HEROIC-FaZe grudge match headlines Austin Major Stage 2 opening round

7-6-2025 01:30

yxngstxr will get his chance to "talk shit back" to s1mple in the first match of Stage 2.

The opening round of matchups for Stage 2 of the BLAST.tv Austin Major have been set following the conclusion of Stage 1, which saw Lynn Vision, Legacy, and TYLOO lock in the final three spots after advancing from the 2-2 pool.

Best-of-ones return for the opening round of Stage 2, which is headlined by a tantalizing grudge matchup between HEROIC and FaZe.

The former knocked the latter out of IEM Dallas, where FaZe were using Felipe "⁠skullz⁠" Medeiros as a stand-in for Håvard "⁠rain⁠" Nygaard, and a clip from a FaZe documentary soon followed where Oleksandr "⁠s1mple⁠" Kostyliev said, "We lost against fucking bots."

In an interview with Dust2.us, Simon "⁠yxngstxr⁠" Boije explained that this may have a continuation of some "funny drama" between Finn "⁠karrigan⁠" Andersen and Yasin "⁠xfl0ud⁠" Koç, and added that he was hoping for a rematch in Stage 2. "Since [s1mple] said we are bots, I need to talk shit back."

He'll get his wish to kick off Stage 2, while other notable games see Falcons taking on B8 and 3DMAX up against BetBoom.

All the opening matchups for Stage 2 can be found below:

Teams apply the player profile photos. Falcons do that asap, while faze has always been slow with updating the photos. Elige has had a complexity photo for like 3 months being in faze
