Brazil Region's Road to Worlds - UCS 2024-25!

We’re diving into Brazil’s scene in the United Championship Series. It all kicked off at the Latin America International Championship in São Paulo, Brazil, where three home‑region squads—Dream Max Esports, Tuzzy Esports, and EXILED, which had players from the most consistent team in Brazil since 2022 they split up after Worlds 2024, Legacy (formerly 00 Nation in 2023, XIS in 2022) to battle it out.

Roster shifts:

• After 2024, Legacy disbanded. Their player BabyMazo moved to Dream Max, while Lel, Souto, and Falb formed Tuzzy Esports. Their fifth member, Wulf, joined EXILED for the new season.

Group stage highlights:

• 23 teams were split into groups of four, top 3 teams advancing to a single‑elimination bracket.
  
  

• Technical hiccups (lag, compromised streams) plagued early matches.
  
  

• Upsets abounded: Dream Max lost to EXILED; Tuzzy fell to Dream Max; EXILED stumbled against Tuzzy.
  
  

When the bracket narrowed to six Brazilian squads, Dream Max bowed out to Team YouTube, and EXILED fell to Tuzzy in a dramatic showdown. Luminosity Gaming and Tuzzy both advanced to Sunday’s finals. In the end, Luminosity dominated, claiming the Latin America title—and with it, the first-ever spot for a west‑region team in the 2025 Asia Champions League.
