Parivision Eliminated from IEM Cologne Major After 0-3

Parivision exited the IEM Cologne Major 0-3 after narrow Stage 3 losses to 9z, Monte and Legacy, ending their tournament on June 13, 2026.

Parivision were eliminated from the IEM Cologne Major after losing three straight Stage 3 best-of-three series. The Russian roster left Cologne on June 13, 2026, with an 0-3 record.

The team opened Stage 3 on June 11 with a 1-2 loss to 9z, then fell 1-2 to Monte on June 12. On June 13 they lost 0-2 to Legacy; both maps in that series went to overtime.

On Inferno, Legacy won 16-14 in overtime after building an early 8-4 lead and reclaiming control following a late flank by Andrei “arT” Piovezan. Dust2 also reached overtime, where Bruno “latto” Rebelatto and Guilherme “saadzin” Pacheco produced multikills that completed a 16-13 map and a 2-0 series for Legacy. Parivision produced late-round responses on Dust2, including a 1v2 from Andrey “BELCHONOKK” Yasinskiy and a 1v3 from Dzhami “Jame” Ali, but did not extend the match.

Individual statistics reflected the narrow margins. Jame finished the event 37-31 with a 1.05 rating. Emil “nota” Moskvitin posted 35-42 and a 1.04 rating. For Legacy, latto ended 52-32 with a 1.65 rating and 91.2 ADR, while Eduardo “dumau” Wolkmer went 50-36 with a 1.34 rating and 91.6 ADR.

After the final match, Jame acknowledged the squad’s relative inexperience on some maps and said: “We’re still a young team with young players, and we just have less experience on the map. That’s all, it’s nothing crazy. They’re just better, honestly. I think it always hurts when you lose. But, I don’t know. It’s a bad game, but nothing special. We just played poor, the same mistakes. But we’re young, we need to learn from this Major, it’s the second Major for us as a team. Nothing bad.”

Parivision arrived in Cologne following mixed results earlier in 2026, finishing 12-14th at PGL Astana and 7-8th at the CS Asia Championships. Their exit from Stage 3 in Cologne matches the team’s first Major performance, when they also left Stage 3 0-3 at the StarLadder Budapest Major.
