The Last Clássico: 00 Nation push Imperial to the brink of elimination in Americas RMR

Imperial, the home of the godfather of Brazilian Counter-Strike, FalleN, is one loss away from being eliminated from Americas Regional Major Ranking (RMR) after losing 16-11 to 00 Nation today. The defeat in the 1-1 pool of the Swiss system means Imperial will not qualify for IEM Rio Major if they drop one more match.

The Brazilian derby, dubbed The Last Clássico, saw TACO and coldzera comfortably beat their former Luminosity Gaming and SK Gaming teammates FalleN, fer, and fnx, the latter of whom transitioned to head coach after the player break. This quintet won back-to-back CS:GO Majors in 2016, and are now fighting each other for a spot in the first Major held in Brazil.
