The do-or-die match for GamerLegion and FORZE in the BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 resulted in GamerLegion moving onto the next stage of the competition, the Legends Stage. Kamil "siuhy" Szkaradek played a big role in leading the side to a dominant 2-0 performance by dropping a 30-bomb on Inferno during the Challengers Stage. This marked the end of the journey for the Russian squad who are going home empty-handed with a 2-3 record for back-to-back third time. Siuhy’s side reported the win after completely annihilating the side at Overpass (16-12) and Inferno (16-13).
It would be a heart breaking loss for Andrey "Jerry" Mekhryakov who has been looking forward to his first appearance in the top-16 of a Valve-sponsored event. The team also saw a splendid performance from Aleksandr "zorte" Zagodyrenko whose five matches average rating is 1.33.
