CS2: Imperial Fe replaces FURIA at PGL Cluj-Napoca 2025

The PGL Cluj-Napoca 2025 tournament is set to begin on February 14, 2025, in Romania, bringing together 16 top Counter-Strike 2 teams. With an attractive $1,250,000 prize pool, the competition is expected to deliver intense matches as teams battle for victory. However, in a surprising turn of events, FURIA, which is considered one of Brazil’s top Counter-Strike 2 teams, has officially withdrawn from the event.

In their place, Imperial Fe, the female lineup of Imperial Esports, has stepped in to compete at PGL Cluj-Napoca 2025. This is a historic moment for the CS2 competitive scene, as female teams have rarely had representation in S-tier tournaments. With Imperial Fe taking FURIA’s spot, they will now have a unique chance to prove themselves on one of the biggest stages in CS2 history.
