Two players. Four opponents. One round that nobody expected Team Spirit to win.

At the IEM Cologne Major 2026, Team Spirit’s donk and magixx found themselves staring down a 2v4 disadvantage against BetBoom Team on June 6. They won it anyway.

How the clutch unfolded

The two players managed to eliminate all four remaining members of BetBoom Team to secure the round.

The victory came during Stage 2 of the tournament’s Swiss group format, a system where teams need to accumulate wins to advance while losses push them closer to elimination.
