Where Fans Can Catch the Action
In a surprising move, the official English broadcast of the tournament is hosted on Kick, a platform that’s steadily becoming more relevant in the esports streaming world. For those who miss the live thrill, VODs of all matches are being uploaded to YouTube, ensuring fans never lose a moment of the action.
The Playoffs, running from September 19 to 21, pack the kind of drama esports fans live for. From quarterfinals to the much-anticipated grand final, each matchup is a story of grit, strategies, and high-pressure moments that will leave fans on the edge of their seats.
Favorites and Dark Horses on the Road to Victory
The MongolZ, fresh off their win at the CS2 Esports World Cup 2025, have shown themselves as a force to be reckoned with. G2 Esports, recent BLAST Open Fall 2025 champions, are also seen as one of the favorites. Ironically, the bracket pitted these giants against each other early, ensuring that only one survives the first stage of the playoffs.
Meanwhile, teams like Aurora Gaming and Falcons hover in the middle ground filled with potential but hungry for that decisive victory that cements their place among the elite. Aurora has shown flashes of brilliance, while Falcons, with their superstar roster, remain unpredictable, swinging between grand final appearances and stunning disappointments.
For underdogs like Team Liquid, Astralis, FURIA, and paiN Gaming, this tournament is about finding form and confidence. With Liquid attempting to rebuild with new European talent and Astralis still trying to relive its golden days with familiar faces like dev1ce and Magisk, the road ahead won’t be easy. FURIA and paiN Gaming, representing Brazilian esports, bring their own fire, but consistency has eluded them at the biggest stages.
Looking Beyond FISSURE
No matter who lifts the trophy, the FISSURE Playground #2 Playoffs serve as both a proving ground and a launchpad. With ESL Pro League Season 22 just around the corner, running from September 27 to October 12, this event is a chance for teams to fine tune their strategies, test their mental strength, and send a message to the wider CS2 community.
For fans, it’s not just about the winner’s prize money but about watching the next chapter of Counter-Strike 2 esports unfold. Every clutch, every round, and every unexpected twist carries the weight of stories that will be remembered long after the final bomb has been planted.
