VenatoreS qualify for V4 Future Sports Festival

VenatoreS have booked their spot at the V4 Future Sports Festival after beating Kinguin 2-1 in the grand final of the Polish qualifier.

VenatoreS and Kinguin met in the final stage of the 12-team qualifier after beating AGO and PRIDE, respectively, in the previous phase of the bracket.

The series kicked off on Kinguin's map pick, Mirage, but it was VenatoreS who started off on the right foot. Still, the Polish-Portuguese side came back from a 5-13 deficit to take the game to overtime and eventually close out the map, 22-19.

Goofy was a key figure for VenatoreS during their qualification run

VenatoreS' map pick, Cache, followed the same pattern as Mirage as VenatoreS started it off with a 10-5 half-time lead as CTs. This time around, however, Michał "⁠MICHU⁠" Müller and co. could not stop their opponents from finishing things off with a 16-10 win.

The decider map was Train, and Kinguin found themselves some breathing room in the series by securing an opening 7-3 lead on the CT-side. Nevertheless, with 17-year-old Krzysztof "⁠Goofy⁠" Górski leading the charge, VenatoreS responded with a flawless 13-round streak to wrap things up and secure their place at the V4 Future Sports Festival.
