coldzera powers Legacy to win over MIBR

MIBR exit the tournament with a 1-2 record.

Legacy have eliminated MIBR from the Americas RMR in a dominant two-map showing (Anubis 13-7, Vertigo 13-7).

Marcelo "⁠coldzera⁠" David was in imperious form in the series and averaged a 1.77 rating and 116.6 ADR as the 29-year-old rolled back the years against his former organization. Legacy will need their captain to be at his best in Monday's deciding match, where they will face off against M80 for a Major spot.

Conversely, MIBR will be disappointed with their showing at the RMR. The Brazilians came into the tournament as the third-highest ranked team, but could only muster a solitary win against a misfiring NRG, with losses to BOSS and Legacy dashing their Major dreams.

The clash began on Anubis, where MIBR got off to a slow start and found themselves 0-7 down. The favored Brazilian side then bounced back to post four rounds at the switch, with the turning point proved to be a 2vs4 conversion by Rafael "⁠saffee⁠" Costa and André "⁠drop⁠" Abreu. It wasn't to be, however, as their CT side failed to provide much resistance and meant Legacy secured a comfortable 13-7 win.

Vertigo began with drop's 1vs3 clutch, but MIBR's feel-good moment didn't last long, as coldzera turned on the style and helped his team put up nine rounds on the CT side. While the second half was a back-and-forth affair, Legacy's lead was simply too big for MIBR to trouble them as they closed out a 2-0 win and secured their spots in the 2-1 bracket.
