Fnatic’s Counter-Strike lineup has completed an incredible comeback story, earning the final berth at the CS2 Budapest Major after enduring what fans are calling the toughest qualification run in the org’s history.
Their campaign, marked by relentless travel, nerve-wracking matches, and the narrowest of margins, represents the storied history of one of esports’ most successful names. As the Oct. 6 invite deadline approached, tension was at an all-time high. Dozens of teams were still clawing for every last Valve Regional Standings (VRS) point to secure their ticket to the $1.25 million StarLadder Budapest Major, which begins on Nov. 24 at the MVM Dome.
