Legacy eliminate Imperial from Austin in Brazilian derby
The derby's winners will play a decider match for a chance to reach Stage 2.

Legacy, who weren’t even supposed to be at the Austin Major after losing the third-place decider match to BESTIA in the South American Regional Qualifier, but were invited after a controversial ruling due to late visa acquisitions by the Argentines, knocked out Imperial in the 1-2 pool and will play an all-or-nothing series in the final day of Stage 1 for a chance at making the second stage.
"It was a shitshow of Counter-Strike from both sides," Imperial's Vinicius "VINI" Figueiredo said during his exit interview on the broadcast after the match, critical of the level displayed on the server by both teams.
The series was anything but exciting in the first two maps, as Legacy went on a 7-0 run on the T side of Inferno to establish dominance on their pick quickly. An 11-1 half all but sealed the deal, and it was closed out just two rounds after the switch.
The same dominance was seen on Dust2. Legacy won the pistol round on the CT side of Dust2, but got mowed down time and again as Imperial went on a 11-round streak to mimick the first map’s result but in the other direction.
Lucas "lux" Meneghini and company won the second pistol round and kept the map alive for another three rounds, but were quickly dispatched 13-5.
Legacy then showed a lot of promise on the Mirage decider as they got off to a quick lead despite falling 0-2 after the pistol round, turning the early deficit into a 9-3 half. Imperial won the second pistol round in a messy afterplant situation that came down to a knife kill on the CT in a smoke while he went for a 10-second defuse, but the early boost was not enough.
A 1vs2 clutch by Guilherme "saadzin" Pacheco the following round put Imperial’s comeback dreams to bed as they went out to close it out 13-4, in large part thanks to Eduardo "dumau" Wolkmer’s heroics as he ended the map with a 2.15 rating.
