FISSURE PLAYGROUND 2: format, schedule, results, and tournament bracket

The first day of the tournament has come to an end, and we can summarize the initial results.

All the favorites secured victories in their opening matches. Only four teams - Aurora Gaming, Team Liquid, BetBoom Team, and Team Spirit managed to close their series with a 2:0 score, while the rest needed all three maps to determine the winner.

A pleasant surprise of the day was the matchup between MOUZ and Team Falcons, the reigning The International 2025 champions. Despite losing 1:2, MOUZ demonstrated a strong performance and surprised their opponents with an unexpected Huskar pick in the carry role on the second map.

By the end of the day, the following teams earned one point in the standings: PARIVISION, Tundra, Heroic, BetBoom Team, Aurora Gaming, Team Liquid, Falcons and Team Spirit.

It’s worth noting that most matches lasted over 40 minutes.

The second day of the tournament turned out to be more exciting and we’re summing up the results.

Just like yesterday, half of the matches ended with a 2:0 score. Team Spirit defeated Heroic, Vici Gaming confidently beat Virtus.pro, Team Yandex proved stronger than Yakult Brothers, and Team Falcons overcame Team Liquid.

The main surprise of the day was Team Cobra’s victory over MOUZ with a 2:1 score. Until recently, the team played under the Perrito Panzon tag, but after successfully qualifying for the tournament, the South American roster changed its name.

Another unexpected result came from the Aurora Gaming vs. PARIVISION match, where Aurora pulled off a win despite PARIVISION being considered the favorite.

Tomorrow will mark the start of the first elimination matches between teams that have suffered two consecutive losses.

The third day of the tournament has come to an end, and now the true form of the teams is becoming clear.

Team Falcons and Team Spirit claimed victories in their series, securing the first and second spots in the standings and guaranteeing themselves a place in the playoff stage of the championship.

Team Yandex showed solid performance, confidently defeating Heroic 2:0 and significantly increasing their chances of advancing to the playoffs. Team Liquid overcame Vici Gaming, Tundra Esports defeated Nigma Galaxy, and PARIVISION easily handled Team Cobra.

Additionally, the first teams to leave the tournament were determined - Virtus.pro and Yakutou Brothers lost their elimination matches and finished at the bottom of the table.

Tomorrow, two more elimination series and two matches for playoff qualification will take place, which will decide the next participants of the upcoming round.

The penultimate day of group stage has come to an end and we can now summarize the results.

Tundra Esports defeated Team Liquid and secured a spot in the playoffs, while Liquid move to the fifth and final round of the group stage. BetBoom Team achieved the same result after beating PARIVISION, also advancing to the top 8. In the final match of the day, Team Yandex showed a solid performance, defeating Aurora Gaming 2:1 and earning a place in the next stage.

In the elimination matches, Heroic confidently defeated Runa Team, while MOUZ continued their streak by knocking out Nigma Galaxy. Additionally, Team Cobra couldn’t resist Vici Gaming and left the tournament.

Tomorrow will feature the last matches of the group stage, which will determine all eight playoff participants.

The final day of the group stage has come to an end, and it’s time to sum up the results.

Three series were played in the last round of the group stage. As a result, PARIVISION lost to Team Liquid, Aurora Gaming fell short against MOUZ, and Vici Gaming were defeated by Heroic. The losing teams left the tournament, finishing in 9th–11th place and earning $15,000 each from the prize pool. The winners advanced to the playoffs, where their opponents are already waiting.

The first day of the playoffs has come to an end, featuring four matches in the upper bracket.

Team Yandex unexpectedly defeated Tundra Esports, though the series was intense — the winner was decided only after the third map. In the next match, Team Falcons fell to MOUZ, as the European roster confidently closed the series 2–0, marking one of the day’s biggest surprises.

The remaining two series went more predictably: Team Spirit sent Heroic to the lower bracket, while BetBoom Team proved stronger than Team Liquid.

The second day of the Playoff stage has come to an end, featuring only two matches in the upper bracket.

The first match was between Team Yandex and MOUZ. The result surprised many - Yandex sensationally defeated the “mice” 2:1 and advanced to the upper bracket semifinals. It’s worth noting that the team’s winning streak on the professional scene has already reached 16 matches, with only one loss.. Despite their solid form, MOUZ will now have to fight in the lower bracket.

The second match of the day featured Team Spirit and BetBoom Team. It took all three maps to determine the winner, but BetBoom came out on top, winning 2:1.

Notably, the second map ended in just 20 minutes, with BetBoom managing only two kills against 20 from the “dragons.” On the third map, Spirit decided to experiment by picking Dragon Knight as a carry - a hero that had not appeared in their drafts before. The experiment turned out unsuccessful, and the team failed to secure the victory.

Tomorrow will be a break day, and the day after, three elimination matches will take place, after which three teams will leave the tournament.

After a one-day break, three teams were eliminated from the tournament. Every match of the day was intense and ended with a 2:1 score.

The day began with a series between Tundra Esports and Team Falcons. Despite strong resistance, the Falcons proved stronger and sent Tundra home. Next, Team Liquid defeated Heroic, ending their three-match winning streak in head-to-head encounters.

The final series of the day featured Team Spirit against Team Falcons. In a hard-fought battle, the Falcons once again defeated the Dragons, knocking them out of a major tournament for the second time in a row - a similar scenario occurred at The International 2025, where the teams fought for a playoff spot.

Tomorrow, the first finalist of the championship will be determined, and two more teams will leave the tournament.

The tournament is nearing its end, and by the end of the day, two more teams have finished their run.

In the first lower bracket match, MOUZ faced Team Liquid for a spot in the semifinals. The series ended 2:1 in favor of Liquid - the team advanced further, while MOUZ finished in 5th place and earned $65,000 in prize money.

After that victory, Team Liquid went up against Team Falcons and, riding their momentum, won the first map. However, the Falcons pulled themselves together and claimed two confident wins in a row, eliminating Liquid from the tournament and securing at least a top-3 finish.

Tomorrow, the lower bracket final will take place, followed immediately by the grand final in BO5 format, where the FISSURE PLAYGROUND 2 champion will be determined.
