ILLYRIANS kept their hopes of a playoff spot alive on Monday, beating HAVU 2:0 in Round 4 of CCT EU 2026 Series #12. The match, played at 16:00, was a must-win: in the lower group of the round, the loser was eliminated.
Macedonian rifler VAloN and his team came into the match with a 1:2 record after losing to Team ACES and BAKS Esports earlier in the event. Their only win up to that point had come against 6yuBoJlbl in the opening round.
The result lifts ILLYRIANS to 2-2 and sends them into the fifth round of the Swiss-system group stage, where the top eight of 16 teams advance to the playoffs. HAVU finish the group stage with a 1-3 record and are out.
The $25,000 B-Tier event runs until November 1.
