LNZ Holtäng cited an off day for the team and a lack of experience in big matches as key factors in the defeat, even though the five-man balance showed improvement.

LNZ warned that Legacy remains unpredictable and dangerous, capable of turning any round with standout individual performances, making the matchup consistently difficult.

MIBR built an early lead on Inferno but could not hold it, and Legacy edged ahead in overtime by performing better in the decisive moments.

The interview framed the loss as part of an ongoing process to solidify a cohesive five-man unit and adapt to high-pressure best-of-three semi-final environments.

LNZ stressed that MIBR should not rely on a few players for victory and discussed ongoing five-man lineup adjustments, including integration of Tomaszin and nqz since June.

He noted the lineup has limited time together, emphasizing the need for trial and error to improve coordination and decision-making across different in-game situations.

MIBR’s first semi-final with the new lineup ended in a 2-1 loss to Legacy after Legacy overturned a 2v5 in overtime on Inferno.
