In the final stage, the European team looked transformed. They met MOUZ again, their group stage tormentor, and got their revenge with a clean 2-0 victory. In the semifinals, the challenge was against the Brazilian team FURIA. G2 kept up the strong pace and, without dropping a map, won again 2-0. The spot in the BLAST London 2025 grand final was secured, cementing an impressive comeback campaign. G2’s journey proved the team’s ability to adapt and grow throughout the competition.
