In a shocking turn of events at the BLAST.tv Austin Major, Legacy pulled off the first major upset of Stage 3 by dismantling Vitality 13-3 on Inferno. Shox delves into the reasons behind Vitality’s collapse and Legacy’s unexpected dominance. Despite Vitality’s confident pistol round, the Brazilians immediately struck back and never let go of the momentum. Legacy’s aggressive and calculated plays repeatedly exposed gaps in Vitality’s defense, leading to an overwhelming 8-1 lead.
XTQZZZ’s timeouts barely slowed them down, as latto’s clutch plays fueled the fire. The second half began with another flawless pistol round from Legacy, showcasing clinical retake execution. From there, Vitality’s composure unraveled, evident in missed opportunities like a critical 2v3 post-plant. According to Shox, the result wasn’t just about aim—it was Legacy’s superior timing, confidence, and pressure-handling that turned the tides.
