Current Team and Players Form
MOUZ
‘torszi’ keeps being their most consistent player throughout this year, which is a very long distance for a player to be at a top level, and it is a perfect sign to have a sniper like that in your team. They lost to only one team on their way, and it was Spirit, but all the MOUZ players had about the same score, which is a good sign of them being in great shape, even though they lost the match. They’re the second-best team in the world and one of the contenders for the title at this tournament.
FURIA
They had a long way to go to make it here to the playoff stage, and they did it. They’ve played against one top-10 team on their way, and it was Falcons, and they won with a score of 2-1. They’re currently in the top 3 teams by the average players’ rating of 1.10, according to HLTV.org IEM Cologne 2025 stats. ‘KSCERATO’ and ‘molodoy’ were at the top of the scoreboard and key player in their match against Falcons, and since ‘molodoy’ is their most recent addition, it is a good sign that he can play at this level at a big tournament. They’re in good shape but have yet to meet the real top teams.
