The PGL Masters Bucharest 2026 grand final is here. Nemiga vs FURIA at 12:00 on October 31, best-of-five. A third-place decider precedes it.
Nemiga — the Cinderella
- Groups: survived the lower bracket (upset Legacy, 2-0 DENDELE)
- QF: eliminated FUT (the 3-0 group team)
- SF: 2-0 Vitality (Cache 13-8, Dust2 13-11, robo led)
- VRS: now in the global top-10
FURIA — the double-finalist
- Thunderpick WC 2026 champions (Oct 18 Malta, 3-2 BETBOOM, KSCERATO MVP + 7 POTM awards, +0.35 rating gap over teammates — ended an ~11-month trophy drought)
- Bucharest QF: 2-1 BETBOOM (TWC rematch)
- Bucharest SF: 2-1 MOUZ
- Roster: molodoy, yuurih, FalleN, KSCERATO, YEKINDAR
What's at stake
- Nemiga: first-ever major tier-1 trophy; top-10 VRS consolidation; impact on Major invite math (they entered as the lowest-ranked playoff team)
- FURIA: back-to-back event titles with KSCERATO on form — second TWC-into-PGL-win double
- Head-to-head: no recent HLTV-published direct meeting
Format
- Best-of-five grand final
- Third-place match earlier the same day
