Predictions for Day 3 of StarLadder Budapest Major Stage 1

We have prepared predictions for the matches of Day 3 of StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 Stage 1 along with brief analyses of each team’s current form. The winners of these matches will advance to Stage 2, while the teams that fall to a 2–2 score will still have a chance to qualify. Teams with a current 1–2 record will be eliminated if they lose.

Fluxo vs NiP (2–1 bracket)

Fluxo entered Stage 1 as one of the underdogs. However, the Brazilian squad surprised everyone with confident victories in their opening matches against fnatic and GamerLegion, losing only to FlyQuest. NiP, on the other hand, dropped their first match to NRG but recovered with important wins over FaZe and Lynn Vision. Considering NiP’s strong performance, including a 13–8 win over FaZe, they are the favorites in this matchup and have a good chance to advance with a 3–1 score.

B8 vs Legacy (2–1 bracket)

Legacy were among the favorites for Stage 1. Many analysts predicted they would advance with a 3–0 score, but an unfortunate loss to FlyQuest sent them to the 0–1 bracket. Still, they bounced back with wins over Rare Atom and RED Canids. B8 also started Stage 1 with a loss to M80. Their close wins over The Huns and PARIVISION (both 13–11) showed that the team is struggling in key moments. In this matchup, Legacy are the clear favorites. With the series played as a best-of-three, B8 may have a tough time handling the pressure from the Brazilian lineup.

RED Canids vs FaZe Clan (1–2 bracket)

FaZe Clan, who were heavily expected to advance with a 3–0 record, now find themselves in a dangerous position. They won their opening match against Lynn Vision, but losses to NRG and NiP sent them to the 1–2 bracket. FaZe must win this match against RED Canids to stay in the tournament — a loss would eliminate them with a 1–3 score, while a win would push RED Canids into the 2–2 bracket.

NRG vs fnatic (2–1 bracket)

Right before Stage 1 began, NRG announced that their coach would play instead of nitr0. This led many fans to change their Pick’Ems and predict an 0–3 exit for the team. Despite this setback, NRG reached the 2–1 bracket and are now one step away from Stage 2.

fnatic, meanwhile, earned important wins over RED Canids and Imperial, moving them close to qualification. Based on current form, fnatic are the favorites in this match.

PARIVISION vs GamerLegion (1–2 bracket)

PARIVISION started reasonably well — they won their opening match against The Huns, but then suffered losses to M80 and B8. GamerLegion unexpectedly find themselves on the brink of elimination. Painful defeats to RED Canids and Fluxo put them in danger, but their important win over Rare Atom kept them alive. GamerLegion need to play more aggressively to have a real chance at beating PARIVISION.

Imperial vs The Huns (1–2 bracket)

The Brazilian squad started strongly with a convincing win over Rare Atom, but then lost to FlyQuest and fnatic without much resistance. The Huns, despite being considered underdogs, managed to defeat Lynn Vision in a Bo3, keeping their tournament hopes alive. Considering their current form and the fact that The Huns’ only win was against Lynn Vision, Imperial have a good chance to take this match and stay in contention.
