Nigma Galaxy qualified for The International 2026 through the European qualifiers
Nigma Galaxy defeated Yellow Submarine in the lower bracket final of the closed qualifier for The International 2026 in Europe.
The series ended with a score of 2-1. The first map was evenly matched, and it remained unclear who would win until the very end, but ultimately, Nigma Galaxy won several team fights and secured the victory. The second map began with Nigma applying pressure, but thanks to well-executed team fights, Yellow Submarine managed to turn the tide of the match. The third map followed a similar pattern to the second, but this time Maroun “GH” Merheya’s team managed to maintain their lead and secure the win.
