The penultimate day of the tournament has come to an end. Today featured very intense semifinals, which seem to have determined worthy contenders for the trophy. NaVi and Aurora advanced to the Grand Final, while Astralis and FUT were eliminated from the tournament but will still play a match for third place.
NaVi had a very tense match against FUT today. They were close to losing this semifinal and could have once again faced a wave of criticism from fans, but the team still managed to defeat the Turkish club 2–1 and advance to their first S-tier final since 2024.
Astralis faced Aurora in the other semifinal, and it was no less spectacular. The first map ended in favor of Astralis, and many had already started to believe that the Danish club would finally reach the final. However, that did not happen — Aurora took the next two maps and won the series 2–1.
All results:
NaVi 2:1 FUT Esports
Aurora 2:1 Astralis
As a reminder, Natus Vincere will play at a Tier-2 tournament in Denmark
