The Legends Stage of the CS:GO IEM Rio Major has almost concluded. Only six teams remain, of which only three will make it to the playoffs. With Brazilian heroes Furia qualifying on day two, day three saw NAVI fight for survival, Heroic show their mettle, Vitality crash out, and more. Sprout, who played spoilsport for former Major winners FaZe, was unceremoniously eliminated by Team Spirit. Meanwhile, Outsiders displayed a dominant performance to outshine BIG in their matchup.
With only one more day of Legends Stage matches to go, Team Liquid, MOUZ, ENCE, NAVI, BIG, and Team Spirit have everything to fight for. Here’s the updated schedule for day four.
