MIBR round out IEM Rio team list

Felipe "⁠insani⁠" Yuji dragged his team across the finish line on Ancient to claim the series.

MIBR claimed the last qualifying spot at IEM Rio 2023 after defeating Complexity in the last match of the North American closed qualifier. The Brazilians had already defeated Johnny "⁠JT⁠" Theodosiou and company in the upper bracket final, but doubled up on their opponents to secure their ticket to Rio de Janeiro.

insani was MIBR's most important player through the online qualifier as the 18-year-old prospect averaged a 1.28 rating across seven maps to power his team to victory. The young rifler recently put his name on the map after a great performance at IEM Katowice, and will now get the chance to ply his trade in front of his home crowd in April.

Insani registered a 1.28 rating in the final match against Complexity

MIBR only conceded one map across the whole qualifier, sweeping both paiN and Complexity to claim a spot in the final. The Brazilians then overturned a 5-10 deficit on the CT side of Ancient to defeat the North Americans for the second time in two days.

Ppl crying over astralis and liquid not being There ... Pro tip: if they wanted to attend, they would've, but they're propably preparing for The major or taking A break :) Posting stupid things won't help, just accept the fact that they're not your toys, in fact they don't even know u exist and they could buy your entire family, so next time reconsider before crying about it being boring without liquid or g2 (Also just remembered astralis lost 14-16 to LDLC lately they don't even deserve to be there tbh)

I like Col, but that's hard cope. They blew it twice. If they are only "LAN" then that still places them lower than top 15

I fucking knew this was going to happen. Brazilian teams finish 1st and 3rd in the NA qualifier, eliminating both NA teams 2nd and 4th. It was deserved, they played better, but this needs to stop. Nobody can make LANs, prove themselves, and get experience from our region.
