FURIA ease past Grayhound in EPL Group A lower bracket

The Australian side has one life left at the event in Malta after suffering 0-2 losses to GamerLegion and FURIA.

KSCERATO once again put on a show with a 1.58 rating in the 2-0 victory

FURIA will continue their lower bracket run after defeating Grayhound in the first round. The Brazilians find themselves in the LB gauntlet after they lost their opener against Movistar Riders, 0-2, despite an impressive performance by star player Kaike "⁠KSCERATO⁠" Cerato.

The 23-year-old star was again his team’s top performer with a 1.58 rating against Grayhound. He and Marcelo "⁠chelo⁠" Cespedes led the way in a 16-6 mauling of the Oceanian side on Ancient, whereas he was part of the fragging pack on Vertigo alongside Andrei "⁠arT⁠" Piovezan and Yuri "⁠yuurih⁠" Santos.

An early exchange on Ancient, when Grayhound won the second-round forcebuy as CTs, set up an exciting beginning to the series, but any notion of a tight map was quickly dispelled as FURIA went from tying it up 3-3 to winning the half 12-3.

Grayhound once again won a second-round forcebuy, this time after the switch, but their ensuing three-round streak was just cosmetic. The Brazilians put their foot down and closed it out 16-6 before heading to their own map pick.

FURIA didn’t let up on Vertigo and got off to a BRA7-1L start. From there on out the South Americans only had to keep Grayhound at bay and ride out their early lead.

The score was 10-5 at the half and a second-round pistol round win courtesy of an ace by yuurih gave Nicholas "⁠guerri⁠" Nogueira’s men plenty of security.

FURIA never let the economy get out of control in a tight 3-3 start on the defense, saving when necessary, and finally linked three in a row to close out the map, 16-8. They will now go on to face the loser of Ninjas in Pyjamas vs. Vitality in the second round of the lower bracket.

Grayhound are yet to win a map after two matches in this season of Pro League. Their first loss came in the opener against GamerLegion before falling to FURIA, but they still have one more chance on Saturday at 12:30 when they face the loser of Astralis vs. ORKS in the triple-elimination bracket.
