the Poles to close out the game, only conceding one more round before securing the first map of the series 16-6.

Inferno was even better for Grzegorz "⁠SZPERO⁠" Dziamałek's squad, locking down both bombsites from FURIA for 12 straight rounds before the Brazilians were able to respond. A halftime disadvantage of 1-14 was too much to overcome for FURIA, and despite a short resurgence from the Brazilians on the defense, Wisla Krakow eventually closed out the map 16-8 and the series 2-0.

well tbf it was not exactly clear if he was kicked or not, but in guerri's words it felt like he was kicked to make room to an dedicated awper (saffe). Also Vini said in twitter he made everything he could to mantain his place in the team. I think he actually had some market value that's why they kept drop instead of him.

if by he you mean vini then i doubt furia got any money from that move. after all he is now linked to fallens team, which is just a team of free agents. doubt they've paid any buyout for vini. i think furia just terminated his contract straight away and let him go for free

To be fair, Furia style might be the hardest one to implement to new players. But obviously this cannot continue too many weeks.

That's one heck of a debut. The main AWPer bottom-fragged on Nuke and Inferno of all maps. Couldn't make to double-digit on either maps. Well-done FURIA.

On CT side, you can certainly get a few kills on either bomb sites by just looking down mid or peak banana. Maybe, not top-frag with AWP but should be at least middle of the pack.

In fairness they started inferno on T side and completely blew it. Sort of hard to present a solid CT showing when you only have 2 rounds and don't want to take as many risks.

Why are you making baseless assumptions (unless you're saying Wisla started CT???)? They started T and lost it 14-1. You can literally look at a match page to see what sides were played.

ablej was not performing in the end drop is good but vini is amazing and no way he is going back from the opportunity to play with fln and fer, hen1 was the missing piece and saffee was there to replace, the move to getting rid of vini was the wrong one IMO but it is the start of the season, nothing to care that much, even navi is losing uglily

I'm willing to give Saffee the benefit of the doubt, but I have said that I didn't think he was going to be a huge improvement for Furia. Still, one game doesn't prove anything, so time will tell if he can prove me wrong.

They didn't let saffee awp too much in this game and they want to play fast pace with him rifling. Not really a good idea since his impact comes mostly from awp... He is decent with AK, but he is way worse than hen1 with it.
