To put things into context, at the start of the Valencia competition, everything was a party, as half of the participants carried the green and yellow flags. But at the end of the group stage, the catastrophe that even the less optimistic had been thinking about came true: Brazil filled the last places in the tournament and were completely eliminated from the playoffs.
FURIA and Hummer took last place in Groups A and B, respectively, while 00Nation and MIBR took second-to-last place in groups in that order. For the Tribo trio, it was the worst Brazilian show in the history of the Counter-Strike franchise. “Brazilian storm” reverse.
†A championship that will soon be forgotten. The biggest one I remember, the one I’ve ever seen, is F.Apoka said
†Everything has a limit and it was the biggest embarrassment in Brazilian CS history of all versions!“, nailed mch.”I’m really mad at all of this. very sad. It’s not one team, it’s four teams. We played a Tier 2, 3 championship and had four Brazilian teams in the last four places. This is the lowest point in CS BR.‘, the streamer followed with criticism.
The Gauls were not excluded and agreed with the Companions:I don’t remember any role (sic) in any version of the fact that we have too many teams playing a league and all those teams can’t perform, they just play each other. I think it was the hardest thing that ever happened.†

The “chief” also pointed out a mitigating fact that made the situation worse for the Brazilian CS:GO.
†The hardest thing not to pass up is that our best team is part of it. When there is a championship like this and our top ranked team is not in it, we keep our cool because we always have FURIA representing us with good quality. Now that FURIA is part of it, a yellow light is on. I don’t think it’s a red light but it’s time to rethink some things‘ The Gauls quarreled.
According to the Gauls, Brazil lacks concentration to work on their team. Teams lack the originality or even the courage to try new things, rather than clinging to everything that already exists and that all competitors already know.
†Brazilian CS has always been known for innovating around the world, but we can’t bring that right now. We are much more reactive, we try to be like the others and we no longer want to be a reference. If you no longer want to be a reference but want to hunt, it will take longer to arrive. There’s a lack of personality to look at the situation and say, ‘You know what, we’re going to get there. We are making a plan and we are going to go there”. I think FURIA itself always has such a way, of being a reference, of bringing new things, so maybe a little something here and something there can come back.†
During the chat, Michel brushed off the premise that had developed in community discussions that players don’t care about winning. For him, the problem is far from being a lack of effort or will. At the same time, it’s hard to hit the hammer and justify the big problem plaguing Brazilians right now.
†I don’t think anyone is joking or playing dirty. What pisses me off the most is the crowd struggling“, He claimed.”So really giving your best and giving 100% is another thing. They are different things. But I’m sure everyone really tried. No excuses to give, I can’t see this world and I wish I had an excuse but I don’tadded.

Finally, making some assessments and comparisons on football, Gaules said that one of the most overlooked points in the national scenario is good planning in terms of organisations.
“It all comes back to the Guardiola problem we were talking about. Isn’t it time to bring in someone from the outside who can give us a vision? And it shouldn’t just be a coach, an analyst. in general… He tries to change things and even tries to change the theater of NA in Denmark,” he explained.
†We still have the romance of believing and placing all of our hopes and expectations in players’ desire to become champions. It makes sense even for us… But I still think there will be a change of heart and it will be great, and that will be when we are here for the dream and the desire of the organization to be champions. If the organization’s aspiration to be champion is equal or greater than that of the players, then I think we’ve had a breakthrough. And I’m not talking about the will of the team owner, I’m talking about the organization. Understand that it’s not just the player who wins the championship. Who wins the project… It’s the future.†
Indeed, since the end of the SK Gaming era, Brazil has stagnated on the international scene. The closest to great performance is FURIA, which regularly makes major playoffs and even wins major tournaments in North America and is in the top 3 of the HLTV World Rankings. Nevertheless, the team always lived its “almost” destiny and never managed to go further as champions of world-class competitions.
In figures, Brazil has never been so represented on the international scene. It is not uncommon to see major championships where two, three, four or more Brazilian teams compete. But when it comes to results, we still have a lot to be desired.
