FURIA Fall as MVK Esports Reach Play-In Decider

MVK Esports turned a lower-bracket fight into one more shot at Karmine Corp, beating FURIA 3-1 in the League of Legends World Championship Play-In on Saturday, October 17. The reward is a rematch with the team that swept them 3-0 on Friday, October 16, with the winner of the final-round match claiming the last Swiss Stage place, according to reports from Field Level Media and GosuGamers.

There is no slow route back into the bracket here: MVK now have to solve Karmine Corp immediately, rather than wait for another opponent or series. The Vietnamese team already beat FURIA 3-0 in the opening round on Thursday, October 15, but this time the Brazilian side took a game before MVK shut the door.

MVK took the first two games in 31 and 27 minutes, putting FURIA under immediate pressure. FURIA answered with a 36-minute win in Game 3, extending the series, but MVK closed out Game 4 in 28 minutes to seal the 3-1 result.

The result sends MVK into Sunday’s decider against Karmine Corp after their earlier 3-0 defeat dropped them into the lower bracket. That first meeting left Karmine Corp one match from the Swiss Stage; MVK’s win over FURIA has now made them the final obstacle between the French organization and qualification. The stakes and the earlier sweep are also central to the Karmine Corp-MVK matchup.

Ngo “Kratos” Khanh was named the series MVP after finishing with a 13-8-25 kill-death-assist line. Teammate Nguyen “Harky” Van Huu posted 22-11-24, while FURIA’s Andrey “Ayu” Saraiva recorded 18 kills.
