Thunderpick World Championship 2026 Finals was nothing short of electric. The event kicked off with a huge upset, and ended with a match that kicked off Group B.
From the 8 invited teams, just 2 remained on Championship Sunday. The last hope of Brazil – the defending 2025 Champions, FURIA, and the team they knocked into an elimination game what felt like eons ago – BetBoom Team.
BB Team were expected to fall time after time, but match after match, Boombl4 and the core came back for more. Legacy, ended, Falcons, caged and a 5 map banger of a Grand Finals, BBT refused to have their fuse quashed.
FURIA are the 2 Time Thunderpick World Championship Winners
They were one of the favorites coming in, despite YERKINDAR falling sick. Their main competition, Falcons, didn’t even make it to them. They looked like they would choke away the series and be the latest casualty on the BetBoom Train, but a long game 4 finished just shy of OT thanks to who other than the professor took FURIA, kicking and screaming into Cache.
They led it early, piling on the pressure, once again seeing a battle of 2 minds, Fallen and Boombl4 going head to head. The half ended on a BB win
Coach sidde didn’t want to jinx FURIA when he predicted their winners, but his prediction for a last place BetBoom was just a tad off. Last leave instead.
It was a valiant effort, but in the end, FURIA came in with a heavy crown and a target on their backs – and they showed they could wear both in style.
