MIBR eliminate Virtus.pro from FPG in last place

electroNic's side failed to tally a map win in their debut event with Perfecto.

Virtus.pro are out of FISSURE Playground 1 after suffering a loss to MIBR in the Group C losers' match, bringing their first event with Ilya "⁠Perfecto⁠" Zalutskiy to an early end.

The Brazilians recovered from a 3-9 deficit on Train by giving up just one round in the second half, and stormed to victory on Mirage to give themselves a shot at making the playoffs in the decider match against the loser of Astralis vs. TYLOO.

VP and Perfecto fall flat on debut

Virtus.pro's campaign in Belgrade ends with a whimper after they failed to tally a single map win, losing in disastrous fashion to a hamstrung TYLOO in their opener.

The Chinese team had to field their coach WeiJie "⁠zhokiNg⁠" Zhong in place of Dongkai "⁠Jee⁠" Ji due to visa issues but still proved too much for Denis "⁠electroNic⁠" Sharipov's side to overcome, while MIBR tallied their first series win with Nicollas "⁠nicks⁠" Polonio to cast Virtus.pro out.

Perfecto ended the event averaging a 0.87 rating over four maps, a far cry from the type of consistency he regularly showed when he was named as 2022's Anchor of the Year, and electroNic's individual struggles since taking up leadership duties also continued as he ended the event on a 0.79 rating.

saffee stars on Train with 2.53 CT rating

MIBR's recovery on Train was led by Rafael "⁠saffee⁠" Costa, who swung the momentum his team's way on the CT side by following up an anti-eco ace with an AWP quad kill to leave Virtus.pro destitute.

His dominance carried through the rest of that CT side effort as he posted a 2.53 rating, 4-1 record in opening duels, and 156.7 ADR to turn the game on its head, and saffee continued to be a thorn in Virtus.pro's side on Mirage, going 4-0 in openers and posting a 1.58 rating.

MIBR were up 5-1 on the map before Virtus.pro responded and evened the score at the break, but were overwhelmed by saffee's aggression in the second pistol round and excellence from Breno "⁠brnz4n⁠" Poletto on the offense as the Brazilians stormed to victory.

yes in 2021-2022 he had an elite year in his career. But 2023 onwards there are players in anchoring roles like his in Leo, Keyd Stars, Novaq, a team called 'anything else', and similar teams that are better than Perfecto. He's really well below average. Like ax1le, he has not stayed in shape mentally or physically and his game has decayed fast, while talent around him has improved drastically

I expected nothing less than downfall when they removed the foundation of the team. Jame abusing oppositions impatience / timings might get a bit old, and not super entertaining. But it was very clear that the team was always on the same page, and had very good results when thinking of the history of the players, essentially doing it entirely without a star player. I will never understand why they gambled this away.

Did you guys forget all of 2024? Jame was playing like total shit and his calls weren't working. He was an OBJECTIVELY bad player weighing down the team. electronic is a shitter too, but people are being way too nostalgic over the 2022 Jame days. I agree they should've rebuilt entirely instead of trying to rehash a system without the dude that created it

Hadn´t Electronic joined at that time? He will naturally have upset the hierachy. Not his fault being a star player with a solid tactical understanding he likes to express. The team just needed that.

I did not. I remembered that comment of his being the headline and thinking that he was unnecessarily putting himself into the spotlight (I know that it is HLTV editors cherry picking quotes). I don't think that he has failed - the guy has only played like two official matches so far (?!) - but he did set a certain vibe and it has not been working so far.
