B8 Are in Excellent Shape
B8 cruised through the Logitech G Play Connect 2026 group stage. They won all five fixtures in Group A, beating Metizport (13-8), GamerLegion (13-6), Ninjas in Pyjams (13-9), Luminosity (13-11), and M80 (13-9).
With those results, B8 are 13-2 from their last 15 games, stretching back to the start of September. Evidently, B8 are in excellent shape, and even though they’ve not had to face many strong teams over the last three weeks, B8 have proven that they can succeed at this level of play, making a Logitech G Play Connect 2026 title run a real possibility.
Their success so far in this event, however, comes with an asterisk, as B8 have played some close matches. That includes the 13-11 win over Luminosity.

Luminosity Aren’t to Be Ignored
Luminosity qualified for Logitech G Play Connect playoffs as no.2 seeded team from Group A, where they managed a 3-2 record. That included defeats against GamerLegion (7-13) and B8 (11-13) and wins against Metizport (13-9), M80 (13-4), and Ninjas in Pyjamas (13-11).
The 3-2 record, however, isn’t as worrying, as Luminosity have shown strong form ahead of the event, with a runner-up finish at Roman Imperium Cup VIII, where they defeated LargadosyPelados, SAW, and M80.
With a 7-3 record over the last 10 games, Luminosity are in a fine spot, and their 2-0 sweep of BBL Esports in the quarterfinals, with 13-9 on Nuke and 13-5 on Mirage, should inspire some confidence.
While somewhat inconsistent, Luminosity enter the Logitech G Play Connect semifinals in strong shape, especially afro and yxngstxr, who are the tournament’s second (1.33) and sixth (1.20) highest-rated players.

|---|---|---|---|
| September 19 | Logitech G Play Connect 2026 | BBL Esports | 2-0 (W) |
| September 17 | Logitech G Play Connect 2026 | Ninjas in Pyjamas | 13-11 (W) |

Verdict
B8 defeated Luminosity during the group stage, but it was a very close game, which could’ve easily ended the other way. So it is hard to view B8 as the clear favourites for the rematch.
Luminosity have since the defeat, looked solid, especially their two star players in afro and yxngstxr. If Luminosity can show more of that they did against BBL Esports in the quarterfinals, it is not unlikely for them to get their revenge on Tuesday.
