Alex "⁠ALEX⁠" McMeekin's men take home their second trophy in less than a week.

fnatic claimed the trophy at REPUBLEAGUE TIPOS Season 2 after defeating Eternal Fire 2-1. Özgür "⁠woxic⁠" Eker and co. were the only ones to steal a map from fnatic as the British-Swedish mix went undefeated against SAW, Copenhagen Flames and GODSENT.

Meanwhile, Eternal Fire came through the play-in stage and faced a 19-map odyssey before the final. The Turks finished second in their group before stumbling through the double-elimination bracket ahead of their campaign in the main stage. After reaching the playoffs Eternal Fire upset Virtus.pro in the round if 16 before dispatching ECSTATIC and winning a rematch against Entropiq in the semi-finals.

The defeated parties of the semi-finals faced off on Friday for a third-place decider to determine prize pool distribution. GODSENT started the series well on Dust2 but a fantastic offense from Entropiq in the second half saw the Russians take the map 16-11 after a masterful performance by Aleksei "⁠El1an⁠" Gusev.

Ancient was even more one-sided. Despite the Brazilians briefly holding a 6-5 lead they were unable to build a lasting advantage in the first half of play. Igor "⁠Forester⁠" Bezotecheskiy locked down the B bombsite, leaving GODSENT with very few options of attack as Entropiq secured Ancient 16-8 and the series 2-0.

Eternal Fire came into Vertigo as the heavy underdogs but thanks to the heroics of Ismailcan "⁠XANTARES⁠" Dörtkardeş and Ömer "⁠imoRR⁠" Karataş they edged the T side 8-7 as fnatic were not looking completely comfortable on B. A brief lead was recovered by the British-Swedish mix on the offensive but a renaissance from woxic and Buğra "⁠Calyx⁠" Arkın quickly stopped fnatic in their tracks. The Turkish squad strung together five in a row to close their map pick 16-13.

Inferno was a straightforward affair as fnatic took no prisoners on their T side, bullying the Turkish defense on their way to a 14-1 half. Eternal Fire winning the second pistol round was just the silver lining of a very dark cloud as fnatic responded with a force buy win before closing the affair 16-2.

fnatic were once again in control of the series on Overpass as William "⁠mezii⁠" Merriman carried his spectacular form over from Inferno. The Turkish roster was only able to steal the odd round on the defense without gaining any lasting advantage as they trailed 5-10 at halftime. After switching sides to the CT side fnatic only dropped two rounds, closing the map 16-7 and the series 2-1.
