Brazil’s Ceiling

LØS Are One Win From Brazil’s First Worlds Knockouts

Brazilian teams have been to every Worlds since 2014 and none has finished higher than 12th. Beat LYON tonight and LØS are in the last eight.

12th

best Brazilian finish at Worlds: paiN Gaming in 2015 and Vivo Keyd Stars in 2025

2–2

LØS’s series record at this Worlds

The Take

From 2017 to 2023 no Brazilian team did better than Team oNe’s 17th–20th, and the two that came closest still only got a share of 12th. LØS are at their first Worlds and need one more best-of-three win to go further than all of them.

“Depending on the draw, with a bit of luck, we can get there and do what nobody in Brazil has managed yet.”

Acho que, dependendo do sorteio, com um pouco de sorte, podemos chegar lá e fazer o que ninguém no Brasil conseguiu ainda.

    Before LØS’s Worlds debut against T1, Curse was asked for a message to the fans already excited about the team. Laughing, he told them not to expect anything.

    “You can’t hype it up, man. We’re not that good a team. Don’t expect anything from us.”

    Não dá para hypar, mano. Nós não somos um time tão bom assim. Não esperem nada de nós.
