FURIA fe made Counter-Strike history by securing the first map win of 2025 against a male team in an official ranking tournament. In their match against Flamengo at CCT Season 3 South America Series 1, the women’s roster claimed victory on Anubis with a 13:9 scoreline, marking a new chapter for women’s CS2.
A Historic Breakthrough
The women’s roster of FURIA fe has become a trailblazer in the new era of Counter-Strike, winning a map against a male team in an official ranking tournament after the introduction of the new competitive system in 2025. This historic moment took place during the CCT Season 3 South America Series 1, where FURIA fe faced off against the Brazilian male team Flamengo.
Despite ultimately losing the series (1:2), the female squad managed to claim victory on Anubis with a score of 13:9, showcasing strong preparation, discipline, and individual skill. One of the key highlights was bizinha, who emerged as the best player on that map with 22 kills and an impressive 1.52 rating.
A New Chapter for Women’s CS
This achievement is a landmark in Counter-Strike history: FURIA fe became the first female team to win a map against a male team in a ranking tournament since Valve and tournament organizers began integrating mixed-gender matches into the global ranking system. This format, introduced in 2025, was designed to promote greater inclusivity and equal opportunities in professional CS2.
While the result didn’t bring them a series win, the map victory itself has become a symbol of progress for the women’s scene. FURIA fe proved they can compete on equal footing with experienced male teams — a sign that the gap between men’s and women’s esports is steadily narrowing.
