FURIA team finished the year 2023 quite successfully, winning the Elisa Masters Espoo 2023 tournament and reaching the semifinals at Roobet Cup and PARI Please, where they competed against leading European teams. Andre "arT" Piovezan, the team's captain, hopes that their achievements in these tournaments will be a model for the team in 2024, especially at major international events.
First and foremost, the FURIA leader emphasized that they are aiming to repeat a series of several successful tournaments like they had at the end of last year.
"We hope that we can make a run like we did at the end of the year at big tournaments. We are really hoping for success."
The team's first full-fledged tournament will be IEM Katowice 2024, where the Brazilians will start from the Play-In stage. FURIA's opponent will be TheMongolZ. Last year, in the match for a spot in the main stage, the victory went to the Mongolians. If successful this year, FURIA will face the winner of the Spirit - Apeks pair. However, according to arT, the team's ambitions go much further.
"The main goal is to make it to the playoffs, quarterfinals, semifinals, and possibly the finals. We will take it step by step. I always take it one match at a time, and I'm not worried about it right now."
IEM Katowice 2024 will take place from January 31 to February 11, with a prize pool of $1,000,000. The winner will receive $400,000 and slots at IEM Cologne 2024 and BLAST Premier: World Final 2024.
