2GAME Esports enter the play-ins as underdogs, expected to struggle against FURIA. This is largely because FURIA hail from the VCT, while 2GAME Esports are a Challenger team who’ve spent the entire season playing in lower-tier competition.
However, while 2GAME have no experience playing at a VCT level, FURIA’s struggles this stage suggest they won’t have an easy time against a tier-two team.
- FURIA are the worst-performing team of VCT Americas Stage 2
- 2GAME Esports look sharp
- The Challenger team can win

FURIA Are In a Very Rough Spot
FURIA ended VCT Americas Stage 2 group stage as the worst-performing team in the region. They placed last in Group Alpha, with a 0-5 record and a -8 map differential.
FURIA looked at their best in the opening week of Stage 2, when they took a map off Leviatan. Since then, they’ve performed progressively worse, seemingly unable to find any serious footing in the remaining four games.
Notably, FURIA did manage to take a map off ENVY in Week 3, but even that is hardly something to write home about.
FURIA will, in theory, have an easier game on Friday, when they take on a Challenger team. However, considering how poorly they’ve been playing this stage, even Friday’s game does not appear easy.

2GAME Esports Are Strong
2GAME Esports are a bit of an enigma, hailing from Challengers Brazil, where they’ve placed second in Stage 1 and 2, and won the Last Chance Qualifier.
Despite not winning a single split, 2GAME have been the most consistent team in Challengers Brazil, dropping just eight games this entire season. Run like that suggests that 2GAME have the tools to deal with VCT teams, especially FURIA, who are the clear worst squad of the stage.
Moreover, besides their strong form, 2GAME also field players who previously competed in VCT – all but Brinks – so the quality is there.

Verdict
FURIA might hail from a higher-tier competition, but this means very little considering their form this stage has been atrocious and not at the level of other VCT squads.
Given how poorly FURIA have been playing, without showing any signs of improvement, it is more than fair to expect them to struggle on Friday as well, especially against one of the top Challenger squads.
This is a 50/50 match at best, making 2GAME Esports a very inviting pick.
