What to rememberNatus Vincere took the series 3–1, and game 3 was a total crush: 44 kills and a 35,124 gold lead. Gotthejuice played like the whole map was his farm.
Game 1 was the longest of the series: 43:16.
Natus Vincere won it with 23 kills against 18. At minute 43 their gold lead was 17,473.
Niku, the mid player, played
Nature's Prophet and had a 9/2/9 score.
What happened in game 2 and game 3?
GamerLegion won game 2 in 23:53 with 19 kills against 8.
Yuma played
Io and finished 9/0/5, so he never died. That was the only game GamerLegion took.
Game 3 was the craziest moment of the series.
Natus Vincere got 44 kills against 15 and led by 35,124 gold at minute 37. Gotthejuice, the carry, played
Kez and had a 16/1/12 score. The game ended in 37:33.
Why does this win matter?
Natus Vincere ended game 4 in only 28:12. They had 26 kills against 5 and led by 26,654 gold. Gotthejuice played
Nature's Prophet and went 11/1/9. He finished the series with 33 kills, the most of all players.
His teammate
pma had 23 kills, the same number as
Yuma of
GamerLegion.
Natus Vincere already have big results this year. They finished 2nd at PGL Wallachia Season 9 in 2026-09 and 2nd at BLAST SLAM VI in 2026-02. Gotthejuice,
Niku,
pma and Riddys also won EPL Masters I and EPL Masters II in 2026, so this team knows how to win at this event.
For
GamerLegion, this is a hard stop after a good run. They finished 7th–8th at BLAST SLAM VIII in 2026-10 and 5th–6th at PGL Wallachia Season 9 in 2026-09.
Yuma was their best player and had 23 kills in the series. Now we wait to see how far
Natus Vincere go at EPL Masters 2026.
