Hard work and dedication always pays off boys, you just need to be ambitious enough to seize the moment!

Falcons are either losing to G2 or winning the whole thing

It's that time of year where growing a moustache is normally what you do to raise awareness, but this year I'm turning to the keyboard instead.

This summer, I was diagnosed with testicular cancer.

Thankfully, I'm cancer-free today, but the experience has put a lot of things into perspective.

A reminder to all men: listen to your body. Pay attention to changes, be curious, and don't hesitate to see a doctor. Better one visit too many than one too few.

Especially when you have a wife and kids who depend on you, you realize just how precious time is.

Your health isn't only about you. It's also about the people who love you and count on you.

Don't ignore the signs. Don't put it off. Get checked.

I'm now in a follow-up programme with check-ups twice a year❤️

@FreyaSpiers @TheCSTimes @ESLCS Can’t believe you got it in as THE LAST THING on the broadcast

[Janko Paunovic @YNk]

Complete domination from MOUZ, while others stumbled they took care of business and finally got the IEM trophy on their 6th attempt!

xertioN gets his first MVP, last time a rifle IGL won it was also at IEM Beijing in 2019 with gla1ve (I felt it)

Dia 8.712.

Hoje termina o último IEM da minha carreira.

Nossa caminhada no IEM Beijing 2026 chegou ao fim nas quartas de final, não era assim que eu queria me despedir desse campeonato, ainda mais sabendo o significado que estar aqui tem pra mim, mas faz parte dessa reta final que estou vivendo e talvez seja justamente isso que faça cada momento pesar um pouco mais agora.

A China sempre teve um lugar muito especial na minha história, foi aqui que disputei meu primeiro campeonato internacional no Counter-Strike, vivi momentos que mudaram minha carreira e, tantos anos depois, poder voltar para cá nessa reta final fecha um ciclo de uma maneira difícil até de explicar.

Mas o que mais vou levar dessa vez são vocês.

Obrigado de coração a todos os fãs que estiveram com a gente esses dias, por cada pessoa que esperou para tirar uma foto, por cada presente, cada carta, cada mensagem e por todo o carinho que recebi aqui, às vezes é difícil conseguir responder ou demonstrar na mesma intensidade tudo que vocês entregam pra gente, mas saibam que eu vejo, eu sinto e guardo muita coisa comigo.

Sempre gostei muito da China, mas depois de tudo que vivi aqui ao longo desses anos esse país virou muito mais do que apenas um lugar onde venho disputar campeonatos, ele faz parte da minha história e vai continuar tendo um espaço muito especial no meu coração.

Ainda não acabou, o próximo capítulo é a BLAST Rivals 2026, e enquanto ainda tiver jogo pela frente, eu vou continuar vivendo cada um deles com tudo que tenho.

Mas hoje foi mais uma daquelas despedidas que fazem a ficha cair um pouco mais.

[ESL Counter-Strike @ESLCS]

Farewell,

It's been so special watching you over the years, playing, becoming a champion, teaching us all and inspiring a generation of Counter-Strike players. There is likely no single human being that has got more people playing Counter-Strike than you.

On behalf of everyone here at @ESL,

Obrigado, lenda. @FalleNCS

And I'm sure we'll see you soon enough.

[Talking Counter @TalkingCounter]

We have added PT-BR subtitles, if that's your thing

What's wrong with Falcons?

@MosesGG: "They have a lot of inconsistencies just because they have a lot of issues scattered across the board on this team."

Playing multiple scrims on match day sounded wild but it did wonders for FURIA

Yekindar speaks to YNk, moses and SPUNJ about finding time to practice during a booked tournament schedule.

Do you think the tournament season is too packed? 💬

[Janko Paunovic @YNk]

NaVi took the belt out on those last 2 maps, damn

w0nderful and b1t were unbelievable today!

[Harry @NER0cs]

When two players have ratings above 1.75, your team wins 99.93% of maps

At MVP events a team has only lost twice:

🇪🇺 NAVI vs HEROIC, IEM Rio 2024
🇪🇺 NAVI vs Falcons, IEM Beijing 2026

Unfortunate

[Janko Paunovic @YNk]

@FreyaSpiers Hell no

[Janko Paunovic @YNk]

I trust gas station sushi more than I trust r1nkle on the AWP

[Talking Counter @TalkingCounter]

G2 has some issues... but is r1nkle the one to blame?

[Janko Paunovic @YNk]

@Thorin Don’t forget their CEO said they could’ve kept NiKo “if they wanted”

Still can’t believe he actually bragged about it
