FUT Esports survive NRG, claw out of the Swiss bracket

A 1-1 record on the line

Win or go home. That was the math for both sides in Round 3 of the Swiss Stage at Valorant Masters London 2026, where FUT Esports and NRG arrived level at 1-1.

FUT came out on top, 2-1. Three maps to settle it, and FUT had the answer in the one that counted.

NRG took a map but not the series

NRG made it a series. They claimed a map and dragged FUT to a decider, refusing to let the result come quietly.

It was not enough. FUT closed the door when it mattered and took the deciding map to advance.

The scoreline tells the whole story. 2-1, with the third map deciding who stays in London. FUT answered, NRG did not.

FUT Esports move on. NRG are out.
