FURIA finished their perfect run through the League of Legends 2026 Americas Cup by blanking Cloud9 3-0 in the grand final Sunday in Sao Paulo.
FURIA did not drop a game as they swept through the upper bracket and into Sunday's finale. The matchup was a rematch of an upper-bracket semifinal.
Playing on red, FURIA prevailed in 30 minutes, 33 minutes and 35 minutes to sweep the best-of-five final. Pedro 'Tatu' Seixas of Brazil was named match MVP with an overall kills-deaths-assists ratio of 14-4-23.
Instead of prize money, FURIA are rewarded a bootcamp in South Korea during the Mid-Season Invitational funded by publisher Riot Games.
The four-team, double-elimination tournament included the second- and third-place finishers from the League Championship Series Lock-In and the Campeonato Brasileiro de League of Legends Cup. The winners of the latter two events qualified for the First Stand Tournament, scheduled for next week, also in Sao Paulo.
